40 year old Polish citizen Dziekanski was kept waiting for 10 hours at a Canadian airport. When he loses his temper and throws his notebook pc at the window of the waiting room where he is kept the police raids in and applies him electroshock as a result of which he loses his life.

Let's say no to harsh treatment at customs. This world is so designed only the affluent can enjoy it. We are humans and we have a right to be anywhere in this world. We certainly don't deserve bad treatment.

How do you think the police should have handled this, he seemed violent? I'm not surprised they tazed him, but for him to die..that's terrible.

Given the amount of deaths with tazering, I think it's time for a very serious inquery of just how this is being done. While one shock may be enough, some have been going way overboard with it.
TASER Danger?

Imagine the comments if the story was:-
Police did nothing when a clearly aggressive man threw a laptop through a glass partition before shooting everyone in the waiting room.

"Its disgusting that police did NOTHING when this man was clearly aggitated....blah blah....why can't they have weapons to stop these people...blah blah..."

If you want a REALLY shocking story, check out the news yesterday about the way Serbia treats its orphans, disabled children and adults.

I never NEVER witnessed such cruelty to children and it will take a long time to erase those images from my mind.

You know, I don't know, but I do think this is something that should be used with more restraint.

James Borden was arrested in a disoriented state in November 2003 and died shortly after the administration of the last of six electro-shocks, delivered while his hands were reportedly cuffed behind his back.

Dramatize? Or Traumatize?
