I am talking about children being tasered and not just whether this little girl should have been tasered based on the details of what happened at Victoria Secrets.

And that's fantastic. No sarcasm, things are kind of all over the place for me right now so I'm not certain about anything I think. I'm still figuring out how I actually feel about this (other than hypothesizing on how I think I'll feel), as i do think that the details are important. I look forward to future developments in this case, like if the mother does launch an investigation.
I think I may be getting caught up on/putting too much emphasis on the details because in the back of my head, I know that I may have to make some questionable choices in the future on the path that I'm going after. I mean I realize that a cop in a suburban mall =/= the military, but I don't want to let the context go quite yet. Note that this is not me saying that I will attack children without question if you put a weapon in my head, top secret clearance board members who are possibly looking at this.
