Boingboing reports student tasered at library for not showing ID.
Scary stuff. I post this from a library. The security guards here are friendly, although there are too many of them compared to librarians. I was hassled one time over at the law library by campus security goons. I was once threatened with a taser by a county cop. There've been lots of stories recently of taser-related deaths.
Updates: video of the guy's lawyer and the tasering, video of a demonstration/protest. ACLU comment. Ohio cop fired in taser incident. Closer to home, purdue student attacked by cop w taser. www.campaignagainstthetaser.com
