Tasers as Torture (11:31 am)
More on the Taser Front: RawStory recently posted footage from a Nov. 26 recap of Taser-related deaths/interview with Amnesty International Executive Director Larry Cox. Cox repeatedly condemns the use of Tasers as a form of torture. As regular readers already know, this is an issue we’ve been covering since Nov. 2006, kicking off with Silja J.A. Talvi’s Stunning Revelations.
The clip provides a surprisingly thorough summary of the issue, but be warned: it’s not for the faint of heart.
Tasers as torture? Really? I suppose they could be, assuming that the electrodes are attached to genitals. . .
We *should* get rid of them though. And just shoot and kill the law breaking bastards. Saves money and is apparently less cruel.
Ha ha ha ho ha ha ha!!!
