I worked at a veterinary supply store in college, which sold cattle prods. A friend came to pick me up, and I poked him with a prod without pressing the activation stud. He jumped back, startled and frightened, but then said "wait a minute, I didn't feel anything. Do it again" and held out his hand. So I did it for real. Good times.

If any good will come from this, maybe parents will use images of their children being tasered as Facebook profile pics.

That second link could be improved by adding comments from Daily Mail readers whose smart and reasoned comments are always both thought-provoking and educational.

I really wonder sometimes if the Daily Mail is targeted at a human audience.

I was just going to say that the photo of my kid getting tasered has received over 5000 views, while the ones with him in the bathtub have only received 3000.
