Why would these parents take a 5 year old to a prison anyway?

Are you mentally unstable or something?

They were shocked with taser guns, 50,000 volts(some higher) of electricity. I'm pretty sure that's different than spark in your shop class.

They were also ages 5 to 17. Are you saying a 5 year old gave consent to be tasered?

@12kewlgurl My comment was not directed at you. I am new to this forum and had trouble post a comment to the general forum. My apologies if I offended you in any way

@Dbestrealestateguy i know plenty about electricty my mom is an electrician and my dad is a cop who happens to carry a taser

@12kewlgurl if you know anything about electricity you know that 50,000 volt is not dangerous... if the amperage is low enough. ever pulled of a spark plug wire and been shocked. very very similar almost the exact same thing. the voltage put out by a distributor is around 50,000 volts at its peak spike. But there is very little amperage ( like milli-amps). There reason you can get killed by 110 volts is the amperage is around 15 or 20 amps.

people are getting more stupid as time goes on

@GiovannaNYC technically it was illegal to tase them without consult first and for using 50,000 volts because when they get tased during training its less than 5,000

[12kewlgurl]

@GiovannaNYC Ok my uncle is a cop and he hs a 5 year old see they dont take the children to the whole prison just part of it like the camera room he offices and with the parents they take them to their workspace and usually go to a conference room or something to talk about staying in school.the cops shouldnt have tasered them as u alredy know and they cant say we didnt know because when a cop carries a weapon it is requiered by law tht they have to get maced or tased depending on the weapon so

Those 3 employees should be tied to a post and shocked to death!

@videomaker1289 I'll give you the fact that the parents agreed to the little field trip, but I'm seriously doubting a 5 yr olds mother/father told the cops "sure guy, go ahead and taze my little child with upwards of 50,000 volts of electricity, that'll teach the little shit". I mean, c'mon dude, really?? IF this was the case then I'd be more inclined to agree with you, but I have very serious doubts about that being what happened
