What Happened To The Tasered Pastor?

Whatever came of that? It was big news back in November.

You mean the one that had kids out at a casino late at night? Dont know, guess he was out of line.

He brought all his little children to Langredo and spread the word of Love, Hope, and Happiness.


He became a 13-P right after the REM performance, was Zapped again, and dropped off at the Mobile station.

Oh, he had kids out at night talking to people about God....
Man what a bad influence. :twisted:

Do you guys have video cameras in the mobile station?

Oh, he had kids out at night talking to people about God....
Man what a bad influence. :twisted:

I believe teaching your children how to brainwash others the same way they were brainwashed IS considered being a bad influence. If people want to thump their Bible's they should do it at their church rather than on private property. That poor martyr got what he deserved.

isn't that what officer Boudreaux was doing? why does the other pastor not get the same treatment? because he is not a cop? hypocrites!!

What are you an angry atheist or something? I think tazing a man who
obviously isn't a threat while he's on the ground in handcuffs is excessive.
What happened with him filing a report with IA? Weren't the charges
dropped? How long do you think SPD can get away with this SH**?
You don't hear about BSO, Hollywood or any other department getting
this kind of reputation. The SPD "Trailer" has gotten a lot of attention.

And the codling of the Tribe is pathetic. How many violent, blind drunk
tribal members get escorted home or calmly talked to? But you'll taze,
choke and strike any BLACK, white, brown or yellow without hesitation?

I would imagine the pressure of eating sh** from the tribe must build.
Maybe you should build a bear, a big one and then beat the crap out of it
every time you're feeling down or frustrated.

We are both atheists. You just believe in one more god than I do. If you dismiss everyone else's god as I dismiss yours does that not make you an atheist also?

Crank is an idiot who doesnt know what he is talking about,, he was probably at the hardrock for 5 minutes saw someone get tazed on his way to his cab (because he was so wasted) and all of a sudden, he is going to step in here criticizing what is done, go home, change into your wackenhut shirt,, you will be late in guarding the mall

Pal, drink yourself a nice tallllllll glass of STFU and relax. If you do not like the way we do business, dont go..... every freakin weekend THOUSANDS of people show up and have a GREAT time.... few have to be arrested. Not bad odds. You sir can kiss my ***, its critics like you that get officers hurt.... first you get public opinion on things they know nothing about, create committee's and cause officers to 2nd guess themselves the next time. I say, introduce yourself to us the next time your out and I will personally introduce you to the ground and the nearest broward hospital to treat your wounds.... I have no sympathy for people like you and I would truly like to see how it is that you handle this topic when YOUR family becomes victim to these idiots. Peace out!

Buck,

Victims of what? You guys don't have SH** to do out there. That's the problem. And why would you beat someone down for thinking differently than you? I'll introduce myself, you'll introduce me to the ground Broward hosp..etc etc. I think if you did that you would have to introduce yourself to unemployment and a career change.

No one wants cops getting hurt, but there's a time to use extreme force. Maybe it's not you but there's some people in SPD who are just creating a public relations problem for SPD and the Hard Rock.

Why the hate for a Pastor? What was he doing wrong that would cause him to get tazed? There is NO LAW agains sharing your faith. In Fact, some cops in Broward got reprimanded recently for not allowing a person to hand out pamplets regarding homosexuality. The people were peacefully handing out pamphlets hoping that they may reach someone to let them know that they can change should they want to, and the officers made them pack up and leave. The offiers made fum of the group by pretending to be homosexual themselves, and laughing all the while. Guess What? Those offiers were reprimanded for their actions. Last time I checked, this is still a free country, where Freedom of Religion is still a right. However, with people hating on others who are trying to share their faith , you are violating their freedom of Religion. No one said yopu MUST listen to them or that you must believe as they do, by all means you dont HAVE to believe anything, BUT you have no business telling them that they may not share their faith. A simple No thank you would suffice. This is the problem, Law Enforcement Officers decide that they not only enforce the LAW, but their own OPINIONS as well. This is where you are messing up. Yor opinion has nothing to do with it.

Don't you know that cops are amongst some of the most ignorant people in the world?

1. they think they know everything, some can't speak, write or spell even when using a speak and spell.
2. You pointed this out, as if the power their given to effect the personal liberties of others isn't enough, they want to force their opinions on others as they are the only ones who could possibly be right.
3. Finally, most Police Officers believe they only serve those whom they agree with or tolerate, instead of realizing that they serve the community as a whole, even those people who don't share their views, opinions or beliefs.

