I am glad to see Prescott go! I hope he does not make it in the house. He will say what you want to hear, lie in your face, and then talk trash about you behind your back! He was the worst commissioner for Osage County. oh yes, he has been caught talking trash on people, especially the Sheriff's department that he has lied to over and over again! He has no interest for anybody except himself!

that chopper when running can do the job of 5 to 10 police officers. the chopper is grounded because of the the chiefs decision right now. not the city councils. the chopper is a valuable tool for tpd, khp, sn county, and other surrounding counties. I am glad that it will be flying again. TPAC is too expensive and there is never anything good going on there anyway!

Well if he would have just did what the officers told him to do then nothing would have happened either. the security at goodyear called the sheriff's department because they saw him as a threat to people on the road and to himself. you cant blame the officers for doing there job. if they would have known about his medical problem they probably would have approached it differently. goodyear security got the sheriff's department involved. if you want to blame anybody, blame them for not being able to handle the situation. Where was his friends at goodyear. how come they didn't do anything? everybody is so quick to blame the police for everything that goes wrong and the media is just to blame to!!

Once again that taser was not the case of his death. WIBW has the report. A taser is not a lethal threat. all your googles also show that everyone of the suspects died of some other medical condition.

lethal threat! You got to be kidding me. A taser is less lethal than pepper spray. I hope that you do not respond like you say you will because you will not see a taser then. There has been no deaths that a taser has been in fault for. Taser International will not settle out of court for any and they have not lost a court battle since. It was unfortunate that Ed had a medical problem. Goodyear employees could have called someone else instead of the Sheriff's department but they didn't. I 'm sure that the Sheriff's department tried to talk this guy down but he decided to fight with the officers. A taser is one of the best tools that the Police force has and will be in the future. Sounds like you need educated more than Wondermutt. Did you know that for a officer to carry a taser they have to be shot with it. Dont you think they know what it feels like. I have not met a officer yet that wants to use force on anyone. they do it when they have to stop someone from hurting others or protecting themselves. Officers do not even associate the word kill in there education. with him getting ready to drive off he may have killed someone else out on the road. Officers do not kill, they protect and serve. to say they kill is your ignorance and your lack of education. i guess if i want to be educated on tires i will call you. As for the media, they will take this as far as they can. the pictures of a taser in the news, the headlines of being shot with a taser and dies, they have no clue either.
