She has to understand how wrong she is.
I think it would have been good for the cop to have advised Granny that she would be arrested if she didn't comply with signing for the ticket.Was it really necessary to tase an unarmed grandma? C'mon now.
After initially refusing to sign the ticket, and before things spiraled out of control, grandma finally concedes to sign the ticket. "Oh we're beyond that", the cop says. What's the point of escalating the situation here by the cop? Just give her the ticket to sign and everyone carries on with the rest of their day.
Defuse the situation.
In quotes means she wasn't "assaulted" but it sounds good?in quotesAssaulted?

Totally agree.
A calm explanation of "Ma'am, it's your right not to sign this ticket. But if you refuse to sign this ticket, then I am authorized to place you under arrest and take you into custody." Instead, when she refused to sign the ticket, he went straight to "Get out of the car."
This escalation simply wasn't necessary. This altercation easily could have been avoided by the officer. Granted it could have been avoided by grandma too, but I'll always hold police officers to a higher standard of doing their job in a professional manner.
This guy was looking for drama. And he was looking for a reason to use force. Big man couldn't restrain a little ol' lady and just HAD to use his taser.