If the pastor had the right to come onto private property and preach his nonsense and then when asked to leave refused to do so and now you're up in arms because he got tasered I'm assuming it would be okay if I came to your house and stood on your porch while preaching my nonsense even after you ask me to leave. How about if I went to his church and started preaching my opposing beliefs? Would that be okay?How about if the homosexuals that were handing out pamphlets went and handed them out in the pastor's church? Would that be okay? If people want to be preached to they will go to church. There are consequences for your actions whether you are a pastor or a common thief.

Since when is what hes preaching nonsense? again, that is your opinion. Your opinion is not the law. As I said before, there is NO LAW against sharing your faith with someone. As for whether or not someone was on my doorstep, I would simply say No thank you, as I do to the Jehovas Witnesses that come around. They have every right to be passionate about their faith, and they choose to try to recruit for their Church by knocking on doors, I wouldnt put their face in the ground, and taze them because I dont agree with them.
Also, theres another statement that was made earlier in this thread that is true. The Trabal members get a slap on the wrist for drivig eratically, drinking, getting disorderly, driving without a license, etc... NOTHING is done to them, However, a Pastor gets tazed for sharing his faith. Seems like there are people who want to do their job, but are restrained byt he tribe, so they exercise it on anyone else thay can who isnt "tribal".

You've made it quite clear by your statements that 1. You are not a cop, 2. You definitely were not there to witness the incident. It is not illegal to share your faith no matter how ignorant it may be, but it is illegal to trespass on private property and resist arrest. Get a law book and a clue.

Guestgirl, you are someone who makes cops look bad. As far as law as concerned, which it sounds like you do not know, In order to set up shop and have a demonstration, they have to obtain a permit, I know this because I had 3 calls this month in this type of matter.The other guest was right, If someone comes to my house and I ask them to leave and they do not, I will not give them a hug and ask them to come. Define the words private property. Go outside your house and hug a tree.

first of all, let me set the record straight, Im not a tree hugger. It might sound from my posts that Im a liberal nut, however, thats far from the truth. I certainly can tell you it upsets me to no end to see people who are sharing their faith discriminated against. Sometimes it seems as if the people who have faith have the least rights of anyone in this society. It gets old and it gets wearing. Next, let me say that I have the utmost respect for cops ( all) regardless of where they work, and to answer another question, no, I wasnt there. I do want to say that our world would not be a safe place if it werent for Law enforcement, and in fact it would be complete anarchy and chaos. Next, let me just say this,I do believe that sometimes officers do impose their opinions and sometimes they get to a point where they think that society should listen to them just because they said so. I just hope this wasnt the case with the pastor. If he was out of control, then thats one thing, but if he was just trying to be a witness, and people decided they didnt want him there, thats another. As for the permit thing, Ill have to look into that further. it doenst sound right o me, however, it very well could be. And last but certainly not least, Im not above apologizing. I certainly do appoligize to anyone that I may have assumed wrong about. I just believe that everyone has the right to hear, and if they choose to say no thank you, leave it up to them, dont make the decision for them, thats all Im saying.

As I said in my previous post....if people want to be preached to they will go to the church. I shouldn't have to say "no thank you" to someone imposing their beliefs on me. They should not approach me in the first place. Just like people in the "middle of the mall kiosks" shouldn't approach me. If I want to buy your product or worship your god I will come to you. BUT that's not what this case was about. Nobody was tasered for preaching. This person was tasered because he was told to leave and refused(trespassing). The fact that he is a pastor and was preaching had absolutely nothing to do with it. Had he left when he was told to do so that would've been the end of it. Shame on him for thinking he was above the law.

You know, alot of people will never step foot inside a Church, they know nothing about it, and therefore, people feel the need to get out and tell others outside the Church. The Church was made for believers. The believers are supposed to go out and spread the word to others. As for what he was doing at the Casino, I dont know, but what was he trespassing on? The Casino property? What was he doing that made him have to leave? If it wasnt the fact that he was preaching, then what was it? Who was it that told him to leave, was it the security? Im wondering how he was disturbing anyone. I think I read something in a post that he was crazy or nuts or something, was he off the wall with what he was saying? Im just wondering.

Bothering people, security told him to leave, he refused, police were called, police told him to leave, he refused, he got tasered. If you're so interested perhaps you can go to the PD and request the report. They may give it to you.

Everyone knows what a church is. Believers and non-believers alike.

I appreciate that. Im not sure they will hand over the info, but I could ask, you're right. Thanks.

I think the bigger issue is the abuse of power. It's well documented that he was on the ground handcuffed when he was tasered. There are witness statements and video footage (that will never see the light of day) that tell the all too familiar story of Seminole PD abusing their power. There's plenty of cases where people get zapped with the taser's and die. I love how all of the officers say "we all have to get tasered as part of our training."

That's BS. Officers with certain medical conditions don't. Also of all of the training videos I've seen none of the officers actually has the barbed prongs shot into them. Instead they're attached with clips.

