Standing up

And fighting back.

Against bullies. (This story is so sweet.)

Against unfair charges and demands from an indifferent government.

Against those who pretend to be hunters and outdoorsmen when they are not.

The pile of bodies is getting hard to ignore

JJ of Unrepentant Old Hippie keeps track of the horrible misuse of Tasers by police, and the people they have murdered.



Update 11/25:
The UN says that Tasers are torture:

TASER electronic stun guns are a form of torture that can kill, a UN committee has declared after several recent deaths in North America.

"The use of these weapons causes acute pain, constituting a form of torture,'' the UN's Committee against Torture said.

"In certain cases, they can even cause death, as has been shown by reliable studies and recent real-life events,'' the committee of 10 experts said.

Three men, all in their early 20s, were reported to have died in the United States this week, days after a Polish man died at Vancouver airport after being Tasered by Canadian police.
