When I heard about three police offers who wound up using a taser on a pregnant woman in Seattle, my first thought was that the story was some kind of a joke. Cops tasering a pregnant woman? In some sort of attempt to subdue her? For real?! You gotta be kidding me.
Apparently these three officers become enraged when they pulled Malaika Brooks over for a moving violation while driving her 11 yr old son to school, and she refused to sign the ticket they gave her because she didn't want to admit being guilty when she didn't feel she'd done anyting wrong. But in the state of Washington, it's a crimbe to refuse to sign a ticket, so they proceeded to arrest her. When Malaika then refused to get out of her car because she was in her last trimester of pregnancy, the cops must have felt really threatened, because that's when they tased her on her leg, arm and neck. And that's where the case gets even crazier.
Not only was she convincted for not signing the ticket, but after suing the officers because of pain and scars left by the taser, the circuit court ruled in their favor!But apparently getting away with using a stun gun on a pregnant woman wasn't enough for these guys, because now they've appealed their case to the Supreme Court in the hopes of getting a final ruling that they were not in the wrong by tasing Brooks. (Whaaatttt??). Who exactly do these guys think they are? First they use a stun gun on a woman who is carrying a child in her womb, and then after being told it was ok, they want addition justification for their actions? It souns like this has much more to do with the officers egos then with whether or not using the taser was wrong. Honestly, were they really so afraid of this woman and that she might escape and out run them? What a bunch of wusses! I only hope the Supreme Courth finds their appeal as laughable as most people obviously will. Don't you think the cops could have choosen a different method?
The Words that comes to mind, when I read stuff like, are sometimes better left unsaid, It's really upsetting to see, the madness that is going on in our world today, these are people who are suppose to protect, and serve citizens, and look like lately, the ones we need protection from, is most of them, it's getting to the point now, where it seems, this country is becoming a police country, makes you wonder what's really going on, but I have A few Ideas, God allows you to see things, you can't see with the natural eye, when you Believe, and Trust Him, Another Great Topic, to Shine Light On, Never Stop Letting Your Light Shine On The Truth, Love You
