cop worshipers

ShareThis (CN) - Police Tasered an 86-year-old disabled grandma in her bed and stepped on her oxygen hose until she couldn't breathe, after her grandson called 911 seeking medical assistance, the woman and her grandson claim in Oklahoma City Federal Court. Though the grandson said, "Don't Taze my granny!" an El Reno police officer told another cop to "Taser her!" and wrote in his police report that he did so because the old woman "took a more aggressive posture in her bed," according to the complaint.
Lonnie Tinsley claims that he called 911 after he went to check on his grandmother, whom he found in her bed, "connected to a portable oxygen concentrator with a long hose." She is "in marginal health, [and] takes several prescribed medications daily," and "was unable to tell him exactly when she had taken her meds," so, Tinsley says, he called 911 "to ask for an emergency medical technician to come to her apartment to evaluate her."
In response, "as many as ten El Reno police" officers "pushed their way through the door," according to the complaint.
The grandma, Lona Varner, "told them to get out of her apartment."
The remarkable complaint continues: "Instead, the apparent leader of the police [defendant Thomas Duran] instructed another policeman to 'Taser her!' He stated in his report that the 86 year-old plaintiff 'took a more aggressive posture in her bed,' and that he was fearful for his safety and the safety of others.
"Lonnie Tinsley told them, 'Don't taze my Granny!' to which they responded that they would Taser him; instead, they pulled him out of her apartment, took him down to the floor, handcuffed him and placed him in the back of a police car.
"The police then proceeded to approach Ms. Varner in her bed and stepped on her oxygen hose until she began to suffer oxygen deprivation.
"The police then fired a Taser at her and only one wire struck her, in the left arm; the police then fired a second Taser, striking her to the right and left of the midline of her upper chest and applied high voltage, causing burns to her chest, extreme pain and to pass out.
"The police then grabbed Ms. Varner by her forearms and jerked hands together, causing her soft flesh to tear and bleed on her bed; they then handcuffed her.
"The police freed Lonnie Tinsley from his incarceration in the back of the police car and permitted him to accompany the ambulance with his grandmother."
Tinsley says the cops capped it all off by having his grandmother "placed in the psychiatric ward at the direction of the El Reno police; she was held there for six days and released."
"As a result of the wrongful arrest and detention, the plaintiff Lona M. Varner suffered the unlawful restraint of her freedom, bodily injury, assault, battery, the trashing of her apartment, humiliation, loss of personal dignity, infliction of emotional distress and medical bills."
They seek punitive damages for constitutional violations, from the City of El Reno, Duran, Officers Frank Tinga and Joseph Sandberg, and 10 Officers Does.
They are represented by Brian Dell of Oklahoma City

i was reading the first 2 pages of this and then got bored
BUT

what the fuck

i love flip flops.

what the fuck is wrong with wearing flip flops in the fucking city. sometimes tennis shoes look tacky, flats are sort of dumb looking when youre 5'2", and high heels are way more unreasonable in the city than flip flops.

i agree, socks with flip flops is infuriating.. but i paint my toenails. i want people to see that shit.

People who act like its no sin to drink yourself into sickness, but think you are a fucking urchin if you smoke weed.

Murmer99 06.25.2010 04:36 PM

people.
animal and child abuse.
racism.
homophobia.
Discrimination.
shallow people.
girls that look like barbie dolls and think the world revolves around them.
men with muscles that try to act like they own their girlfriends.
people that listen and support music just because its popular.
Bands and musicians that only want a quick buck.
Fake people.
Motley Crue.

I'm afraid i'm out of ideas.

I love it when girls wear flip-flops, especially when their nails are painted (preferably black).
Of all female footwear, thong sandals are the most alluring to me.

Yes, and I don't get that most of them claim they are "pro-life" while supporting at the same time the death penalty :confused:

!@#$%! 09.15.2017 11:28 AM

it's a fucking epidemic

Rob Instigator 09.15.2017 11:43 AM

The majority of men (50-60%) entering the Roman Catholic seminaries to become Catholic priests come from Catholic orphanages and catholic schools worldwide, where they have likely been exposed to abuse or possibly suffered it themselves as they grew up, and when they are "guided" into becoming priests as a life-career-path they bring their inherited sicknesses with them, to apply to the many unattended young children they now have access too. fucking horrible. They are told that sex is a sin yet they see nuns fucking and sucking, priests fucking and sucking, and experience sexual horror at the hands of these sadistic fucks.
