Will be interesting to see the outcome of this as they've effectively killed an unarmed man so the IPCC is already investigating. Surely 2 coppers could have restrained him without the need to electrocute him, on the face of it looks like lazy/heavy handed policing especially if the eye witness account is accurate. It's obviously a hard job but looking at some of the coppers that you see at football matches I wouldn't trust them with a truncheon let alone a taser...

Taser is a lesser use of force than a truncheon or pepper spray

There speaks the voice of professional experience. In my days as one of Babylon's finest, on more than one occasion it took three or four of us to control someone much smaller than us due to rage, drugs, drink, don't give a fuck attitude etc.

Whatever we do we should definitely all jump to conclusions without knowing what actually happened. It the internet way of things.
Certainly don't actually wait until there is any evidence as to the course of events.

Maybe he deserved the taser as the coppers were left with no option.
They don't exactly go around dishing it without no reason.

People used to have to make the effort to scrawl a letter in green ink with a mix of upper and lower case, buy a stamp, find an address, go to a post box and trust that the royal mail was not going to lose the letter before sending off uninformed bile. Im so much happier that the modern age allows us to jump to conclusions with absolutely no knowledge of what happened. God forbid we have five minutes to respect the families of the dead before spunking off some 'opinion' without thinking about it. Quick, lets get some opinion from someone who saw him play once, quick lets ask someone who is against the police. Now we'd better balance it lets get someone from the police. QUICK QUICK! we've got to fill the 24 hour ear jizz rolling news quotient. Shut up for 5 minutes everyone. Turn off. its healthy. Im aware you weren't totally serious and Im aware of the hypocrisy of me saying this as I did put the first post up about it.

Haha that was a good rant.
My opinion of it was "oh that's sad, I remember that goal against Wimbledon. Poor fella" then I started looking at dogs in hats.

You must remember the umbrella man if nothing else, good to see Villa fans are going to do something to remember him.
