Police Taser a Man In Vancouver Airport

[FrankeeFraud]

Attention Polacks: NEVER fight with someone who carries a gun, period. Cop showed remarkable restraint in just tasering his kielbasa-licking ass. Sorry he died, of course, but that's one of the many hazards of acting like an asshole.

[BWAlucarD]

If I were his father, the only thing I'd think about would be, who I'd kill first, the retarded officers or taser lobbyists/CEOs

[dorgaorfa]

@BWAlucarD Your an idiot kid

[ahmed337799]

Fucking cunts, they were never prosecuted, never disciplined, but when an officer dies, the whole country mourns them and praise their "heroism" and their "service".

Don't forget the morroccan man who was shot multiple times in the head, because he was wearing a traditional robe and the police "thought he had a gun in his pocket", ofcourse he had nothing.

[gksrltnr1004]

fuck Candians, pretending as if they are the nicest people in the world

[dorgaorfa]

@gksrltnr1004 I hope to god you're not an american...

[chrisbudi]

Shitstickrcmp your a fucking jack ass. Your the kind of person that would cry like a little bitch for the police when your getting robbed and beat up. But watch a video where you dont have all the facts and make a stupid ass comment.

[marcianogp13]

"can I tase him" its like my kid asking me if he can play with his xbox after school, all anxious with his eyes wide open. That aint a toy MF, its a non lethal weapon and this dude couldnt even understand, what a lack of professionalism

[megadude610]

fucking moronic police "can i taser him?" without even getting a translater. HAVE ANY POLICE MEN EVER SEEN THE MOVIE 'THE TERMINAL'!?!? god i feel so sorry for the mother...

[Basebalsucksplaylax]

He didn't pose a threat??? He was throwing crap around, who cares if he doesn't speak English, it's America you have to abide by our rules just a any other person would in there country, and ya dude I wanna see you pull a gun out on a cop...talk about stupid. This was at an airport to...everything is at a higher rusk there

[12reece123]

i tell you what tazer happy cops should have the tazer stuck in his as with the prongs touching his balls and then be shocked the age the vicim was ie 36 = 36 times tazerd

[billyjoelmartin]

yea that is why people have to carry guns so if cops over react we can react back fuck them

[Almostbakerzero]

fucking bitches!!!!

it really hurts me to see how this assholes treat the poor guy.

[sammy11232003]

taser happy cops should be shot

[colorak]

the guy was only polish spoken, in canada west if you don't speak any english, you better watch out !!!

[JonnyNapalm123456789]

This is almost an apologist piece for the police. Put yourself in this man's shoes: a stranger in a strange land, detained without any understanding of why. I'd be frightened, too. I think this is really an example of police doing what they're trained to do, which, depending on your politics, is either a success or a failure; with an unintended outcome . IMO, the police are no longer meant to protect and serve, but rather govern and subjugate, in which case they get off with a wrist slap.

[GuidoBuschwald]

learn language before you travel, who cares if he wait 10? Didnt he watch Terminal before he travelled!

[ahmed337799]

@GuidoBuschwald

wait till this happens to your family asshole

[GuidoBuschwald]

The Vancouver Airport Cops didnt bring him to Vancouver, so the guy should asked for telefone to ring his mom with even hand sign. I believe the cops thought the guy is soviet agent.

[AssduckTheScientist]

The YVR airport is full of bullshit people like the fucked YVR police and that fucked up immigration assholes! They fucked with me in 1 fucking hour in the passport check because they did not belive that i am the person on the passport. It was a fucking ugly whoman with glasses and a fat asshole. Then they called my uncle, and he said that they should stop shittin with me. Then after that fucked toll customs they said it is OK and i can go. Biggest fucking waste of time in my life! ASSHOLES!

[boss351dude]

One cop later ran over and killed a motorcyclist. Without even checking to see if the person was alive, that POS cop fled the scene on foot. He threw his license at someone when he was confronted. When the cops arrived, they took their time getting to the DRUNKEN cops house, This gave him a chance to make up his alibi: He was stressed out from the accident and began drinking at HOME. This story was covered up as expected. Pieces of CRAP COPS.

[HUTINAK]

I didn't know the Chief of Police in Vancouver was Chief Wiggum

[erokk4]

are you allowed to bring a stress ball into police training incase you need it for this?

[ethuglol]

hahaha canada is such a piece of shit

[kristallklar1]

Ban tasers!

