I got pepper sprayed once. It's not fun. - Remlik Apr 6, 08:49
Jumpin's. Where is all this anger when I want to torture and kill rapists and murderers? :) -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 08:33 1
- I'm with you. Seems to me that 2 cops should have been able to grab the kid and disarm him without injury to any of them. - Jim Apr 6, 08:36
all 8 year olds deserve a little pepper spray...nm - x Apr 6, 08:31 9
- I can get you a deal on mustard spray. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 08:34 1
  - "Ahhh! It's so tangy!" -- nm - Reagen Apr 6, 08:35
- only a little? -- nm - moles Apr 6, 08:33
- I'm starting to get the feeling that deep down, hyde *doesn't* believe that children are our future -- nm - prayformojo Apr 6, 08:32 2
  - children, children, children are the future!....nm - x Apr 6, 08:34
  - You misread, he wants to build a *better* future. -- nm - Spawn Apr 6, 08:33
- I would say, all minors. - Spawn Apr 6, 08:32 2
  - ever seen Under Seige 2? Love the pepper spray scene in that -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 08:32 1
    - good stuff -- nm - Spawn Apr 6, 08:43
before pepper spray they would've just shot him. - mafic Apr 6, 08:28 5
- it's also better than tasing him. -- nm - Reagen Apr 6, 08:29 4
  - Are you referring to the kid that was tased at a daycare here. - Amy Apr 6, 08:33 2
    - yikes. no, just running through the alternatives. -- nm - Reagen Apr 6, 08:35
    - Hey, they slapped him first. -- nm - Spawn Apr 6, 08:35
  - yeah. tasers are pretty dangerous even for adults. -- nm - mafic Apr 6, 08:31
Not quite. He was holding a blade of some kind and in the CNN video said he was fantasizing about hurting his teachers - TWuG Apr 6, 08:26 9
- Not sure about your IM. He was on the Today show this AM with his mom. He seems a normal kid and no one can figure out why he reacts like this - decline Apr 6, 08:39 1
  - he was tired from all the stabbing. -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 08:43
- if cops can't disarm an 8 year old without pepper sparying him they should give up/ (he is a crazy little bastard though) -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 08:27 6
  - I'm sure they could but seem to me trying to disarm a crazed 8 year old with a knife is more likely to get someone really hurt -- nm - decline Apr 6, 08:35 1
    - agreed, he's big enough to hurt someone. -- nm - loosilu Apr 6, 08:35
  - I have no problem whatsoever. The kid is 8. If he's already disobeying adults to dismarm (least of all cops), then maybe the... - Name Withheld By Request Apr 6, 08:32
  - No sympathy here. -- nm - TWuG Apr 6, 08:30
  - they probably could have, but there's a fair chance the kid ends up hurt worse than with the pepper spray. -- nm - mafic Apr 6, 08:29
  - You minimize risks every time. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 6, 08:29
not once but twice. -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 08:25 3
- the kid sounds like a future serial killer though. -- nm - Beaker Apr 6, 08:26
- Well, clearly the kid didn't learn a lesson from Spray #1 so hit him again. - Will Hunting Apr 6, 08:26
- Oh, twice? Well, that changes things. -- nm - Beryllium (iPhone) Apr 6, 08:26
