Just when we thought we were making a shred of progress in America.....Baron "Scooter" Pikes, a 21 year old black man in Winnfield, Louisiana, was tasered 9 times in 14 minutes by a white police officer in January AFTER he was arrested and handcuffed.
You can guess what happened next probably.
He DIED.
And if that wasn't bad enough, now it looks like there is a big cover-up taking place:

And even worse, it seems that Pikes did not do anything to deserve being tasered. An autopsy determined that there were no drugs in Pikes' system, and according to reports he did not resist arrest.
And when are we going to learn that a taser IS a lethal weapon.
Just google "taser deaths" and you can see for yourself.
How long are we going to allow our country to be this sick?
What are our police turning into?
It would be bad enough if this was an isolated case, but these types of stories are showing up now every day.
Please pray for America. We are decaying more with each passing day.
