What's the amperage on these things, though? It's the amps that kill you.
I'm feeling frantic right now..

He flies to a foreign country and expects to be given a translator paid for by the government when he gets upset and starts throwing/breaking stuff...
I'm feeling evident right now..

Believe it or not, thats not the kind of information available on "taser's" web site, but according to "howstufworks" they deliver between 20 000 and 150 000 volts and between 2 and 3 milliamps.

Tasers should be reevaluated as a "non-lethal" weapon, but this guy was acting violent and odd in an airport, what were the staff supposed to do? Maybe he should have been more patient. Foreign airports can be a scary place, you have to be prepared.
I'm feeling gangsta right now..

He would have had a better chance of survival if they had unleached attack dogs on him.

Dont under estimate the calming effect that 2 large german shepards can have on an old polish guy.

Non mais quessq que vous racontez ?!? ce gars n'a jamais été d'une quelconque réelle menace pour ce ou ces policier(s) qui ont décidé de lui tirer de dessus. Ils auraient pu le maitriser physiquement, à quatre gars entrainés pour ça. Ils ont agit comme des lâches ! Ya vraiment rien qui justifie ça, surtout quand on sait comment l'histoire finit.
I'm feeling underarrest right now..

Hang on people, have you been following the story? This was a total fuck-up by the RCMP, it's not in any way to say the guy deserved to be killed... christ...

First off the RCMP uses an older model of tazer that has been discontinued because it was putting out too much voltage. The company that makes the tazer has tried to cover this up a bit but the most recent news I heard on CBC 1 was that:

1) He came off of a flight with a POLISH AIRLINE... so why didn't anybody at the airport manage to translate for him? At an international airport?
2) He was agitated and it was his first flight... to date no research or progress has been made on getting counsellors for people coming into customs for the first time. You may laugh, but when's the last time you emigrated somewhere?
3) His mother paid for the flight with what was practically her life savings. She hadn't seen her son in years. He didn't have a history of alcoholism or violent behaviour. This is a fucking tragedy if you ask me.

I don't see the humour in making light of this situation, this is scary news, and things like this shouldn't happen anywhere. You don't kill people when they freak out, you subdue them. And subdue does not mean electrocute with a faulty weapon.
I'm feeling horrible right now..

The kind of treatment you would expect from a fascist police state but certainly not from Canada. It's an outrage, this man could have been greeted with a smile and a handshake and none of this would of happened.
