This woman is extremely dangerous. Just look at her Oxygen tubes for that extra speed boost. :roll:

If that actually is an oxygen supply the copper who tasered her should be fired immediately (as if he shouldn't anyway, but well). Large electric discharges + pure oxygen are a very bad combination indeed.

It sounds really bad until you read this bit.

What was she doing with a kitchen knife under her pillow anyway?

If she had a smile on her face it might have been a nitrous boost

She waves a knife at the people that come to help her, she should get tazered (tazed?).

Yes but if you have met a few old dears the last thing that they want is to be taken from their home and placed in some care home. Also if she lives alone she could not get to the kitchen to get a knife so would keep one close. I can totally understand why she did so. Though to taser a person in their own hone in bed who really could not come after you is a tad extreme. Maybe they had call out targets and had to get her into a hospital within so many minutes of arriving?

The best way for her not to be removed would be to talk calmly and clearly to the officer and point out that her son was an idiot and overreacting.

Killing the old and sick would instantly solve the financial crisis. Perhaps this is just the beginning?

You must be mad Amnesia - the Tories rely on the grannies to vote for them!

In this case though, I think it would be harsh to give the officer too tough a time (firing him for example) but really - does it take a tazer gun to restrain an old lady, even if she does have a knife?

On another note - what the hell is she gunna do with £50k? :lol:

Fit new locks, and buy a really nice katana to keep under the pillow?
