someone should tell them that volts dont kill/harm. Its AMPS that do. 600 volts is nothing is its only .01 of an amp. Why do u think tazers give off thousands of volts. That household pluging gives off 110 volts along with a shitload of amps.

I sure would like to understand the circumstances better since he had not actually assaulted anyone with it. Maybe a little overreaction by leftist acedemia?

April 3rd, 2008 at 1:31 pmWhat? It does not project a lead or charged projectile. It is simply a prank. My younger brother in grade school used to dupe gullible students saying that the 9v battery he held tasted lemony. Numerous dolts bought it when they licked both terminals of the battery and took a zap for thier stupidity. Devious he was, but a terrorist? This is the same mentality, only everyone seems to have a sacrosant dutie to elevate anything they can to the status of terrorism. Tell the dumbfuck teacher, principle, and DA to get a real life. Or better yet, demote them all to dogcatchers.
April 3rd, 2008 at 1:43 pmWe used to use small transformers and 9v to shock the shit out of people when i was a kid. That is what Science class was for to teach. So we were having fun with Science. Cops Mello and chase a real criminal!
April 3rd, 2008 at 1:59 pmJust a FYI. There is about the same joule potential in a photo flash capacitor as you get in a defibrillator..
April 3rd, 2008 at 6:13 pmI did shit like this all the time as a kid. All that will give is a little zap, barely any pain (surprise more than anything else), no damage or incapacitation. I’ve been electrocuted for real. It fucking hurts. There’s no comparison.
This is a case of ‘Respect My AuthoriTAH’ figures whose egos are bigger than their dicks and brains.
Combined.
