Re:Unauthorized export resale?
Tasers kill in very rare cases.
Not so rare. So far it seems we're up to 758 or more.
If the officers had tried to man-handle this lady, that could also result in death. Just as unlikely.
Nowhere near. Find me a statistic that says police officers have killed 750+ people by picking them up and force-walking them to the squad car. This is a quote that's often bandied around, but it has no substance - weasel words like "could" creep in so that the intent of the phrase is actually to mislead rather than communicate.
But man-handling could very likely cause non-lethal injury to both her and the officers. That's why I said that the officers were in a no-win situation. The blame here, from what is known, should be solely on the suspect. She refused to leave. She wrestled with the officers as they attempted to handcuff her. Once she was finally in custody, she was bailed out and sent home. It was her choice to refuse to leave. It was her choice to resist arrest. I saw news footage of her at home that very night, she's fine. Of course she's playing it up as best she can, I'm sure she'll be filing law suits any day now.
As she should. There should never be a need for two heavily armed and well-trained men to electrocute one small woman in order to get her second arm into handcuffs.
"You are *not* supposed to use them like glorified cattle prods[.]"
There's nothing to indicate the police used the taser for such a reason. They used it to subdue a subject that was physically resisting arrest. That's what they're for.
No. It's not. These weapons are replacements for when an officer would otherwise shoot the suspect, they are still lethal weapons, they just don't kill as often as bullets do. That was their stated benefit. The slippery slope was too much, and now they're used *exactly* as I described - as cattle prods to subdue anyone making the police officers job anything but simple.
It doesn't appear that she was harmed, otherwise the footage that night would have been from a hospital bed.
Which is irrelevant. It is the principle that is outrageous here, not the specific case.
The officers don't appear to have been harmed either. The device worked.
Your anecdote adds little. We don't know precisely what led to the take-down. The video that circulated conveniently left that part out. For all we know, the officers did attempt to take control the same way you describe. That approach isn't always going to work, especially if she intended to cause trouble. The taser was the officer's truncheon. I'd argue it's less violent, there's no impact.
You're missing my point completely. The UK police *carry* truncheons as a part of the symbol of their authority. They very rarely get *used*. The US police appear to electrocute people who they really have no reason to. There is a massive difference there.
As for violence, the violence of the act has nothing to do with the impact potential, it has to do with the potential for damage. Strangling someone is seen as worse than breaking their leg. Being electrocuted is worse than getting a bruised arm (bones are significantly harder to break than you seem to think) because of the much greater possibility of killing the suspect.
Electric shock isn't fun, but any effects dissipate rapidly.
Sure. If it doesn't kill you.
As for firearms, that was not an element of the story, so why even bring it up? Makes me think you might be participating in this discussion mostly because you don't agree with the way our society functions. You should understand that to many of us, your officers running around without firearms is probably as appalling as you view our own. I have no issue with a well-armed citizenry. I fear a governme

Re:I wouldn't jump the gun just yet
You're going to have to catch me up why Hyper-V and Visualization matter in your sentence. If your V-Server depends on AD which is on the V-Server you're going to have an issue.

People have already setup Samba4 and W2K8 ADs working together

The other issues are potentially a problem as there are thousands of different AD configurations out there, and all of them have not been tested.

Re:I still don't get it...
Talking of stupid, anybody who takes this IPCC "draft" trolling seriously are being duped. The IPCC are climate change deniers, hiding behind a thin veil that can hardly be called "science"
The end game of the massive well funded disinformation campaign being to influence as many people as possible into taking strong climate change denial opinion. The problem is, the likes of Fox news and troll news like this one are succeeding very well in this aim, http://environment.yale.edu/climate/the-climate-note/>as this graph shows. Science and evidence be damned.
IPCC Disinformation campaign:
The slide above comes from the presentation of Hans von Storch to the InterAcademy Review of the IPCC, presented earlier this week in Montreal. The slide references the misrepresentation of the issue of disasters and climate change by the IPCC. von Storch is very clear in his views:
IPCC authors have decided to violate the mission of the IPCC, by presenting disinformation.
Not only did the IPCC misrepresent the science of disasters and climate change, but went so far as to issue a highly misleading press release to try to spin the issue and put an unprepared IPCC WG2 chair on the BBC to try to defend the undefensible. I was promised a response from the IPCC to my concerns, a response that has never been provided.
A former head of the IPCC, Robert Watson, says the following in the context of the 2035 glacier issue, but could be equally applied to the disaster issue:To me the fundamental problem was that when the error was found it was handled in a totally and utterly atrocious manner.
The IAC Review of the IPCC is fully aware of this issue, and it will be interesting to see what their report says on the topic. Meantime, the IPCC is continuing its preparations for its next assessment in business-as-usual fashion.
