I Was Right To Tase Mom In Front Of Kids

A N.Y. city police officer stopped a minivan because he thought she was talking on a cell phone and was going 5 miles over the speed limit. When the officer approached the car, he saw that there were 2 children in the car. As the officer tried to talk to the woman in the van, he said she was being disorderly and he could not see her hands during part of the conversation. He felt that he needed to tase her, so he did it twice. He claimed he thought she was going to drive off and he didn't want to have a vehicle pursuit with children in the car. The officer's supervisor said there was nothing wrong with what he did, but the officer was suspended.

I have to agree with the civilian in this situation. She had 2 children in the car with her. To see there mother being hurt by a police officer could be very disturbing to them. I have to think that there would have been a better way to control this situation. A police officer is supposed to be a role model for children and they are supposed to help people, not hurt their mothers. I also think that the suspension was the right move for the officer's supervisor. He had to show some form of punishment for his actions.

I have learned a valuable lesson from this story. If you feel like you were not in the wrong when you are stopped by an officer, you still need to listen and cooperate with them. They are your authority. You can deal with the situation later with the court if you feel that it is necessary. I do think that this officer could have handled this situation better.

Testing Children with Vaccination

Check it out here

Emory University and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta is just one of six locations that are testing 100 children against the H1N1 or swine flu. After testing on adults, there were no major safety concerns so they approved to test it with children. Since children are at a higher risk for this virus, they want to start now to protect them from it.

After reading this article, I myself was a little weary of letting someone test children without for sure knowing the right dosage or side affects that could occur. This virus does concern me, but I would have to have a 100% guarantee that my child would be alright after taking this vaccination. I am thankful for people that are courageous enough to further the knowledge of this remedy by being the guinea pigs so to speak. I myself just could not do it.

Robots Parking Your Car?

Have you ever been in a large city and had no where to park? They may have came up with the perfect solution. Robots are now parking your cars on top of each other to provide more room. Yes you heard me right, robots are parking your car. After you park your car, it is moved to a different level, either up or down. Then they can also be moved from left to right. This triples the amount of parking spaces. At first I thought that there was no way this could work. If you wanted to leave before someone else, how long would you have to wait before your car got to you? Since the cars can move up, down, left, and right it could take only seconds. The longest they said it might take would be a minute or so. There is always going to be parking problems in larger cities. I think this is a great idea. Like they said, it is a very efficient way to create a solution to this problem.

Hopefully this works!
