Dec 7 Humanist Forum: Problems with the Use of TASERS

Aram B. James, justice activist and criminal defense attorney, will give a talk on the widespread use of TASERS by police in America. Aspects he will present are: the lack of sufficient testing and regulation by the EPA, an update on the current number of ongoing TASER deaths, and the fact that the vast majority of those tased are from vulnerable populations. Mr. James maintains that TASERs are unsafe for the police and unsafe for the community. Would you like to be punished by an anxious or angry policeman before you have been convicted of a crime?

The Humanist Community Forum will meet at 11am at Mitchell Park Community Center. The Mitchell Park Community Center is located at 3800 Middlefield Road, Palo Alto, Just north of Charleston Road.
