Brooke Fantelli, the transgender woman who was tazed by a Bureau of Land Management (BLM) ranger, has filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against the BLM for the incident that occurred Oct. 16, 2011 near Ramona, Calif. Fantelli, 44, is an off-road vehicle race car driver, and one of her racing vehicles was being used as a backdrop for a photo shoot in the desert area near her Ramona home.

I'm pretty sure I saw the video of that, what happened there was awful, and there is no excuse for it. While not every case deserves multi million dollar rewards, this one definitely does.

Some people can just be so ignorant. She didn't do anything illegal!  >:(
