Florida police use Taser on nude man walking a dog

Being home from Hurricane Ike has resorted me to "stupid news" such as this. I came across it anc cound not quit laughing. Obviously I need to get out of this house...

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.

When asked what he was doing, the man told the officer, “Allah told me to watch a Bruce Willis movie and walk the dog,” McCranie said. “He was obviously having some sort of emotional distress,” he said.

McCranie said using the Taser was the only way to subdue the man without having to hurt him. The man was then sent for mental-health evaluation and treatment.

Sorry but the last time I checked, being tasered hurts like hell!!!
