WASHINGTON Amarillo congressman Ronny Jackson threatened to beat a state trooper and bury a West Texas sheriff in the next election after deputies pushed him to the ground and handcuffed him at a rodeo, according to a sheriffs incident report released Friday night.
Jackson, a former White House physician and retired rear admiral, portrayed himself afterwards as the victim of overzealous officers who didnt realize he was trying to put his medical expertise to use helping a teenager who was having a seizure.
The report on the July 29 incident from Carson County Sheriff Tam Terry portrays Jackson as belligerent and uncooperative.
It says that deputies asked Jackson to step back at least four times before they detained him, and he had also ignored the state troopers order to step back to let emergency responders help the girl.
*snip*
He was drunk and still no consequences.

It doesn't take a doctorate to know it's tougher to beat someone after the handcuffs go on. 😐
