47. We have become complacent and accepting of tasering
That is the most interesting thing I see about this incident. Remember when this technology was only going to be used against violent people in place of guns? Notice the slow creep and the acceptance of using injury to place someone under arrest?

What exactly is the difference between tasoring and beating someone into submission? The fact that a tasor does not scar?

I see more and more evidence on DU of people who are far more under the influence of fascism than they think...
