Hmmm. I can think of only one reason: Teens need it more, and there would be a shortage otherwise.

And another one. Police in BC don't believe in that pansy pepper spray stuff. They jump straight to Tasering.

Braidwood speaks out on child Taser case

Police are saying little about the use of a Taser on an 11-year-old boy in Prince George, B.C., but the case is raising a number of concerns.

The head of the inquiry into the police use of Tasers in B.C. and the death of Robert Dziekanski says the child's case is another reminder that police should not investigate police.

Thomas Braidwood is calling for an independent watchdog to review police conduct.

The Mounties have asked the West Vancouver Police Department to review how they handled the child Taser case, but Braidwood says that's far from satisfactory.

Braidwood was appointed by the B.C. government to oversee an inquiry on the use of conducted energy weapons in the province, and to make recommendations respecting their appropriate use. He also carried out an inquiry into the death of Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski, who died after being shocked several times with a stun gun at Vancouver airport.
Boy a suspect in stabbing

Police say the boy was a suspect in the stabbing of a 37-year-old man in Prince George and a Taser was used in his arrest.

Officers found the boy inside a group home next door to the crime scene, and when he came out, he was shocked with a stun gun.

He was taken to hospital for assessment and then taken into police custody, where he remains. The stabbing victim is recovering from his wounds.

The B.C. Civil Liberties Association has called on police to release more information about the incident and why a Taser had to be used on a child.

Simon Fraser University criminologist David MacAlister says it's hard to draw conclusions about the officers' conduct until more details come out. But he believes the boy is the youngest person ever to be shocked with a stun gun by the RCMP in Canada.

He pointed out that in Braidwood's final report on Taser use, it said there is a concern about police using stun guns on individuals who are particularly thin because there is only a thin layer between their skin and heart.

The Mounties have been fiercely criticized over the use of stun guns since Dziekanski died.
