Non-lethal, totally.

On Thursday, officers were taking Coleman from the 5th District station to court when "he again became combative" and a Taser was used "to gain control of the subject," police said.

Coleman's father, Percy Coleman, said today that police “aren’t going to get away with it.”

“My son … (has) never been in trouble,” he said. “He’s a grad of the University of Chicago. They won’t be able to run him out that he’s a drug dealer, this and that.

Unless the cops have a boatload of video explicitly displaying them not abusing the electro-shock therapy, I'm inclined to say they fucked up.

On the flip side, let's say this dude's an asshole and needed to be restrained...
The best solution you got is zapping them?  No joint locks, holds, or anything else that doesn't involve fucking with the fundamental force that makes your heart beat?

I hereby state that anyone who knowingly works for the governmental legal system in this country, at any level, is implicitly supporting said system, and is therefore insane.
