I immediately turned to my left and began moving away from the source of the electrocution. By the time I got to the back of the vehicle, I had reached up with both hands, grabbed the electrodes, and pulled them away from my chest. The juice then flowed through my arms – not my heart. As I lay here in my hospital bed, I firmly believe this instinct saved my life.

Ouch

LP Activist Shot in the Back by Police; Local LP Throws Him Under the Bus
 
Don't run from the police...

If you seriously thought your life was in danger from a police officer, would you try to get away or would you just lie there and resign yourself to the idea of death just because it was a police officer?
 
Doesn't seem like the local LP threw the dude under the bus, it seems like the dude is an irresponsible ass.

He got tasered after he ran from the police during a traffic stop.
 
THIS guy is the LP candidate for Senate to challenge Reid?

Their candidate selection could be a big reason why the LP gets a bad rap ...

I would never put myself in a position where I thought the police would shoot me...

But I WORK for the police now, and I have yet to meet a single one that would shoot a traffic stop just for kicks.

Maybe I'm in the wrong department?
 
I have a hard time believing the claims of anyone who believes that Obama was born in Kenya and that Bush conspired with unknown forces to plot 9/11.
 
Where in the article did you see that?

Jim Duensing, 2008 Congressional candidate and founder of the Libertarian 9/11 truth caucus Libertarians for Justice, is in critical condition after being repeatedly shot in the back and arm by a Las Vegas cop.

Libertarian 9/11 Truth Leader Jim Duensing Shot In The Back By Police Web of Evidence: What They Don't Want You To Know

Our first Kenyan born “President” was in Sin City on Tuesday trying to drum up support for a Democratic candidate who stood smiling right behind George W. Bush as he signed the Patriot Act into law and who voted for the Bush / Cheney War in Iraq.

After being introduced by Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the Presumptive President, Barack Hussein Obama, if that is his real name, gave another “Yes We Can” speech that would have made Bob the Builder proud.

Don't EVER run from the Police. That in itself is the worst decision you can EVER make regarding interaction with the Po-Po. The minute you run, your guilt begins as well.

I misunderstood when I read it the first time. If he started out by running, then yeah, that's a big no-no.

I am just saying that if I thought a person was going to harm me or kill me, I am not going to let it happen by resigning myself to it just on account of it being a police officer who is bringing the harm.

Yeah, it's really just common sense. Some people just have a bad taste in their mouth thanks to a few bad cops and the Media.
 
You know, I could never tell the difference between those who thought the Government orchestrated the attacks of 9/11 in order to send this country to war & those who would like to see the ambiguities in Article II section 1 of the US Constitution addressed either by congress or a defined by the Supreme Court.

Just like two peas in a pod!
