Police taser fan running onto baseball field

He resisted arrested. If I was to resist arrest I wouldn't be surprised if I got tasered. Breaking the law has consequences.

So we're back to the whole"Do what I say bitch or you get whatever's coming to you" schtick.

If someone is waving a weapon or violently resisting then I can see the justification. Being able to run too fast for security just means you need to put your security on a diet.

What about the trespassing charge?

Thats a minor law, so it doesn't matter.

What really happened was he wanted his donuts. He couldn't catch the kid so instead of wasting more time trying to catch him in a normal way he decided to taser him so he could get back to his donuts faster.

During a Philadelphia Phillies baseball game, as occurs almost every day in a televised sporting event, a fan ran out onto the field. The police tasered him right on the field. Did the police do the right thing?

No. Couldn't they just tackle him rugby-style?

They tried. Apparently, tackling this guy was like nailing jello to the wall.

I dunno about you, but that sounds more like an argument for recruiting the kid, not electrocuting him.

Only in America can you be so weak and faggily limp wristed in regards to GLORIOUS JUSTICE! In Soviet Russia he would be shot dead by Local Militia and his body doused in gasoline by loyal Party Comrades. PRAISE BE STALIN AND GLORIOUS NKVD!

Tasers are awesome. They draw law suits without being technically lethal. That's incredibly gay, as I've seen tasers save the lives of law enforcement, security, medical personnel,and patients when properly and rightfully deployed.

DON'T TAZE ME BRO!
DON'T TAZE ME... AAAAAAAAAGH!

DON'T TOEWS ME BRO

But he always gets you. Zap! PPG! I'm drunk.

How would you have seen the tasers being deployed right?

I heard that the fan asked permission from his dad first before running into the field.

If he had a note from his Dad, the cops should have just left him alone.

He looks a little old to be getting permission from his father.

Am I the only one who thought the article was about a fan of police tasers running onto a baseball field?

Good call

Lesson learned:

Thousands of fans did not pay $60 to see some skinny jackass interrupt a game, endanger players by being somewhere he should not have been, and fleeing from security.

Apparently the threat of arrest, ejection, and banning from the park was not enough of a deterrent -- perhaps people won't be as eager to go screw up what could be a definitive play in the game.

$60 for a game of baseball?
