Don't tase me, man

87-year-old Martha Bishara of Chatsworth, Georgia, was out cutting dandelions for a salad when someone reported a woman with a knife.  Grandma Bishara is from Syria, has trouble walking, and speaks little English.  Three cops showed up and ordered her to drop the knife.  She didn’t.  She does have some trouble with English.  She was hit in the chest with a Taser, handcuffed behind her back, and taken to the police station.

She was charged with trespassing and obstructing law enforcement.  

I don’t make this stuff up.  It was in Saturday’s Times, p. A16. 


OK, more weirdness.  Trump’s Commission on School Safety will not hear any testimony that involves gun safety regulations.  Really, I do not make this stuff up.
