        Don’t think anyone here is commenting on the morality of the girl’s actions.

        It was already posted once (and hidden by Twitter's overbearing 'view more replies' spam section algorithm), but to reiterate, the taser officer is also African-American!

        TASER is a acronym for Thomas A. Swift's Electric Rifle . It is from a book published in 1911. The weapon in the book fires electrical energy .

        Since not everyone bothers to read the article, this is important to know. The cop is black.

        That MAY BE TRUE - however you have to look at the ROOTS - Many blacks were DISPARAGED - their parents and Grandparents were BEAT DOWN in CIVIL RIGHTS TIMES... NEED I SAY MORE? Did the parents get the REPARATIONS they deserve yet or are we still waiting on the GREAT WHITE HOPE?

        He is correct about that. It wouldn't hurt that community to understand that.