[jantubaman]

again an example of a good reason for not going there canada and U.S. are really fucked up way too agressive go away from the world and make war in your own country

[Williej1219]

Hi I''m from russia and i think its a good idea to thow a stool at a glass window in an airport post 9/11 and take a computer and throw it. LALALA U fucking idiots did u want to wait and see if he attacked someone first OR would u like those who are supposed to take control of those situations do thier job??? Kinda sad he's dead but not really. One less idiot to reproduce thank God.

[SFO14]

Apparently he was held up in customs for hours and his mother was told that he never arrived. A lack of communication (i.e. no interpretor) are to blame for this. Too much force was used, period

[Williej1219]

So ur saying that this is how u act if u can't communicate with someone in another country? Fuck, you would be lucky to just get tased. Should they have offered him some milk and cookies? Maybe he would have choked on em and then that would have been too much force too. All u fuckin pussies out there need to wake the fuck up, this is the real world where real shit happens. Maybe he should have learned a little of the local language (i.e. translation book??) Before actually travling there?

[Williej1219]

No no no, that would make too much fucking sense right? Instead of his stupidass got exactly what he deserved. Next time u go through and airport go ahead and throw shit around and scream at everyone around u AND please make sure someone is recording when u die cause that shit would be awesome.

[Williej1219]

period.

[SFO14]

He was also there for about 10 hours apparently, and exhausted from travelling. I don't blame the guy for being frustrated. Perhaps knowing a little english could've helped him out, but I have relatives who have visited Canada numerous times from Eastern Europe, they don't speak much English. If airport security tased my uncle after a 9 hour trip, held him up for hours and told him I never arrived, I'd be pretty pissed.

[SFO14]

correction: if THEY told ME he never arrived...my bad

[AL3Xmotodude]

ok i see your point. But they tased him more than once, 50 000 fucking volts is enough to bring somebody down.

[hamrite]

Authorities loose all credibility with that type of crap, what a bunch of uncourageous retards

[makostos]

fuck the black cop, what he thought he was gona get more love, or he thinks his robocop!

[makostos]

this black police , felt like if he did that his white co workers would like him

[norcalforlife707]

just like on dave chappelle.

[chinooks]

obviously!! taser killed...not protected!! get rid of them.

[7777luckboy]

this poor man got killed by those suppose to protect.. all they had to do was ask in a kind manner ,, coffee??? could nt these nazi cops see this poor man was just lost and a little confused.... just dumb fucks.. tasing a poor man who just wanted to go home to his mom.. they have got to be real stupid

[rynenotryan1]

haha nice

[carbonseven1st]

come on, i will phuck u up u pussy

[gin5sey]

fuck the american police

[MarkCoupe08]

through the view finder of one individual?

its gunna be the same who ever saw it

[inkey2]

that was LUSCIOUS

[Mariontl]

Airport officials should have provided an interpreter.10 hrs waiting at an airport would make anyone irritated,let alone someone with a language barrier. There is NO JUSTIFICATION for firing even one taser shot. This man was not hurting anyone and there were FOUR RCMP officers versus 1 tired,frustrated man.

As an Australian born immigrant to Canada,and a Canadian citizen, I am embarrassed and angered by the behaviour of these 4 RCMP members. My heart goes out to Paul's mother.

[midianholic]

Hear hear and how typical of the Police to lie about what happened prior to the film coming forward.

[jtotyler]

not complying with more than three commands is automatically justification for being tased paper sprayed and or batoned.

[HansTrein]

The way I see it, this is murder the same way than if you murder someone taken at random from the street.

Lots of murders are "accidental" and people gets convicted anyway.

[middletech]

Good for the Canadian Police. I didn't think they had the balls.

[jtakken777]

Sporadicifre, ever been to Vancouver little buddy? If the "police" were doing their job they would understand that in the van airport(of all places), there would in all probability be many polish speaking people who could translate.

Why do you think "police officers" are human beings and not robots? Because human beings are supposed to have the ability to make decisions based on common sense and not "Non compliance = Force" mentality. Step up to the plate, cultivate some human compassion, god...

[jtakken777]

This video makes me loose all faith in the police. They are supposed to serve and protect. Those officers should go to prison for life; they basically gang murdered an innocent man. I don't understand why it takes so little to become an RCMP officer. It ought to take years of physical and mental training. Those murderers are nothing but street thugs with a badge and a gun; I'm now well convinced that all police officers are the same save a very small percentage who take their job seriously.

[TheRealPieDictator]

wow. all the cops are big guys too lol, they feel that 4 of them can't take on a guy who just got tazered and is already on the ground huh?

[jrBunny1979]

If four RCMP officers can't tackle 1 guy to the ground and put handcuffs on him, maybe those four RCMP officers are in the wrong line of work. These four RCMP officers need to be charged with manslaughter, the fact that they have not been disgusts me. It makes me sick to my stomach knowing that these four men are still working as RCMP officers. My heart goes out to Roberts friends and family.

