Tasers have become a punch line. This will persist until somebody who is relatively innocent (i.e., not somebody armed and presenting a threat like this doofus at a sporting event) is killed by a taser.

People who think a taser shock is funny should ask themselves whether they they would respond the same way if five cops beat the offender with their billy clubs for ten minutes.
