That is far far far far far worse than a little tasering.

In any event, I don't really disagree with what you said above. However, my comment quoted at the top of this post was not in response to the attitude you express in the above quote, but in response to these other quotes from you: <<< He was only 17, well then he should have gotten a higher voltage he's young enough to handle that. >>> <<< Besides the Hangover showed us that taserings are funny. >>> <<< did you know the next night a 34 year old man ran onto the field, but wasn't tasered. Much to the disappointment of the Phillies fans. >>> Any one of those would seem to me to display a decidedly un-Christian attitude.
