Clearly he wasn't. He claims it was an accident, says he thought the cartridge had been removed. I believe him, it would be ridiculous to think he actually wanted to taze the kid. But, it was still absolutely ridiculous to point your gun at a kid, even jokingly. He should lose his job and the lawsuit.

Forget pointing the gun at the kid - he actually pulled the trigger!

Right. It was absolutely ridiculous just to point it at him. Pulling the trigger just magnifies the stupidity.

If it was really an accident, I bet the cop shit his pants when it went off.

Without exerting authority over this kid, the cop faced the prospect of losing control of the crowd which could have resulted in his car not being washed.

Nope. Will be interesting to see how the pigs union gets him out of this mess.

He should be charged with assault with a deadly weapon and anything else they can throw at him. You know, like it would be if someone "accidentally" tased a police officer?

The commentary on this site is WAY funnier than the incident. Incedent? Incident.

Even though he may have been joking and I'm sure he didn't mean to actually tase the kid this shows an authority problem that the officer has. Also a stupidity problem. Dude should be fired, if the family wants to sue they should win, yada yada yada.
