Chapter 22 - Afraid of being tasered? Use a baby as a shield. (Come on - you never thought of that?)

That's what it says under Chapter 22 - "Survival with People", in the U.S. Army Survival Manual.

Waukesha, WI - Parents were called for a conference last week at their son's middle school because the child had been bullying other students. Tempers flared, words were exchanged, the cops were called by school officials, and when the unruly father resisted arrest, one of the officers pointed a taser at "daddy" - who then grabbed his other child, a 13-month baby, and held the child up as a shield.

You can read the entire story here on Wisconsin Newsvine.

Baby's safe. Daddy and Mommy were arrested. The bully son was tasered the next day because he continued his bully ways but he's over the age of 6 so that's OK. Heyyyy...I wonder how much tasers go for these days?
