Alexandria police Cpls. Ricky Vercher (from left) and Gary Mouliere and Sgt. J.D. Griffith react to the electrical shock of a Taser. By late May, Tasers will be in the hands of city patrol officers. The department’s street team already carries Tasers.

1. Excellent!
They should know what a "non-lethal" device feels like before they start using it on others.

2. Standard Operating Procedure
If cops want to carry a taser, they must be tasered themselves.

I think the world would be better off if we all utilized that mantra: people who wanted to use dangerous things like guns, cattle prods, spurs, conservatism and other items on others, they had to use them on themselves first.

Solve some issues, may create others - I would buy the video though...

3. Cpl. Mouliere claims he felt no pain, but that first photo says different!
Look how the three cops are all holding on to one another. Moral support or what?
