UF Student Tasered at Kerry Speech

[jaspurr]

I am sure if in my day I could subdue a psychotic patient with the help of 2 female nurses then they could have done better, oh yes, without injuring ourselves. If we played by the rules the cops do we would have tasered every patient in the unit multiple times each day. I am all for the safety of the law enforcers but you may as well take the stance of them not getting out of their vehicles for feasr of being injured. You assess the risks. If it was a 1 or 2 on 1 scenario it could have been justified, as it was, well thats already been said.

I agree that the dude shouldn't have gone running up there like that and he should have been far more calm about everything, but I also think that the cops shouldn't have used the tazer. There are better ways of subduing someone than that, especially with 6 of them.
