Lazy Taser

I will start with saying that the very first axiom I believe is true in today's society is that people are lazy. I think fundamentally, regardless of how driven a person is, they are still lazy. Even with fatastic goals and years of endless pursuit of it... they are still lazy.

Now what happens when you give police tasers with virtual immunity from disciplinary action resulting from their use?

Remember people are lazy.

Now I don't know the particulars of the case but I want to see the video behind this story

Basically it boils down to this. A kid (though not a student of the university) decides to skate down (some very nice for boarding) paths on the college campus in the middle of town. Given there are signs posted against all formed of wheeled transport on those (10' wide) paths, the campus police (actual police), approach the dude and through some chain of events the two of them end up tasering him. And being this is done in front of several hundread college students it ends up on "tape" by a cell phone, of which the user promptly youtubes (possibly on the spot via the cell phone).

I'm not arguing that they weren't justified in issuing a misdemeanor ticket (the sum total of what he ended up getting) but using a taser I feel is a result of lazyness moreso than need.

Issuing police the taser is asking for abuse.
