infowars.net — Doctors have condemned as corporate "intimidation" a court decision ordering a chief medical examiner to remove any reference to the use of a taser as an antecedent in the deaths of three men.

  • CaptainAmerica1, on 05/08/2008, -14/+3Judge Schneiderman was explicit: "There is simply no medical, scientific, or electrical evidence to support the conclusion that the Taser X26 had anything to do with the death of Dennis S. Hyde, Richard Holcomb, or Mark D. McCullaugh."
    • CaptainAmerica1, on 05/09/2008, -4/+3Hmmm... -10 Diggs

      I guess Diggers don't like facts.
      • darion, on 05/11/2008, -0/+2As someone said before. "Would they have died if they where not shot with a tazer gun?"
  • scottunzicker, on 05/08/2008, -2/+11Hmm, so if the examining physician says that the electrical shocks were in part responsible for the death of the victim, that doesn't constitute "medical" or "scientific" evidence?

  • maxtangent, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7So, if tasers had not been applied, these people would have died anyway?
    • darion, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Now your thinking like a real american. (if you cant tell im being sarcastic)
  • XPIOLT, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5This is just another phase of the Police State and complete tyranny.
    Great article Steve and this is not spam.
  • wholeness, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5They say there is no evidence that Tasers can potentially cause death but at least a few hundred people have died after a Taser was applied to them.. People have died after a taser was applied to them, if the tasers were not applied they would not have died at that time. How much more evidence than that do you need that Tasers cause death?

    Tasers should be considered potentially lethal weapons and used only as an alternative to a situation where a gun would normally be fired or possibly banned altogether due to the unpredictable nature of electricity being applied to a human body.

  • MayLattanzio, on 05/10/2008, -0/+2Wee need equal protection under the law, and the law should include exactly what law enforcement uses, including powerful tasers. We are all vulnerable and in danger.
  • evergrim, on 05/12/2008, -0/+2"Don't taze me bro!"

    That pretty much sums it up for me.
    • darion, on 05/12/2008, -0/+2I think it wouldnt be made as a joke on the internet if he had died from the tazer hits.
