"I have a thousand years of power!"

Thormir · 08-05-2005

Apparently, that power had already reached its expiration date:

AUGUST 5--Meet Robert McClain. The Michigan man, 42, was arrested last week after he attempted to literally go medieval on cops. According to the below Royal Oak Police Department report, officers were dispatched to McClain's home after a motorist called 911 to report that McClain had fled the scene of an auto accident. When they arrived at his crib, McClain allegedly tried to strike a cop with a four-foot sword. After missing, McClain retreated to his basement, where he donned a chainmail armored vest and leather gauntlets to protect his arms. He also added a giant wooden mallet to his arsenal and beckoned officers to come downstairs and get him. "I'm gonna crush your fucking skulls," McClain warned. Then, in a nice rhetorical flourish (for a lunatic, at least), he added, "I have a thousand years of power." That omnipotence, however, was no match for a police Taser, which felled McClain. He was then carted off and charged with felony assault and a misdemeanor count for failing to remain at an accident scene. (3 pages)

I have the power to be fried in my suit of chainmail by an electrical shock?

It would seem a taser delivers slightly more than a thousand years of power. Poor guy must have read the voltage but not amperage.

If you read the full article it's even funnier. He at various points in time threw the sword, the chainmail, and a fit, all to no effect. The best part was the "additional TASER deployments"
