No Situation Is So Bad That It Cannot Be Made Worse By The Presence Of The Police

On Saturday, trying to do the right thing led to Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson of Texas being put in handcuffs and briefly detained.
The incident happened at the White Deer Rodeo in the town of White Deer about 40 miles from Amarillo, according to the Texas Tribune.
A statement from Jackson’s office said he was attending the rodeo when he was “summoned by someone in the crowd to assist a 15-year-old girl who was having a medical emergency nearby.”
The statement that Jackson, who was a White House doctor for former President Barack Obama, was informed by a relative that the girl needed help in addition to the assistance being provided because “no uniformed EMS providers on the scene at the time.”
“While assessing the patient in a very loud and chaotic environment, confusion developed with law enforcement on the scene and Dr. Jackson was briefly detained and was actually prevented from further assisting the patient,” the statement continued.
“He was immediately released as soon as law enforcement realized that he, as a medical professional, was tending to the young girl’s medical emergency.”
The statement noted said Jackson was “in the stands during the entire rodeo, in full view of the assembled crowd, and was not drinking.”
It sounds like a boilerplate statement from a chief cop concerning a screwup, yes? Wait. It gets much worse.
In a Facebook post in which she referred to Jackson as “ER DR” (which he is professionally), Linda Dianne Shouse gave her summation of the incident.
“I have never been more disappointed in our Rescue Team!!! I got called to render aide to my 15 year old cousin that was unresponsive at the White Deer Rodeo tonight!! She is not from here and was seen at the ER last night as she was told for dehydration and anemia!! I assessed her and she was NOT dehydrated! She was responsive to my voice but not aware of her surroundings. Respirations in the 40s. As I assessed her I noticed she looked as tho it was hypoglycemic episode,” she wrote.
“My cousin who is a BSN in a trauma hospital, myself and an ER DR were working on her. Had her responsive to her whereabouts! ER Dr agreed with me that she was seizing due to possible hypoglycemia. Sheriff’s department put a blood pressure monitor on her below her waist. I rose it to heart level and as she is awake and respirations are slowing down I placed a small piece of gum in a ball UNDER her tongue to give her some sugar. (Better than nothing).”
“Deputys screamed at me and not listening to any thing US medical Professionals had to say, they punched me in my chest and forced me back with a palm to my face as well causing me to fall backwards!! ER Dr was thrown to the grown and ARRESTED!!! I am beside myself!! Prayers for Bailey!!!!!” she concluded.
They’re all blessed to be alive. It’s a wonder the cops didn’t discharge firearms at everyone around them.
You’re never in more danger than when the cops are around, and no situation is so bad that it cannot be made worse by the presence of the police.

Once was temporarily cuffed and detained while out walking by the local sports bar late night.
Luckily a patron said oh that is not him as a woman was laid out behind the bar bleeding.
Now I just avoid that whole area to heel and toe elsewhere, especially on the weekends.
There was some flatulence that was let loose as Dick Jones was searching for any weapons or contraband.

It seems she dinged his cop car with the ambulance door while unloading the patient because he was parked in an “ambulance only” spot…

I would be amazed if there was no video of this abusive misconduct by the badgemonkeys.
Once the video becomes available it should be used in the lawsuit against them.

If the police would stop mandating the hiring of sub-intelligent retards and 80-IQ Diversity Beans, and stop screening out anyone with an IQ over 120, these situations would stop happening.
The military branches requires a minimum IQ of 110 to be considered for officer training.
The police from coast to coast would be well-advised to adopt the same standard, and tell anyone shouting “RAYCISSSSS!” in response to that requirement to attempt self-fornication.
And while I’m up, I’d like the winning Mega Millions ticket, and world peace.
Hire monkeys, get a circus.

Well, my wishlist is that I could come to a decent website like Captain’s Journal and not see dipshit liars like Aesop.