[phyerdragon76]

There SHOULD have been translation services available for him...not make him stand around without a clue what or where to go.

A simple touch screen computer system in the terminals, you touch the flag where you are from, it gives/prints out what you need to do and where you need to check in within your native language....

This was a senseless death and I hope every one of those taser happy cops rots in hell! And the future ones too....apparently it IS lethal force.

RIP Robert

RIP Robert

[EuchridEucrow1]

" He consciously made the decision to resist.

People it is simple : Non compliance = Force "

How do you comply if you have no idea what they want you to comply with?

[omardude39]

@EuchridEucrow1 Absolutely right, the bystanders have plenty more common sense while these guys are just bastards. Should've thought twice while there was a camera around.

[Masoukishin]

@EuchridEucrow1 yes tasering is okay taser doesnt kill u but the cops used extra force... u see that one guy that put his knee on the back of the mans head? u dont do that. There are blood vessels that get cut off if u do that someone would die. GO LEARN ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY THEN COME BACK AND COMMENT.

[EuchridEucrow1]

"...they used a intermediate weapon, a taser, its less than lethal."

Apparently not.

[chonchoz]

Don't speak any English, then shut your fucking mouth and behave or you will get killed!

[carbonseven1st]

i speak english and i will phuck u up little man

[snate000]

They could have temporarily sustained him with handcuffs...

[Sporadicifre]

that and dont fuck with folding tables in Canada

[Sporadicifre]

At the start of this report you are positioned to feel sympethetic towards the man. Without the voice over positioning you he is just a non cooperating, distressed individual. He consciously made the decision to resist.

People it is simple : Non compliance = Force

[Robhiii]

And they could have used different tactics they attacking him onsite with a taser.

[Robhiii]

The thing is, there was really nothing else they could do,he could not have been able to understand them. but they did not need to shoot him numerous times.

[cokerham108]

they used a intermediate weapon, a taser, its less than lethal. What do people want from the police, to do nothing, tasers dont kill, heart conditions the officer has no way of knowing kill. tasers save lives everyday, im sorry for the family, he needed a Mental Health Officer who spoke his language to talk to him, and get him a psychological evaluation. Must policies state refusal to comply with orders is the only justification needed..not physical resistance.

[FSK1138]

four armed cops --one unarmed guy--

they could have pepper sprayed him

[sackmajik]

cunts, this is why NO ONNE RESPECTS the police. Didn't need to happen, all they had to do was take the time to TALK to the guy. And I'm pretty sure when someone is having a seizure on the floor, u don't need to use the gun again

[enzo0master]

How the hell is it possible, that there is no way to communicate with someone arriving from a foreign country other than english????

[onkelzfighter]

what woud you do scubasam77 , if you whaiting for bagage for 10 hours and all ignorate you, he?? shut up you monkey!!!!

[scubasam77]

i wouldn't throw shit around the airport for starters. i'm glad you brought us all back to third grade with the namecalling. grow the fuck up!

[onkelzfighter]

fuck the fucking police, fuck them if i see some day a police officer like thouse people which force me for nothing i kill them bastards!!!

[skrillahG]

I hate cops, those bastards that did that to him deserve to be shot

power tripping juiced up idiots who like to beat up others cuz they were picked on in school

[therkonb1]

yo fuckin talkshiters just take a break all i know is that............FTP...........­.FUCK THA POLICE and stop talkin like pussys

[angryexpat]

cowards and idiots, are these guys "canadas finest" or just a bunch of wankers with weapons.

[acrabb1]

Idiots, thats all what I can say about this canadians. Stupid Nation

[scubasam77]

the man was violently acting out. tasers by themselves do not kill, that is why it is considered nonlethal use of force. these officers were acting appropriately to subdue the violent outburst

[angryexpat]

youre a dickhead, "violently acting out" ooooh yeaaaah, lets throw them in the gas chambers, or guatanamo bay or just taser them.

[himsanjun]

The police could use other forces than 50,000V taser. And I think there is a controller for voltage on many new tasers. I guess Canadians are not only poor enough to buy the new tech, but also stupid enough to use super high voltage to kill a person.

[canman5060]

50,000 volt with 0.001 amp won't kill.

[jedimon123]

agreed the guy went into shock and died that way i'm sure. He was already distressed of the situation. almost to the point of crazy

[rwir]

hey

canadians are just in the same country as those officers

not the same family or people

u never know those guys could be your 12 cousin 8 times removed or something

and also us canadians hat those officers too

[aidgdd]

Stupid Canadians, U think that nobody is watching at you motherfuckers, U never take participation in serious war, so U allways have everything in the ass..

