An off-duty Detroit police sergeant who was shocked with a Taser gun in Farmington Hills last week has hired an attorney...I'm a more exclusive "Only One" than you are...
Reed added that Marshall was superior in rank compared to the Farmington Hills officers, and they need to learn respect for their superiors.
Being a mere inferior citizen, how'd you like to have a guy with Marshall's attitude in your face? And do you think the Farmington Hills cops would have settled for tasing you if you refused to disarm?
It's important that we understand our place when in the presence of superiors, you know...
They're all only, but some are onlier than others?

Dum, Dum, Dum, Dum de do wha...
"The two Farmington Hills police officers demanded that my client exit his vehicle," Reed said. "Exiting a vehicle during a traffic stop is not legally required absent probable cause."
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many mere "citizens" Detroit Sgt. David Marshall has ordered out of their cars "during a traffic stop?"
I've been ordered out of a vehicle several times in my life during a traffic stop.
If only I'd been an "only one," I could have complained about that treatment.
Marshall should consider himself lucky. If he hadn't been an only one, he'd have been shot instead of just tazed...
The line made more sense when I realized Reed was the attorney. His job is to build his client's case, both in court and in the media, even it means blurting asinine statements like that one.
ReplyDeleteGood thing ol' Samuel Colt came along, eh? -
