This graph is based on the CBC News interactive map [LINK] and the Deaths In Canada list at Truth ... not Tasers blog [LINK].
I have added a 3-month running total (black line), and a marker for the world-famous "Don't Tase Me, Bro!" incident which captured the public attention and did not permit the five taser-associated deaths in Canada over the next three months to slide past unnoticed.
You should right-click on this graph, and then Open in New Tab to view a larger version. For some reason, if you click on it directly, Google will mess up the proper functioning of your Back button (as fas as I know, it's their error).
As was mentioned in a previous post [LINK], isn't it interesting how the Canadian taser-associated death rate has plunged to ZERO at about the same time that the Canadian public became outraged?
And isn't it interesting how the US public, being generally distracted by other issues, are generally not outraged, and their taser-associated death rate is holding steady at about seven per month. [LINK]
What are the chances that these observations are coincidence?
Not very likely...