And the other thing that was documented was the bullying and ridicule that the kids had to endure in the mobile trailer. Of course there's no witnesses to that. No camera's in the mobile trailer... I wonder why?

Why are there all of these reports about all of the shady things that go down there? Charging people with BS charges. Why?? Are there any officers on the force that are fed up with this crap. You're supposed to serve and protect. Not use human beings for entertainment and subject them to your immature behavior.

I respect real police officers, not bullies with a badge and a gun.

I respect real police officers, not bullies with a badge and a gun. I AGREE WITH YOUR POST I AGREE WITH YOUR POST THERE IS NO USE FOR ABUSE. IF THE DEPT. DON'T TAKE CARE OF THIS ABUSE THEN FDLE SHOULD BE AWARE OF IT BECAUSE THEY HOLD THE POWER OF CERTIFICATION AND THEY WILL INVESTIGATE ANY ABUSE OF POWER.

It looks like Im not the only one who was questioning this whole issue. I wonder if there really is a video, and if the kids are willing to speak on record as to what happened to them in that trailer. For all we know, it could have been a perfectly civil questioning, or not. I wonder who the pastor was bothering, like was he getting into peoples faces and preaching to them, or what was actually going on? I just wonder.

Guestgirl,,,, you really need to get a life, what is the issue at this point, it is done it is over with, you are the only one stuck on this issue. Maybe this is the most important thing to you in that pathetic excuse you call a life. Get over it, its not the Kennedy assassination. You were not there, you were not involved in the case. Everyone wants to be a Monday morning quaterback these days. It is admirable about your "concern" but there is other issues going on in the world. Have a nice day

How do you know there is no camera in the trailer? Let me guess someone told you and you believe it right. By the way what is a "BS charge"? You right a person who was asked to leave for the 10 th time doesnt and strikes an officer, the officer should continue to ask him to leave right? You complain, but you are probably the first one that uses 911. And FYI there are many officers who get shot with the prongs. You obviously dont know how many lives the taser saves. There are people with confirmed heart conditions in the water that have been tased and they are fine. So next time you should do a little research. As far as people getting tased and die, you dont here on the news that he was hopped up on some much cocaine or some other drug that he was a danger to himself. You here about the few people who were tased and died, but you dont here about the hundreds or thousands that were tased in this country and lived. You dont hear since the taser was introduced, that police injuries are down, suspect injuries are down, no you dont hear that,,, simply because you dont want to. You probably also believe that Gil Grissom from CSI should be at you house if someone steals your cat,, why? because you saw it on TV and that is how you think it is right?

Heres the thing, Im not the only one. There have been other responses besides mine. Thats probably why you are so mad, that others out there actually have the nerve to agree with me. Questioning what happened to a Pastor is not pathetic. Whats Pathetic is that some say that he was causing problems and resisting, and then others who say that he was bullied and tasered for no reason. Heres the deal, Ill call your bluff, if protocol was followed, then post the video of what happened. It looks like you WERE there, and you are in the know. I was questioning what happened to the man and why, and Im sorry that offfends you, Ill be waiting for the video to post.

I bet your pastor would rather be tasered than have to sit in a room and listen to you talk in circles.

You do not see the big picture, here is question for you,, which you will not answer and your response will simply dance around it, you criticize the tazer but lets say bad guy has your loved one at gun point, would you rather have the officer use a taser on the bad guy and incapacitate him where he cant hurt your loved one or himself, or would you have the officer try something else and run the risk of taking a very bad situation and making it worse, YOUR WELCOME. It doesnt matter what anyone says or what any video shows, you will believe what you want to believe and see what you want to see., you will sit watch it, like a film critic with a pad and pencil while wearing your monday morning quarterback jersey and tell people what you would have done in that situation, a situation that you have never been in. But this is beating a dead horse, BUt since i have absolutely no life and live in Fantasy Land where there is nothing going on, you can probably get the video but it will have to be on a film reel. With some luck, there might be a possibility for a Beta cassette. But this is what is important to you. Who cares about children starving in the streets, or healthcare or the economy, You want to know what happened to the pastor. Also I can get you a copy of the guy who was pepper sprayed in front of Lester's back in 1991 and also the one lady who was caught littering on Ocean Drive back in 1986. Whatever, the clock moves forward and maybe you should too

I have no desire to have anyone of any faith preach their views on me while I am out in public with my friends or family. I should not have to be acosted by these "preachers" who believe it is their right to impose their belief on me,.. furthermore I particularly hate it when the mormans come door to door and try to tell me I'm going straight to hell unless I get on board with their belief... If these preachers really want to save souls why not go to the homeless shelters and preach to someone who is need of some spiritual uplifting, PS No Soliciting also means religious solicitation, so please go away
