Video of Airport Taser Death Released
This is another situation where it could have been handled differently in all aspects. Tasers and stun guns are meant to bring an individual down without any harm. They’re even used on officers so that they can experience what it feels like for themselves. However, it has never had a sole purpose to put someone to his or hers death. I find it extremely unfortunate by the way the officers decided to act to an individual that was so vulnerable even after taking him down to the ground. It was the first time traveling into another country for the polish immigrant and it truly is unfortunate that the events occurred because of the language barrier. Taking his life because of something that could have been fixed with a translator or just patience for that matter is just depressing and to find out that the RCMP tried lying about the case is just unimpressive.
This Youtube video is relevent to the article because it comes from the eye witness and the filmer himself. I think its important that the public is showed this tape because it is said that the RCMP explained what happened slightly different relative to what was filmed.
