Need a quick pick-me-up? Electroshock therapy, police-style! Video of an abusive prisoner being incapacitated with a non-lethal, handheld, electrical device. Instant mood transformation is achieved. (1.5m of quicktime) More videos available here. There's also a video (13m of mpeg) of volunteers being zapped, not available on the page above. (Much laughter on that last one, because, you know... pain is funny.) Probably not for the squeamish. via mister pants

Morbidly compelling... but leaves a bitter taste in your mouth, like when you say "neo-nazi" ten times really fast.

...because 25-cent bullets are for cheapskates.

That's the whole point of slapstick.

Of course, until someone dies.
