Police Taser deaf man with mental health problems

The latest Taser controversy comes from Alabama where a 37-year-old deaf man with learning difficulties was zapped with a stun gun when he failed to obey commands to leave a general store bathroom. Antonio Love was also hit with pepper spray. His family has filed a complaint against the officers involved in the incident.

Coming not long after cops in Australia fired on a man carrying petrol and a lighter, who was engulfed in flames, this incident will contribute to the mounting international debate about police use of Tasers.

(AP) – 12 hours ago

MOBILE, Ala. — Police in Mobile, Ala., used pepper spray and a Taser on a deaf, mentally disabled man who they said wouldn't leave a store's bathroom.

The family of 37-year-old Antonio Love has filed a formal complaint over the incident on Friday.

Police tell the Press-Register of Mobile that officers shot pepper spray under the bathroom door after knocking several times. After forcing the door open, they used the stun gun on Love.

Police spokesman Christopher Levy says police didn't realize Love had a hearing impairment until after he was out of the bathroom. The officers' conduct is under investigation.

The newspaper says the officers attempted to book Love on charges including disorderly conduct, but a magistrate on duty wouldn't accept the charges.

All deaf people should be required, by law, to wear a "I'm Deaf!" sign on them 24/7/365 in order to facilitate police in their official duties. It's the right thing to do....

And the mentally challenged need to wear an "I'm Dumb!" sign for their own safety and to facilitate police.

These signs could be the red-letter solution to our economic woes if we mandate that they be made in America.

They should also be mandated for all Obama supporters. The O'bots t'ain't too bright.
