Cop Uses Stun Gun On Students

A sheriff's deputy in Colorado has been put on unpaid administrative leave for allegedly shocking 30 students with a stun gun at a high school job fair Thursday, Denver TV station KUSA reported.According to school administrators, students asked the deputy to shock them because they wanted to see what it felt like. However, two of the students suffered minor burns and were taken to a local hospital.Superintendent Betty Kokenes said she had no idea students were being stunned."I believe it's not appropriate and it wasn't an authorized activity," she said.A representative for the Lake County Sheriff's Department said it's not common practice and shouldn't have happened. She was told by the Lake County sheriff that the deputy asked students to sign a waiver if they wanted to be shocked."I'm under the impression from what the sheriff's office has said that the deputy did ask students to sign a waiver," spokeswoman Betty Benson said.However, one student who wished to remain anonymous said students just went up to the deputy and asked to be shocked and the deputy said yes."He didn't ask for anything. You just asked if you could do it," the student said. "He said 'Yeah.' We probably should have taken necessary steps, but I guess when you're in the moment, you're in the moment."

Love the student's reaction here. When you're in the moment, you're in the motherfucking moment. I know it all too well. Should the cop have used his stun gun on the children? I don't know. Probably not. Ben Franklin shouldn't have been flying his kite in an electric storm but here we are. We're human and certain things trigger us. Think about how many times a day this poor cop will have some little shit ask to use his gun or his taser. One day, you just snap. I've seen it. Like if an average chick keeps asking to hang out for 4 weeks, you're gonna break. It's gonna be 8:30 on a Saturday and you cave because she has a pair of DSL's and then you put up with all that shenanigans that follow with a regrettable hookup.
