Deserved or not, (which I don't think he did - sure he's an ass but...) doesn't it open up the police to use something in situations where it's not deserved? And for that matter, who decides who is deserving and who isn't? You? Me? The police? Don't we want to hold our law enforcement to a higher standard to protect against those instances where undeserving individuals are subject to that kind of action?

even homeless people on crack tend to know better than to try pulling the kind of stuff he did. yeah... well... you'd be surprised. a warm bed and three squares a day can be pretty appealing - plus, if there's a possibility of free rehab... it might just be worth the tazer. homeless people on crack can be silly like that sometimes. i wonder what i'd do...