[padraa]

too bad the guy wasnt deaf/mute then all you idiots wouldnt be able to bitch about immigrants. or maybe if he was mentally retarded.

the cops arrived, agreed to tase him and 30 seconds later he was flailing on the floor.

taser international agressively markets these weapons as non-lethal. every time someone dies it proves them wrong.. they should be made to PAY

[funkehduck]

aww poor man, I don't get why they couldn't get a damn interpreteur this COULD have been prevented =.=

[shitstickrcmp]

trigger happy rcmp pigs, the one clearly asks to use the fucking tazer before they have even approached this guy. fucking "PIGS", what a good term for all of them

[angryexpat]

indeed, pigs do as pigs be.

[dorgaorfa]

@shitstickrcmp You're a fuckin idiot kid, if a guy is standing IN AN AIRPORT (remember 9/11, apparaentley not) With a chair, obviously disgruntle, and foreign, are the cops gonna ask him to sit down and have a chat? FUckin moron if this was the US, he wouldve been shot on site and the cops would have been giving the medal of fucking honor, so don't sit behind your computer and discrace RCMP you lil kid. Another thing...tasers TAZE people, there is no "kill" mode on a taser genius

[purgerecords]

a perfect example of not only how fascism is again rearing its ugly head, but how canada is no longer a safe haven for disenchanted yanks.

google "naomi wolf the end of america"

[Canadian039]

hey thats cool i wish i was there lol fucking immagrants cop's CANADIAN cops should be more mean to them things called immagrants!!!!

[rarebasses]

These policemen should hang. Very shameful.

[Brafmah]

Canadian police is a bunch of cowards just as the brasilian police are or any other police in the world!!!!

[Stiyl10]

Really? Go search "Brazil Police Brutality" and have a look there before you call the Canadian police a bunch of cowards. At least the cops here don't take wooden bats to people awaiting questioning or drag suspected criminals behind parked cars and execute them.

[carafuck]

thouse fucking police r cowards, they needed 4 or 5 men to get the guy, it was too simple strategy and patience and find someone that speak his langage, he would be ok. thats the wright way to do things.

well but in my country ( Brasil) would be a bit different but not killing, punching beating kicking he would calm down for sure, its wrong but works.hehehehe

well in this case it wasnt necesary, police knows that, patience and strategies make work easier

[Stiyl10]

So what other alternatives do you people want? Just let him go about his business, beat him up, pepper spray him and risk others being affected or beat him with a baton? If there was no one who could speak to him what else do you people want? It's unfortunate the guy died here but they were using a tool which is not supposed to kill people, and it has yet to be proven that he died as a direct result of the taser.

[Stiyl10]

Thing is, it seems very few here are considering how many times tasers have saved lives so cops don't have to resort directly to their guns. I guess some people just need any excuse to whine and moan about cops. You think Canadian cops are bad, get out of your house and take a look around the world. You guys have no idea how good you have it in Canada.

[CrimsonPhantom88]

Oh no, police doing their job! How terrible!

If a crazy man starts throwing stuff around and acting in a very threatening manner, the police have a responsibility to restrain them.

I wish the police where I live used as much force as these guys do.

[oodis48]

not a laughing matter.. this shouldnt of happend.

[DoomyCheese]

Lol.

[melocotondriaca]

was he killed because he didnt speak english?

[RX8fan07]

uh, no? he was tasered cause he was getting agressive...

but the police did over react

[rockleevsgaara]

whats the difference of police and thugs when they both kill inoncent people? seriously this is just sad! and it happened in my home town where i live now! im not sure if i should trust the police anymore...

[drunkSteadyAim]

your mother is becoming increasingly violent

[transfobby]

Canadian police force are becoming increasingly violent...the beginning of Police State

[lazyme427]

her son didnt die for nothing he was MURDERED for nothing

[lazyme427]

holy fuck ron foyle is fuckin huge oh and those cops are fucked up

[FALKOR78]

Crying for a help,call for police(in polish) and being killed by them...They get a rong guy again...Skurwysyny!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheOnlyFoe]

This is an obvious case of use of too much force. As a matter of fact, there needn't have been any force used. It galls me to see and hear the RCMP try to cover it up, sweep it under the rug. Just wrong.

[FALKOR78]

...killed for being upset and not speaking english...hope all those four fuckers families day for cancer...

[BecauseWeCanFilms]

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?! Those bastards just watch too many movies where cops get to use their guns. They're too trigger happy. The one taser was enough! He was on the ground, why do it again? Those pricks will have this on their conscience for the rest of their pathetic lives. I hope they commit suicide.

