Assault Mountie is certified Taser trainer !!??!!

The RCMP officer (Const. Dan Cameron) who was been found guilty of assault [LINK] with a taser at 100 Mile House, BC... ...well, it turns out that he is a certified Taser trainer. [LINK]

This little tidbit of information snuggles perfectly into the overall taser issue. In other words, it is a shocking little detail, but it is not the slightest bit surprising given the wider view of the entire taser issue.

And it really demonstrates the urgent requirement for a major house cleaning (beliefs about safety versus sad reality, standards, policies, training, trainers, ethics, Use of Force, etc.).

Parliament should really seriously consider the taser moratorium option to capture the attention of senior RCMP brass.
