The Police and Tasers
Posted by jason law on Dec 9, 2007 in The Shout Box |
Tasers and your local police department seem to be the newest couple on the news scene lately. With many victims being tasered to death by police officers who believe that their less-than lethal is just that. How less than lethal can a taser be if it causes death? Maybe my quoting is wrong, maybe its less lethal or less likely to die if you were shot. Either way the use of tasers as a form of criminal control seems to be way out of hand. There must be some other form of restraint that can be used. Otherwise the fear of police is going to go out of control with the rampant use of these devices.

That was scary to say the least. Freedom of opinion apparently means that police have the freedom to taser you when you voice your opinion too strongly.
