I'm not saying the kid is going to do something, I'm saying the kid could do something. Furthermore, I'm not sure why we are all assuming that the first thing the copper thought to do is whip out his tazer. We have one two paragraph article and a video clip of a girl saying she was tazered. Hell in another thread just today we have Vendzilla going on about a 12-year-old girl lying during a congressional hearing about being molested just so her dad doesn't get custody!

A 12-year-old is not some innocent three-year-old baby. They are smart, they can handle themselves, and they know what to do when they need to, especially a 12-year-old from a rough neighborhood.
