    Parade pace is a marching pace. Couldn't a cop - one not hauling a lifetime of doughnuts over his belt - jog up behind the tractor, step aboard and pull the key?
    Somebody was daydreaming at the wheel, and somebody else overreacted. Property damage and personal injury are bound to follow.

    The whole septuagenarian thing is played as though anyone who has reached three-score years and ten must be a drooling nylon bag of bones and snot.
    Paul Newman and Stirling Moss were still racing at the age of this guy, so who's to say the contrary old bastard didn't need electrical calming assistance?
    How old was the tractor?

    We heard on CNN saying taser guns are going to be banned from State of California because a lot of people who got tasered ended up going to the hospital after having a cardiac arrest (heart attack), four people died from it since January of this year in California.
    The police should start using heavy duty fishnet to catch criminals without harming them.

    @Theimbellis: Your use of the word "criminal" in this context is a bit misleading (as is Taser Intl.'s insistence that tasers are non-lethal). For one thing, it's not the police's place to determine if you're a criminal or not. That's why they generally refer to people in custody as "suspects". Also, something like four of five people tasered haven't done anything more criminal than not immediately kissing an officer's arse. This is called a civil right and should not be punishable by immediate execution. I think the damned things should be illegal everywhere, or at least the threshold for using what should be acknowledged as potentially deadly force should be raised. Simply not immediately responding to an officer's demands (which in some cases are illegal to begin with) shouldn't be a valid excuse to use these things, sometimes deaf or handicapped people get seriously injured or even killed by these things, when a little investigation by the officer could have easily resolved the situation without harm to anyone.

    Noo.. you see.. what happened was.. *whisper* CARDIAC ARREST! YES! He started to go all blue after he hit that car, and repeated blows to the chest (mostly) failed to do the trick so Bud here thought that tasers and de-fibro-bolo-molators must be the same because they all use electrickery, right? I mean he's old, how would he know if we got the wrong tool fer the job.
    Anyway, it must have worked 'cos he's still alive. You should be thanking us.... hey, where's my doughnut?

    Apparently giving cops Tasers is like giving dildos to nymphomaniacs. They can't help themselves-they just have to use 'em.

Thanks to the warnings of the internet, though, I'm getting a Taser-proof suit and a sturdy umbrella to protect me from falling Nissan GTR transmission shrapnel. It's a rough world out there.

    Now they need a tune to go with an ol' Poppin Johnny dragging something big uphill.


    That's an older two-cylinder John Deere, for the uninformed. 350 cubes, two cylinders, a full-throttle note like tectonic plates shifting.
