It's actually amazing how completely ineffective those tasers were. Frequently the darts don't get through the outer clothing, and when they do the guy's only briefly incapacitated.
Tasers are amazingly inefficient weapons, given all that is required to go right for them to work.
How so? They didn't show up in the parking lot for a meet and greet with the band. They were called there by Walmart.
Yeah, when I first saw it, it just looked like it could have been handled better without pissing off this large group of hillbillies right off the bat.
But watching that slo-mo version, those guys pretty much started fighting immediately. They wanted to fight. They really are lucky more of them aren't dead. I mean, what as their "end game" here?

The end of times, well that is what Matthew 24 seems to be about and in this case it was for one of them.
Those people have to be some of the most stupid and ignorant individuals I have ever witnessed. I don't know how many times a police officer needs to say "get down"...
It's a miracle only one person died in this altercation.
I'm just showing what beliefs are out there, not subscribing to this in any way.
Okay fair enough, but I guess I was asking about what they expected to happen more "immediately". I don't think even these dummies thought this Walmart brawl would bring about the end of the world, even if that is what they are preparing for by singing songs in the parking lot and taking showers in the sink at the discount store.
More along the lines of did they think they might somehow "win" this fight and the cops would just run away, like the Socs after the rumble in The Outsiders?
The whole thing is just so crazy. Maybe it's just as dumb for me to try to rationalize what these people were doing when there probably are no rational answers.

I suppose that is because they are designed to be 'safe'. If you make it more powerful, people will complain.

I don't think they were that far from winning. Scary stuff.
If you watch the Police Chief's play-by-play, he indicates that the family kept calling the policemen 'nazis'. That probably is a good indicator that they did not trust the authorities and why there were openly combative.
I'm very curious how that entire family managed to be transported in and also live inside that suburban in addition to all their luggage and instruments.
Strange rantings throughout about satanists, nazis, false accusations, being kicked out of campgrounds, vaccine conspiraces, defending Kent Hovind, GMO conspiracies against Monsanto, and lot of date mongering and eschatology.
This afternoon at the Westbrook Walmart, there were five or six born again people of all ages (say, ages 20-60) harassing people in the store. They were wearing shirts inscribed with messages about burning in hell.
A young fellow asked me if I've been born again, and I just gave him my rather effective 'don't #### with me' look and walked away before he could continue. He had a total southern US accent.
When I was leaving, three of them were standing at the entrance inside the store commenting about black people and how they were everywhere. I was surprised they were allowed to remain in the store for as long as they were (at least 30 minutes.)
This reminded me of that Christian band involved in the incident (first post in this thread.). Is this something groups do--spread their message at Walmarts? Are they in town for Stampede to save us all (or to par-tay?)
Or maybe there's absolutely zero connection. But it was an odd encounter.

Haha part of me misses living over in that area. You were always guaranteed to see some kooky characters on trips to Westbrook Walmart.
as we know it.
