Selectman tases Police Officer!!! On Purpose!

by Skip

In addition to doing GraniteGrok and GilfordGrok (and Meet The New Press radio show), Doug and I are on our local Budget Committee.  Well, tonight, the Police Department put on a demo for Taser (as they wish to purchase some for the patrolmen in town – first purchase).

In a word – effective! 

OK, so I went overboard on the title.  One of our three Selectman did tase one of the Police Officers.  I’m putting up the short clip now….a longer one that better explains what the Bud Comm listened to in arriving at their decision will come a bit later over at GilfordGrok

Note: after the demo, listening to the info, the Bud Comm approved the purchase of this capital budget item.

Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom (and how Government is taking that away from us). My fight, from a Conservative (with small "L" libertarian leanings) and evangelical Christian perspective, is with the Progressives that are forcing a collectivized and secular humanistic future upon us. As TEA Party activist, citizen journalist (and pundit!), my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture again.
