I find it incredible that someone, after all the deaths in Canada, has the nerve to come up and say something like that.
And the worst part is that the government is goint to listen to people like this and increase the use of tasers.
When will the rights and security of citizens regain some value?

The police associations want us to continue to use tasers until it is proven that tasers directly kill people. This is ridiculous! The onus is most certainly on those that want to use tasers to prove that tasers are safe! We can NOT allow Canadian police officers to be equipped with tasers unless it is PROVEN that tasers do not kill people and that tasers do not torture people! Amnesty International states that tasers can torture and kill!...continued here...

Good point. And while they are at it, let the Canadian Police Association prove that more lives have been saved (through employment of the taser) than lives lost.

Of course the Canadian Police Association can't do that; for these taser-nazis this is all just a game. They know quite well they can't prove any of it, with or without onus.

Best they can do is spread misinformation (tasers save lives), hence the report today.

Welcome to Canada's neo-con era.
