    My cop friend says you yell "taser" to alert other police officers that you are tasering the victim, so they don't touch the victim and also get shocked.

    Victim.

    Common practice. It is supposed to be done so other officers are not holding on to the guy when the electricity starts flowing, so it would only be said when there is another officer present and even then, probably only if they are hands on or within arms reach.

    A good dude that calls people liberal b****es on a message board.

    A good dude that seems to hate anything or anyone that can be considered liberal.

    Seems legit.

    If you're gonna draw your good guy line at expressing unkind sentiments aimed at opposite political party members, you are going to have quite a few more bad guy libs in this forum than bad guy conservatives.

    Minneapolis just announced a 10PM to 6AM curfew for tonight. I haven't heard if Brooklyn Center will.

    One thing I noticed last night was that LE when they were clearing out the protest in Brooklyn Center were telling Media to leave. I get that they want to clear the area but media have a First Amendment right to be there.

    Had to spend some more time out protecting some businesses in my neighborhood last night but thankfully nothing happened. We've taken another cold plunge the last couple of days with temps in the low 30's and snow. I think that's dissuading many of the people taking advantage of the protests to loot.

    Wow, CNN versus leftist protestors. ... must be tough for you to choose whom to root against there, whom to wish bodily harm on, etc.

    Those Tucker fans don't like CNN
    @Os Trigonum

    Glad Tucker is on the Bucks and can play against Harden and Morey
