    She was armed with a mood disorder. There are plenty of those where people are uncontrollable or dangerous to themselves or to others.

    Yeah, I saw. The sources for "expected injuries" came from police departments.

    But besides the point. While tasers can be used to decrease fatalities with incidents with police, I'm not going to say that because you don't expect a huge impact or negative side effects on the adult population that you have excused yourself to taser unarmed little children.

    Armed with a mood disorder. Did those words actually come out of your brain and get typed down? Seriously? Honestly, just think about what you wrote there.

    And how exactly did they base them off those stats?

    Taser Brutality: 389 US Citizens Killed By Tasers The Duck Shoot

    Forget the stats even. Do you know how risky it is to taser young kids?

    So we taser the kid because that would solve the problem...how?

    I don't know why I bother responding to unreasonable people, but.. a taser sends electrical pulses that constrict muscle movement. Even if you want to fight it, you cannot. In this situation the fighting stopped and she was taken to a juvenile care facility. Everything turned out fine, and yet people like you still want to be outraged.
