        @BoingBoing the law enforcement in this country are totally out of control! They have way to much power without much of any oversight.

        @BoingBoing perhaps the Judge should just say "I don't have time for this" and sentence him to death...

        @BoingBoing Screwdrivers can be threats. So? Cops exist to responsibly handle threats. And, yes, sometimes get hurt, so non-cops don't.

        @BoingBoing Made me reconsider the death penalty for a moment. Until I realized that the cop will likely get a kind of wrist slap, at most.

        @BoingBoing good read until 'screwdriver is not a threat'. It's a very real threat. Maybe a little less with the sympathy card next time?

        @xBLASPHEMICx @BoingBoing 3 cops plus the kid's parent versus 1 100lb teenager w a small electronics screwdriver? That's worth deadly force?

        @grey_area @BoingBoing that's not what I said at all. Did you read? I said that stating a screwdriver isn't deadly is not right is all.
