Given remedial training? What, he was sent to an elementary school? Shocking that you need a taser for middle school students.

why not get it out of the way and just go ahead and taser everybody? I say we build a gigantic taser that blocks out the sun and zap everyone, starting with children and the elderly.

A taser in a middle-school, eh? Too bad he didn't accidentally zap one of the kids, that would put an end to such silliness.
Oh yes, I forgot, he needs the taser to defend students from intruders or something.

“inadvertently and unintentionally discharged” the Taser..
Hmm, any Taser fanatics out there? How easy is it to discharge it accidently?

" How easy is it to discharge it accidently? "
Just as easy as a sidearm.
Would tasering middle school students be an acceptable form of "spanking?" Could we call that form of corporal punishment "spasering?"

Pardon me for repeating myself, but...
Bwahahahahahahaha ha!

I've never come close to an accidental discharge of a sidearm, and have carried many. Sounds to me like someone was showing off to an admirer of gadgetry and had a premature taseration.

Premature taseration? I'll bet before too long there'll be a pill to fix that.

I'm sure the Custodial Facilitator doesn't get paid enough to put up with that shit.

I think that we should start tasing zoo animals when they don't move at the zoo. Don't they know people don't come to gawk at animals who are just standing there?
Also: people who don't move fast enough. If you're in my way, I will tase you. Dog doesn't listen? Tase him. Grandmother get you socks for your birthday again. Tase her. Tired of standing in line? Wait your turn-er-tase 'em!
Tase 'em all and let God sort 'em out, man.

to paraphrase Homer Simpson, "When I'm holding a taser I feel so powerful...kind of like God must feel like when he's holding a taser!

Simply shocking

maybe the janitor caught the administrator going through the private personnel files in the school basement and the janitor wanted $50 to forget he saw him there.
Posted by: jimmyjohn | Nov 15, 2007 6:55:25 AM
Hey, at least there was a 99.7% chance of the janitor walking away without a serious injury. What else can say that, besides the rabid attack laywer that the janitor is going to sic after th officer and the district.

Sometimesilie - right on! I think there should be a rule that we can taze 5 people a month.
