I disagree on this. The child was not controllable in the situation and was resisting arrest.

To any 10 year old, they should know better to listen to a cop and they know why.

The cop was doing his duty and did not require the mother's consent to use the taser. Should the child have been armed with a knife, it should have been the same outcome.

A cop's prime job is to control situations, and in this case he did without long term harm. Ergo, the parents should not be billed the costs.

not true, if you call 911 in the US you can still be billed for services regardless of what situation is involved. it's like the morons who get hurt in rugged off limits areas and call 911 for help, in certen western states like TX, CO, & AZ you'll be billed for your rescue and any medical help the people who save you incur to get you.

but to point out any canadian kid I think would know to stop when a cop shows up
