You're right that is the parent's fault, and the doctors/nurses that hand out untested drugs to 3 million American kids every day.
Send your 6 year old with a piece of glass after me wearing gloves, and I'll get it away from him without a weapon. Any cop should be able to do the same thing. Unless he has a loaded handgun pointed at the cops, there's absolutely no reason to use a taser on a 6 year old. Cops take down drug addicts with knives, they should be able to handle a kid. Tasers kill adults, and they're not tested on kids. Those cops should be fired today.
Seriously, if you think this is normal policing, stop watching TV for 6 months. You'll see things differently.
