So he jumps through an open window into the back of some unknown females car who then calls the police...he probably went to the hospital, they classified him as drunk or whatever, and he was returned to police custody to sober up in the drunk tank. He busts free and is threatening police...unfortunately he died, but at least all he got was tazed and not shot. Total agreement that tazer can do harm, and chances are his medical condition at that time might have compounded the effects...but pray tell...the young man is loose in the police department, hurling projectiles at officers...what do you want them to do...pile on top of him and beat the crap out of him while they try to subdue him? Just curious as to how you think this should have played out in a more 'civilized' manner. And I mean no ill will to the dead here, that is tragic, but I cannot see where the police force did anything out of order here...given the information we have been presented. Sadly, everyone always has to jump up and down and scream he's only dead because he's a black man. Very sad commentary.
Yeap...the PLP are among the worst in handing out cash or 'gifts' for votes. People must be desperate and seriously wanting some 'change' if they were bought for only $25.
@John and SP...what part of the rest of the story did you miss...when they opened his jail cell he busted free and into the public area and proceeded to assault officers and others by grabbing what he could basically and throwing it at them. I'd tazer the mo-fo as well!! I do agree in one respect though, clearly he was hopped up on some sort of drug and should have been kept under medical watch and supervision. Black white pink or purple nothing in this story would have changed given the 'story' as presented.
As is always the case, the big businesses will bend over backwards...or frontwards, whichever way they are gonna take it and try their hardest to play by the rules and pay it...while the rest will dive duck and dodge and get political/friend favours and get conveniently overlooked.
