If they can tranquilize a 16 ton elephant they can tranquil a crazed man with NO weapons.
I hope they sue this department. The cops are out of control.edit on 28-5-2012 by Human_Alien because: (no reason given)

Police USED to get physical with criminals (and regular citizens). But now that they are armed to the hilt with tazers, shot guns and rifles....they don't seem to be as accountable anymore. And a lot of cops are out of shape and/or overweight. There used to be a standard for a cops' physical condition too. Not anymore.
Listen, son. You don't wanna mess around with them there new '___' zombies.
They'll eat your dag gum face off!
