Police ""claim"" the teenager began threatening officers during the search of a property on Broadoak Road in Moss Side on Monday the 15 year old child had to have a ambulance called after police appear to have used the Tazer on the unarmed child because he was dis-obeying officers after he became concerned at having the front door smashed in.

Comment : Are Tazers just an implement of torture to be used on people who protest their rights ?

If someone doesn't provide a link then it is better to search on the info they provide in their post rather than demand the dubious verification of a link. Consider your wrist slapped, which is what burly policemen used to do to kids before they were encouraged to electrocute them.

Tazers are for torture.

I protested loudly at three London police officers who arrested and handcuffed a twelve year old schoolboy, throwing him to the asphalt and kneeling on his back, for shouting "wanker" at them. The kid was only telling the truth, they are wankers. I knew it was only a matter of time before they began tazering the children for non-compliance. Watch what happens if you can't produce your I.D!

No ID - fry !

No wrist-slap intended Dread, just providing a link to someone being tasered for not having a library ID in the US before someone requests one. You doubtless know this, it just can't be linked to enough.

A missing library ID earns an electroction ? It's hard to avoid unfortunate puns like "shocking" or "power-trip".
