If you live in California, you've probably eaten at the insanely popular In-N-Out burger chain. But did you ever notice that they print discreet Bible references on their cups and wrappers?

Great burger though - I'd eat there with or without the Bible references.
Call me crazy, but as a kid I would've found this pretty cool so long as the taser was set to low and the teargas exposure wasn't too long. I'm sure they've all been exposed to this stuff themselves as part of their training and that they were careful while dealing with kids.
Same goes for guns. It's not always bad to let a kid handle a gun so long as there is responsible supervision and training
A police officer I worked with related a tale of how they would tear gas officers so they would know what it's like. He declined the experience.
I don't think I'd call it child abuse. Steohawk, parents do own their kids, don't they? Get over it. The attitude of kids not being "owned" is exactly why so many kids are out of control.
There are plenty of good parents, with good kids, who don't feel the need to resort to taking the position of treating their children like property. And no shortage of child abuse on every level as the default pattern of societies that treat children as "owned".
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a fan of obnoxious children. But I'm not willing to go back the things were and thing that's an improvement...
Officer: Well we use these tasers blah blah blah
Kid:Can I try it?
Kid 2: Ohh Me too?
Kid 3 Me Too?
Officer: Umm I dont know
Parent: Sure why not.
Officer: Ok
Zap
Sounds like fun to me.
This form of argument is about as effective as "believing" your child does not have an undiagnosed heart condition before you allow him a shock to the system.
If you insist on the power of blind supposition with regard to keeping children from harm, please allow me to direct you to the contraceptive aisle. I KNOW condoms can prevent bad parenting.
Maybe those kids were tested for heart conditions before the tasering took place. You're assuming they weren't. At least the defenders acknowledged that they were making unqualified statements.