[smithboy59]

lol yet he was going to have a beter live in a FREE COUNTRY god and they just killed him they should of held up a gun not tol kill him but to atleast com him down

[ashjojo123]

If you examine those cops behavior, you'll see how excited they were. They were even more confused than the guy himself!This really shows how inexperienced they are!MURDERERS

[SNOGME2]

each cop involved in this should be taken out back and shot numerous times with a high powered rifle at point blank range...stupid pigs

[lolgirlie123]

That's like so not fair! The guy put his arms up and then he put them down and they still tasered him?Not to be stupid, but do they even know that it's his first time on an airplane? Didn't his mom tell him to wait outside? She should have made it more clearly! I really feel bad for his parents! I hate whoever invented the taser gun , unless it's for a good reason

[vedder70]

I have lost all respect for the RCMP and their young thug recruits, with their low IQ's. How dare they try and cover this up. The Man was distraught but i didn't see him threat to anyone just some office equipment. This has made International news. Just before our 2010 Olympics. Fire them, to show closure. My condolences to Mrs Dziekanski. Polish people suffered so much during WW2 by Nazis only to come to Canada to find more.

[Canadian039]

fuck you asshole get the FUCK out of canada u must be a immigrant fucking asshole HOW YOU FEEL TO BE HERE.....YOUR ANSESTERS COUNTRY MUST HAVE RELLY SUCKED ASS!!!!HOPE YOU GET TASERD (BUT NOT DIE)P.S DONT COMPARE CANADA TO NAZIS AKA GERMANS

[vedder70]

Hey fuckstick are you a native? At some point you must of immigrated? I was born in Canada. I respect life! It was the way i was brought up. You must be a young punk with an attitude. A perfect Candidate for the RCMP. I have never seen such disrespect???

[Canadian039]

I Also Was Born In CANADA And I Live IN SASKATCHEWAN...What you think?... And no My People Never Immigrated Here And I Have Two Of My Family Members In The Force Yes Alot Of PoLICE Are jerk's and Hey my Last Comments Where Stupid I Admit That..

[canman5060]

You must have forgotten the Bearing Strait where the first wave of Canadian Immigrant from China arrived ! They are what we refer to nowaday in Canada as members of First Nation.

[gamergeek]

I hope your life gets better. such anger is an obvious indication of being abused in some way. whether home or school.

[adryaluna]

I fell sorry for him and his parents.

About the Canadian Police .I don't have words they are so !*%@#%$&

[ferndog681]

congrats to the people that make more money than their parents. i still dont see how that affects the reader. keep on the pyramid thing. peace to the liks.

[gettchic1]

Canadian police are idiots. This is the only one reason why I dont't want to live in Canada. I live in canada. This video makes immigrants not come into Canada. Thats the equivelant of having a giant board at the airport gates saying "welcome to Canada, now walk through this door so we can kille you with 50 000 volts of electricity, thank you come again"

[oblivion2001]

So the only option cops had was to taser him? WTF! He was screaming in Polish for police and help, witnesses tell the police he doesn't speak English yet boom the pigs come in. He was panting, screaming, sweating, confused, and scared so his heart beat was probably fast already then the smart police shock him. Whatever happened to talking, pepper spray, or just tackling him, his one guy, their mulitples

Boycott Canada.

[oblivion2001]

So the only option cops had was to taser him? WTF! He was screaming in Polish for police and help, witnesses tell the police he doesn't speak English yet boom the pigs come in. He was panting, screaming, sweating, confused, and scared so his heart beat was probably fast already then the smart police shock him. I'm not going to Canada.

[xplosivetank]

man tihs aint fair even tho his throwing chairs like who cares he aint hurting no one his just tired since its his first time on da airoplane and has waited 10hours to see his mom and wen they asked him a question he put his hands up and walked away n they still kill him wht dogs

[777onster28]

OMFG!!

[dubin1]

nightstick MURDER

[fajzulin]

OMG How could they do that? I'va watched the whole video. He was confused, tired and he said fisrt that he is going to accuse them in the cort. Then when Police arrived he was shouting "Police, Police!!!" as he needed help from them. But they stand in the front of him and even didn't ask what's his problem. He didn't attack them, and they killed him for nothing. I'm shocked. I cannot unerstand why they did it. How can you treat a human like that.

Speechless :(

[ceniceroradical]

fucking pigs

[ischavanbenten]

jezus christ.. i saw this on the news also. they just didn't have any right to do what they did, to taser him. usually you do that stuff for like 2 secs, this guy was shocked at least 8 secs. sick bastards...
