If you provoke the officer in a way that questions your intent and motives then of course he should exercise caution and eliminate you as a threat. It is for his/her own good and yours.
Besides, in Russia you just pay out some rubbles and your troubles go away.

I bet pepper spray and tazers are viewed on the same level. They are both non-lethal means of subduing a criminal who is resisting. This prevents the police to have to start a physical confrontation between themselves and the offending party. Of course the supposed criminal is going to feel very uncomfortable for a period.
I did not see the swing at the cop either as it was in the vehicle. If you listen she asked
"Why did you taze me!"
"Because you took a swing at my partner."
"I didn't take a swing at you."
"You swung at my partner I said."

And in Mexico you pay out pesos or dollars. :lol:

I watched Modern Marvels on the History channel the other night. There is a new LETHAL weapon used for law enforcement.
ROTTEN FISH. A liquid disbursed in large crowds. Blech!
Yes.... I have heard of those stink bullets.
Bean bag bullets and wooden slugs are being used. The wood slugs are about the size of your fist. They won't kill you but they leave one heck of a mark.

Has anyone ever been killed by a tazer?
I would imagine it could damage someone with a heart problem. Any voltage puts stress on your heart.

RE: Is this police brutal
There would be deaths with people using a pace maker...
There have been deaths of people high on drugs after being tasered...coroners can't say if it's the electricity (no residual) so it's not ruled as taser caused death....
It's a controversial weapon..that's for sure.

This appears to be what Amnesty International documented in a November 2004 report on police use of tasers.
