Police Kill Five People With Tasers in January 2008


We noted one taser death last month on our blog. Tasered While Black keeps a good count of the taser attacks that impact on African Americans. Did you know that police killed five people with taser blasts in January 2008?

Tasers seem to be the modern-day version of the police dogs and water hoses they used on our people during the 1960s.


Villagers, doesn't it seem to you that the police policy of using tasers needs to be re-examined? Did these men deserve a death penalty for 'erratic driving' or 'disorderly conduct' or 'failing to obey police commands'?
