It's a compliance technique. She wasn't complying. It's an electric shock not a .50 cal bullet.

It was DESIGNED to be used IN LIEU OF deadly force. It was not DESIGNED to be used by fat out of shape lazy cops who dont feel like breaking a sweat trying to handcuff a geriatric and would rather expose them to the very real possibility of deadly heart arrthymias. As we have seen, in over 200 documented deaths resulting from the taser being used, even on healthy adults.

yes exactly,
I was on the streets in boston and watched cops use bean bag guns to "control" the crowd in 2004 durring the American League pennant comeback. They shot a 21 year old girl...turns out she died.
It's an alt to deadly force, not a remote control so you don't have to do your job anymore.

That big pig against a 72 year old woman? He's lucky she didn't die at her age.

Cops seem to be getting away with more and it's not just happening in America:

Some of you might already be aware of this. This was during the G-20 protests in London. A man was walking home when he was "subdued", from behind no less, by a cop who took a batton to his legs. The man ended up having a heart attack minutes later. If you watch the video in this link you clearly see this man being attacked from behind. He has his hands in his pockets so is doing nothing that could be construed as aggressive behaviour. None of the other policemen help this man up. After being eventually helped up by members of the public, he walked a further 200 yards, collapsed, and died of a heart attack.

I am get so ****ing sick of trying to explain to the ignorant bastards about what the Taser is intended for.

I am glad you are around to do it.

Ignorant bastard? I'm in law enforcement and I've been through the training and I'm certified to use the ****ing thing. If you don't break the law, it's not an issue, is it?

I'm shocked that you agree with the douchebag Cop.

Go try being a cop before you pass judgement. And no, I don't "agree" with what he did. I wouldn't have handled it that way. But let's side with the people breaking the law. /sarcasm

I actually went through some training in an effort to become a Cop, I am now glad I didn't become one. I don't think I could ever be a douchebag that doesn't know the laws that I am trying to enforce in the first place.

Face it, most of your kind are ****ing douchebags. My opinion has been swayed the last 1-2yrs...before that I might have agreed with you. Oh, and Cops are the biggest ****ing hypocrites around.

Why do I think and know all this? Well two of my family members are Cops.
