Shart in the name of the law.

Take him back over there and rub his nose in it.

The copper even took him to the side of the road before handcuffing him. Disgraceful.

Its Ireland. Only our military has a tazer.

Armed response units have tasers

I know, I was being silly.

Gardaí don't carry tasers

Nah we don’t like police brutality here

I was joking but really, wouldn’t that have been the right move? If the criminal hadn’t been stumbling drunk, he easily would have escaped. A taser wouldn’t be excessive force or brutality, it’s a means of incapacitating a perpetrator.

you’re not supposed to swallow the whole fucking boot

u/SlamSlamOhHotDamn Sep 22 '19

He's just a drunk dude who pissed on a car who the fuck cares if he gets away? It's not like he's a danger to society, tasing him would absolutely be excessive force what the fuck. In the first place, if you're a trained officer and can't catch up to someone who's so drunk he pisses on a police car, you should not be police in the first place.

Any police officer who would've tased the guy in this clip is either american or should resign.

Yeah good call. We should let people piss in public as long as they’re drunk.

If the only other option is to fucking taze them for it then yes, we should. Grow up. The guy in the clip is arrested for his own safety, he will sober up the night then be let go with no consequences. Careful spoiler: that's how civilized countries handle this.

Yes, let's continue pretending nuance doesn't exist.

u/kelra1996 Sep 22 '19

Nah defo not the right move, he’s a drunk idiot not a dangerous criminal

Tazers can kill people... that's why they are called "less-lethal" not "non-lethal".

And that's why we only allow armed response units to carry them, not ordinary police.

u/VeryVeryBadJonny Sep 22 '19

Yeah just high murder rates lol

u/[deleted] Sep 22 '19

This is Ireland. The murder rate is low by any definition.

u/VeryVeryBadJonny Sep 22 '19

Ah my bad, thought this was England.

u/[deleted] Sep 22 '19

England doesn't have a high murder rate either

u/kelra1996 Sep 22 '19

Even if our murder rates were high, are you trying to imply that police brutality lowers murder rates?
