And here's the incident story. Tasered ten times while recieving medical aid.

Bailey Tasered Rich 10 times in an attempt to restrain him, Shaw said.

“He would just scream and not respond any other way to the Tasers,” Martin said. “The whole area smelled like burning flesh. It was disgusting. I knew several people who were very close to throwing up.”

Such specious bullshit.

Mmm, taser propaganda in a light broth of the misunderstanding of psychedelics. Where's the part where they explain what a bad scene it is to get tasered while you're tripping? 'Cause that's the part I kept expecting to see.

Shit, if someone tasered me deep in the throes of a psychedelic experience I fully expect I'd develop the ability to fly and make people's heads explode with my mind power alone.

So they were glad they had the Taser because otherwise they would have shot the silly bugger.

Yes, it is imperative they prevent stoned students from walking into things.

'After tying Rich with zip ties and putting a mesh bag, also known as a spit shield, over his head, authorities forced him into an ambulance....'

Because that's how I like to be treated when I've just fallen one floor onto the ground and been shot with a taser ten times. Zip ties and a bag over my head. I seem to recall that EMTs can employ restraints to keep transportees from flailing around and such. Or I guess they can use a taser....?

God. Tasered 10 times on mushrooms, after falling out of a window or balcony?! That sounds like a very special sort of hell. [I find it a little hard to believe that seven adults couldn't hold the kid down without resorting to Tasering. And if he wasn't really responding to the Tasering beyond screaming in pain, why the _fuck_ did they think that more Tasering would change things?]

A little understanding of psychedelics would've gone a _long_ way here. On the kid's side as well... sounds like he was tripping for the first time, and tripping alone, which is a pretty dumb idea.

I don't need to be tripping on anything to respond to tazers only by screaming. That shit hurts. What else do they expect me to do? Break out a song and dance routine of singing in the rain?

Uh, he bit a cop.

Actually, he bit a university security officer, which is more like an armed janitor.

Standard restraint procedure (at least among pros as compared to this collection of fools, tankers, bullies and incompetents) is one person on each limb and one person on the head and then you sit on him and talk until things calm down. So by the time the taser arrived with the duty officer, they had two more people than are needed to do it right. But first it was time for a little payback.
