Toronto Police sued after Tasing university studentA university student is suing Toronto police for more than $1.6M after he was allegedly Tasered with an officer's knee on his neck. The parents are long time supporters and friends of Nigel Barriffe. Nigel is a professional anti-racism activist who his against police having tasers. This relationship needs to be considered in the events that lead up to the use of force and the decision to sue the police. He looked like someone that the police was looking for. He was tackled and had one police officer on him when he was tasered. What the fk are with these comments defending the police? You don't have to taser him if you already have a knee on his neck. This is the perfect example of why crime pays .

Why do we always have to degrade people with darker skin? Can we not refer to them as friends, family, neighbours, co workers or Canadians? sue these losers and make them penniless.

Poll: Is TorontoPolice racist? TOpoli ONpoli CDNpoli CDNmedia rcmpgrcpolice I hope the judge tosses their suit, otherwise being black and wrongfully-arrested will be like winning the lottery! Check that - I hope they win and the next time I’m wrongfully-arrested, I’mma identify as black and for some intersectionality bonus points, I’ll be ‘trans’, too! So can white people sue and claim the same? Why not? That's discrimination!
