Bad policy ~AND~ Defective Training

Liberal MP Mark Holland: "I don't see why we can't have policies that say if someone is down on the ground writhing in pain, they shouldn't be hit again with a taser." [LINK]

"Hit him again," is the now world-famous quote from one of the officers. These highly-trained officers apparently cannot distinguish 'writing in pain' from 'fighting'.

It's perfectly self-evident that the taser training is so incredibly bad that it is perfectly reasonable to characterize it as DEFECTIVE. This defective training is Top-Down. All the self-proclaimed 'taser experts' carry the virus. The higher they are up in the Taser fool-chain, the worse their infection.


There's only one cure that will actually work: Moratorium.

It'll capture their attention.
It'll allow time to fix the issue.
It'll put the people back in charge.

I can't see any other course of action that would have the desired effect.

Of course, the main risk of a taser moratorium is that the RCMP (for example) might have to shoot dead "600" people in Canada if they don't have tasers at their disposal. LOL! [LINK]
