Brickbat: Papers, Please

Body cam video shows two Colorado Springs, Colorado, police officers using their Tasers on Chad Anderson Jr. as he stood in his daughter's hospital room after he refused to give them his phone. Anderson's lawyer says the man was not under arrest and the cops did not show him a warrant for his phone. Anderson's daughter was accidentally struck by a vehicle as his fiancée pulled out of their driveway, and cops were trying to take his phone as part of an investigation of how the girl was injured. Andersen was charged with resisting arrest and obstructing a peace officer. Those charges were later dropped. Neither he nor his fiancée were charged for the daughter's injury. The police department declined a local TV station's request for comment, citing Anderson's lawsuit against the department.

Police are trained to use violence if a subject refuses to comply with their state or individual whims.

I’m looking forward to the stories of people not showing their vaccine passport getting tazed.

[Quo Usque Tandem]

I’m seriously considering taking my vaccination card to a local t shirt shop and having it copied and printed front and back.

If only to see what happens; and yes, I expect tazing will be a likely response.

[Brandybuck]

Technically that could be a violation of HIIPA.

[Bloodaxe]

HIPPA doesn’t apply to person who received the care.

[Quo Usque Tandem]

Thank you, that is correct. I can out myself all I want [I just can’t go into the hospital computer and access my own health data].

[Malvolio]

I think it is legal for police to Taze anyone who misspells HIPAA.

[Rawel]

“I think it is legal for police to taze anyone.” There fixed it for you.

[DetroitDumbGuy]

This is a great illustration of the kind of “man” that goes into law enforcement. This poor son of a bitch is dealing with an awful situation and these armed thugs attack him for not complying with their unconstitutional (not to mention completely heartless) orders. And you gotta love the resisting arrest and obstructing a peace (HA!) officer chargers…

What’s the point of being a “Hero”™, if you don’t get to kick people when they’re down?

[Quo Usque Tandem]

™? Really? Who holds that, Marvel or DC?

[Longtobefree]

Well, yet another reason they should not have moved the all-star game.

Sue the shit outta them, and expect more of this while democrats are in control.

[Will Nonya]

“expect more of this while Democrats are in control”

Ya, because that’s what drives it. It’s not like these cops were likely there under republican control or that both parties support the countries move toward antiliberal authoritarian regimes

[Jerry B.]

Look at the cities where people have been killed or injured by police. They’re overwhelmingly Democratic.

[jimc5499]

Bingo.

[Quo Usque Tandem]

“They’re overwhelmingly Democratic.”

And will remain so until the bitter end.

[De Oppresso Liber]

Like all productive cities. You guys think that the centers of economic, scientific, and cultural importance all being run by democrats is some kind of feather in the cap of republicans. Couldn’t be further from the truth.

Where are Ben Crump and Al Sharpton?

[Jerryskids]

Don’t want to be treated like a thug, don’t be standing around with a phone like a thug. Of course, if you say you don’t have a phone, that’s a tasering right there because only thugs will deny they have a phone.

[GroundTruth]

One more reason to not carry have a smart phone.
