Whoever you are you fing peice of sh#t you need to go get fu$#ed by the biggest black cop you can find. And while hes #uckin the sh%t out of you mabye he can brake your spine, smash your face into the sidewalk and then stick his night stick up your a$$. OR he could just see you runnin down the street naked and shoot you with a taser. Then you would be dead. HA HA HA. DEAD you fu##in moron. Not raped and alive. DEAD.

No wonder we have war...and fighting with people like you? Are you college educated or a loser?

What is wrong with everyone? A young man died needlessly!!! Total power corrupts...lets hope this never happens to anyone else...fortunately it will...a sheriff's deputy raped a 14 year old around the area and only got probation??? What is wrong with the powers that control??? Don't trust anyone and especially the police.

This tragedy will only be compounded if we refuse to learn from it. Many questions need to be answered. Was proper protocol followed?(If yes, than maybe we need to change protocol.) If protocol was not followed but no laws were broken, then maybe the P.D. needs to administer some administrive discipline to regain the public trust. Was the device used defective? Then there should be a civil redress through the courts. Of course, in a small town there is always the possibility of a good old-fashioned cover-up. In which case honest, hard-working citizens need to step forward to run for office to replace the corrupt politicians. Remember, "The only thing needed for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing". I would submit to you that simply complaining and hand-wringing alone is the same as doing nothing.

I knew someone that knew this kid and the only reason he was dancing out in the street was because he was tripped out on drugs, and that right there is another reason cops should not of tasered him. They should of restrained him. The cops don't even know how many time they tasered him!!!

I agree with you. I know someone here in Margaretville who is originally from Kansas and he said drugs are major there. More drugs than probably in much of NY. I think the police should try and nail the drug pushers instead of getting their jollies tasering someone who is naked. I believe that every police officer who carries a taser should be zapped when they are issued it so they know how it feels and not overdo it on a suspect.

Actually, brainiac, being tazed is part of a police officer's training. They ALL get tazed to know what it feels like.

actually,"brainiac" we have police officers in our family and they DO NOT HAVE TO BE TAZED it is their choice. they do have to be maced or pepper sprayed.
