The police should NOT be the ones to investigate this.

This video terrified me. The guy is heard saying he has a medical condition! Now, as some of you know, I have a severe neurological condition. I look healthy most days, sometimes though I cannot walk. It varies, but anyway, I look ok a lot of days. No one could tell that there is no myelin on a lot of my stupid nerves.

Now, I had a nerve conduction test where they used LOW level shocks on me to test my nerves. They had to crank it up to get a response - my nerves are either NOTHING, or they overload. I didn't feel it - then it was over the top painful. Yet, I am sure that is less than being tazed.

Anyway, with that medically supervised test that involved getting shocks - I could not walk at all for 2 days. I still have nightmares from that.

So, I have argued repeatedly that they should be illegal. I am scared terribly of those things. I am perhaps more scared of them than a gun, as the police seem to think that they are 'safe' and a gun 'dangerous.' Maybe for some people...

Now, I thought that they were an ALTERNATIVE to a gun. Would you shoot someone for studying?

has subtitles. It is good to watch too. The words are I think from a school publication.

I am so proud of the UCLA students. :)
