1984

welcome to the new world order

In the United States, more than 290 people have died since June 2001 after being struck by police Tasers

only 25 of the 290 were armed, and none had firearms according to Amnesty International

and the excuse the police and the taser companies use is a lot of these folks had pre-existing heart conditions, etc.

well why in the fuck would you tase someone when you knew nothing about their physical or mental health just for routine compliance?

why would you want to be responsible for some one's death, because they were acting irrational, but were not a threat?

I personally think cops should have to be tased in police academy as a hazing ritual, so they can see how their actions will affect others. Maybe they do, I have no idea. Maybe law enforcement is just becoming lazy and really don't care about the lives of others anymore. They'll think of every excuse in the book so they can keep doing this and not actually have to enforce law, but be the law.
