Naked Dog Walker Shocked With Taser

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- A 40-year-old man walking his dog in the nude was Tasered by police when he refused to follow an officer's commands.

David McCranie of the Tallahassee Police Department said an officer on patrol spotted the man shortly after 8 p.m. Friday.

The man was asked what he was doing and told the officer, "Allah told me to watch a Bruce Willis movie and walk the dog," McCranie said.


McCranie said using the Taser was the only way to subdue the man without having to hurt him.

1. Getting tasered isn't getting hurt?

It should be illegal to tase an unarmed man.

2. The only real problem I'm having with this guy's story is the Bruce Willis

movie.

I'm not a real big fan of Bruce Willis, truth be told. He's not as repellent as Tom Cruise, but I don't care for him just the same. I would have assumed that Allah had better taste in films.

6. "The dog, when asked by reporters for his perspective on thie altercation,

suggested that he felt the police response was unnecessarily severe and perhaps based on religious discrimination.

'It's a classic case of the over-assertion of civil authority,' Bowzer, a 2-year old golden receiver indicated. 'Basically, I just wanted to go out for my walk for the same purpose any dog wants to go for a walk -- to perform activities of daily living and to sniff a trash can or two. Next thing I know the cops move in with the taser thing. Pointless agression, in my opinion.'
