Man dies after being tasered for smoking crack in his underwear

A woman called police to tell them a man was standing outside in his underwear smoking crack. The cops tasered him and he later died.

I guess the moral of the story is don't smoke crack in your underwear.

3. Nope. It just didn't occur to me that this could be real. Copycat was the next...
... most reasonable guess.

4. Help me with the moral of the story...
Next time smoke in the nude? or wearing a clown suit? or while dressed in drag? wearing a silk dressing gown?

That's the darned thing about morals, it seems... Just not clear....:crazy:

10. Which leads me to wonder
In what kind of neighborhood is it okay to smoke crack in your underwear outside? :)

6. I read your subject line too quickly and thought it said something about
there being a croc in his underwear -- a crocodile -- and thought, well hells bells, if there was a crocodile in his underwear, being tasered was the least of his concerns.

9. That is some headline!
No coffee yet and it took me a few minutes to figure that one out. I won't tell you what I thought it said although I am certain I am not the only bleary eyed person scratching their heads over this one. :)

11. Took me a minute to think of
The real story of course is another taser victim. But you can see thanks to that headline, we are discussing the underwear portion of the story. :rofl:

12. Do we think they are going to take tasers back from the police??
It seems to me like it is too easy for the police to reach for their tasers. Back when it was either shoot somebody or figure it out, they took more effort to figure it out.

20. I think they misunderstood the woman...
She said that he had a smoking crack in his underwear.
Please speak clearly when calling 911, people!
