Tasers in the Outfield - Lemmy.World

A Cincinnati Reds fan is in the midst of being tased by a police officer after running onto the field.

Am I the only one here who thinks the cop was justified?

That man needed to be stopped, 100%. No way what he could’ve done on the field to the athletes, and a taser shouldn’t be deadly when used correctly.

As long as it’s not irreversible damage, I don’t see the harm.

I agree, someone holding a very dangerous weapon (baseball cap) should be stopped instantly.

Honestly I think the cop didn’t go far enough, maybe could have called in close air support instead?

You know what’s another dangerous weapon? A fist. And an elbow. And a knee. And a tackle.

People can be dangerous even without weapons. He needed to be stopped immediately, before reaching any non-security personnel.

You never know! He could have been about to use his laser robot arm to destroy the whole stadium!!!
Sure. Fine. Whatever. Think whatever you want, without thinking of the consequences. OK.
You are the kinda motherfucker to magdump a door when your doorbell goes off in the middle of a day
Great, now cursing. Real classy, random internet person. Bye and have a bad day.
I can’t believe someone would say f*ck on the internet
Saying fuck is a tad bit different from calling someone a motherfucker.
I could call you worse thing, you insane murderous piece of human trash

You’re either 12, or mentally 12.

Either way, bye.
