Georgia Residents March in Protest to Taser Use

Today just under 500 protesters marched through Lawrenceville, GA in protest of police using the very controversial “less then lethal” device know as a Taser. Which transfers 50,000 volts through two metal contacts fired at the suspect.

More specially the concerned citizens marched in anger because of an incident that happened when police fired a Taser at a 31 year old inmate who later died. Many believe that his death was a direct result to the use of the Taser. It is the fear of many advocacy groups including the ACLU that police may over use Tasers because they (police officers) think that Tasers are completely harmless and don’t know the hiddin dangers with the use of Tasers.
