1. Do police do anything anymore

Besides attack and kill innocent people?

Heard about a newly wed couple got into an argument in the afternoon here in very rural east TN. The husband went off into the woods. The wife was worried because he had talked about suicide. She called the cops. They found him. He had climbed up into a tree. They shot him in his upper arm and he fell out of the tree breaking his leg and wrist.

He's in the hospital now recovering from a gunshot wound and fractures. Why did they shoot him? He was all in one piece before they shot him. He had no weapons on him at all, not even a knife.

Why are we paying for such stupidity?
