Reply #6: And an adult couldn't disarm him? [View All]

[AlienGirl]

Six-year-olds are not very big or all that strong. I think if adults were not capable of talking him into giving up the glass, they could have just grabbed him and taken it away--with much less trauma.

Now, aside from the medical risks (damage to heart muscle cells among them) he is left with the memory of being already distraught and having a cop--someone you're supposed to trust, if you're lost or scared--SHOOT him with an incredibly painful electrical burst.

I feel very sad for this child, and all the kids like him who our society gives up on before they even have a chance. :cry:
