Use of Force

Okay so on December 15th I had a rather bad experience. I apparently had an icky reaction to some medication mixed with Sparks. Sparks is not appearing to be such a good idea anymore. In my opinion, the powers that be meant for you to pass out when you drink. Getting drunk and being full of energy can lead to bad bad things.

Such as Tasers. Yes I was tasered. And not by a good friend goofing off and desiring me to smash them in the face. By the PO LEECE. Near as I can recall I was pulled over in Vinton. That is where things get hazy. Wait, I am not going to lie, most of the night was hazy. But in the spirit of good luck, this was one of those nights it failed me. I was NOT drunk. I was on meds that you are not supposed to drink on. Apparently I had the 'mother of all bad reactions'.


Near as I can remember this is what went down.

Cut Scene

Riding in unidentified friends van.

Cut Scene

Riding in unidentified friends car.

Cut Scene

Riding to unidentified friends house.

Cut Scene

Police flinging me from unidentified friends vehicle telling me I smelled like a brewery. (I had one Sparks around noon that day, this was around 11pm)

Cut Scene

Police asking me if I would take a BAC and making comments assuming I wouldnt.

Cut Scene

Naked wrasslin with jail deputies.

Cut Scene

Taser lines comin' right for me!

Cut Scene

Locked down naked in the Hannibal chair.

Cut Scene

Waking up 2 days later, naked and cold in a cell.

Sorry NAACP but this entire incident proves that you can recieve unneccesary use of force without being

A) Black
B) Male
C) Underprivledged

I was covered in bruises from head to toe, and now instead of being forced to check with my doctor about having a bad reaction to medications, I am going to have to undergo Pre-Trial drug testing. No biggy seeing as how I wont fail those, but the point should be obvious. No one is immune to the royal shit treatment where our government is concerned.

    Feel free to use anything I have written on the blog into anything you would like. If you need further details please dont hestitate to ask.

    And any American in their right mind would fear our government, people who dont fear our government... well we just call them Republicans.

  4. Of course Chris. But having said that, I also believe you to be one of the few 'good cops'. By that I mean, I dont FEEL like you became an officer to wield power over civilians. Considering I and every other civilian American owes you respect and acknowledgement for our freedom, then I have to say I'd always feel compelled to listen to anything you have to say, biased or not. That is just the person I am.

  5. First of all, your a redhead and i taz all redheads.... y'all fight way dirty! Just kidding.

    Now bare in mind this is Texas law and might vary in your state.

    DWI = Driving While Intoxicated
    To earn the charge you need to meet the criteria. 1. Operate a motorvehicle 2. In a public place 3. While Intoxicated.

    Having met the first 2 we'll go to the third. Intoxication is caused by the introduction of alcohol, drugs or a combination of both in such a manner that it causes the person to lose control of their mental and physical faculties.(sp)

    So by deffinition (in the GREAT State of Texas) you have met all criteria for DWI :(

    I wont comment on why you were stripped or chaired but I know in Texas it takes a propensity for violance, desire to cause ones self or others harm or threats of scuicide or homicide to get chaired. We didn't even chair the crazy guy for smearing poop on the windows.

    You my love had a bad week with the cops, and I really don't know if the did wrong or just did their job. However I would contribute it all to mixing the drugs and alcohol.

    I think your a wonderful beautiful woman who had a bad day that wouldn't stop. I'm guessing that you had a bad detox also and that is why you were stripped and strapped. I hope it never happens again. If you need me you know where to find me :)

  6. Hmmm... My first question would be what was the PC. Any good laywer would attack PC first bethat if there is not proper PC, then the rest of the arrest is null and void.

    Here in Austin there was an incident about a year or so ago that kind of touches on a similar subject. Bare with me, the circumstances are hugely different but the principle is the same.

    A mentally retarded person was upset and holding a knife. The person she was mad at was a few steps away. When the officer responding arrived that was the first thing he saw. While verbally trying get the mentally retarded person to drop the knife, she charged the person she was mad at. The officer shot and killed her.

    I know this is an extream case, but we are not equipped with the schooling to handle all aspects of life and trama/drama that we come across. The people that are ofcourse are doctors who have had years and years of schooling.

    When faced with a violent situation, our response must be immediate. So often are we critized and scrutinized for making decisions in a fast paced situation. After every tough situation i have been in, i catch myself second guessing myself sometimes for days. Most protocol is to get them to the jail asap so they can be treated by the jail medical staff simply because we dont have the training.

    Why don't we you may ask? I don't know, maybe we should. But there is only so much you can stuff into a persons brain and expect them to genuinly retain. It's a lot just to remember the law and the proper execution of it as you come across each randon infraction or violation. Nothing is ever the same and the preasure is spine crushing. You do your best when the moment presents its self.

    I don't want to sound like i'm on anyones side in this, i'm afraid you may think i'm attacking you but thats not my intension at all. I have seen extream cases that required the treatment you recieved but i don't know enough details to say you warrented it. I would never guess another officers actions when i wasn't there to witness them because i don't feel the way he felt or know the things he knew. However, his statement may be damaging in court. I know i have never smelled alcohol until i walked up to a person sitting in a car. I have never smelled it when they drove by and used it for my PC.

  7. Did you know that the percentage of attractive women who get traffic tickets is far lower then those who are heavy and catagorized as unatractive. That if you are speaking in public and you are easy on the eye you are more listened to then some one who isn't no matter how qualified you are. There is so much pre prejudices against people that our society has created by the media, socialization, ethnic and gender labeling. Its pretty laughable.
    Wouldn't life be so much better without labels, stereo types, gender biases or hate...
    And I for one am scared to death of our government because they are the ones that decide what rights I am entitled to as a human being.
    Pretty shitty deal imo.

  9. Jesus fuckin shit ass. I'm drunk as shitt-bitch ass, and need to say something.

    I still say you're hott, and fuck American law enforcement that try to go insane with power. Some are good, most are crazee once they get their legal right to flash a gun in public. Glad I'm not down there, I'd be shot right now if I went in public.

    Shitt, I'd be freaked of your government, them psycho terrorist-hunting cock-bitches. Shit, yeah for bad language! Then I'm the bad guy.

    I'm quite drunk, but I still say you're hott, and I'd get you naked if I were a cop, but only in my own house ;)



    Hmm, is that out of line? Oh well, fuck republicans, fuck whatever the opposite is, fuck everything. Except having good times. That fuckin' is the best shit fuckin thing in the world.


    Maybe I shoudn't have typed this. HMm. Hope you're all good sweet red-head mistress.
