RE: Virginia Cops Pepper Spray & Taser Man Suffering From A Stroke
Avoiding the police is generally a good idea. A great year is one when you never have to talk to them about anything. They are emergency-only personnel in my book.
Quote:Shaun Jergens confronted wrong-way driver David Washington after reports of a hit-and-run in Virginia earlier this month, the New York Daily News reports.
Washington had ploughed through a city road sign and eventually struck another car before his Hyundai came to a stop in the middle of an intersection near a university campus.
When officers arrived they found 34-year-old Washington still in his car. He refused to comply with officers' demands to show his hands, police said.
Quote:"I believed that the suspect may be looking for a weapon or looking to conceal a weapon based on this information and the fact that he was believed to be fleeing a felony (hit and run of an occupied vehicle)."
Police, who found beer in the back seat of the Hyundai, believed the victim was under the influence of alcohol or drugs, according to Washington news site WTOP.

Of course if he hadn't been having a stroke and pulled a gun and shot the officers, then the police haters here would have no police to blame.

Now the real story.
Jurgens resigned from the department on May 14.
"The use of force demonstrated in the incident involving Mr. Washington was not in compliance with department policy or training," said Captain Rick Pennock in a news release. "We take matters such as these very seriously and require that officers at all times exercise appropriate restraint and good judgment in their dealings with citizens."

He should have resigned before the incident since the department has a policy that puts officers in danger.

What a ludicrous statement to make. I guess they should shoot every person in diabetic shock for good measure?

Some symptoms of a stroke are:
Slurred speech
Loss of control of motor functions
Disorientation, confusion or drastic change of mental status, including irrational belligerence and/or violence.
What else causes those same symptoms?
Incidentally, diabetic shock.
Intoxication
When you are on the side of the road with your life in the balance you do not have time to do a clinical analysis.

Yep. There are a lot of great cops and a lot of terrible cops.
