Police Taser Great-Grandmother During Traffic Stop

This one was just unbelievable...

In what looks to be a case of police brutality, a 72-year-old Austin, Texas great-grandmother was tasered after apparently refusing to sign a ticket during a traffic stop.

Police insist that they were doing everything by the book, but using a taser on a senior citizen at a traffic stop strikes one as excessive use of force.



The video showed the whole thing, the cop even pushed the lady pretty hard then warned her and then tazered her. Just who wrote this book that the police officer was following?? Ok, the grandmother was being a little stubborn, and wouldn't sign the ticket, The police officer is a much larger person, why did he feel the need to use the tazer? A tazer is a weapon, this an unarmed, albeit unruly, 72 year old woman... what gives?

Thoughts?
