Slow motion video of people being tased.

YT: Photographer Patrick Hall films people's reactions as they get tased with a handheld stun gun.

I kind of hate this because it makes it look like not such a big deal, and in general lessens the general audiences sensitivity to what's essentially legal torture used in the US today.

In the vast majority of cases, stun guns are used to immobilize people who pose a physical threat to themselves or others. It's pretty rare that someone who is civil and compliant gets tased. If that happens, the cops responsible should be punished appropriately. However, the misuse of stun guns doesn't make the devices inherently bad. They are a very effective way of neutralizing a threat in a non-lethal manner.

Moving this video to mintbbb's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
