Douglas Elliott: Zapping the prof would provide better study for Taser use

Dear Editor: What’s this crap about using pigs to test the casualty rate regarding the use of Tasers? What’s a pig going to tell you after being shot up with drugs, then zapped by a 50,000-volt electrical charge?

If it’s not dead, it’ll just squeal like hell to register a relative discomfort at being electrocuted.
