A year after repeatedly electrocuting a kid who was lying on the floor of the library in pain, UCLA has finally come out with a new policy regarding when officers can use Tasers. (This according to the Daily Bruin, which has not actually seen a copy of the new policy).
The highlights include a prohibition on Tasing people engaged in passive resistance and a requirement that police officers actually get trained by someone other than the company who makes the weapon.
Can someone please tell me why it took more than a year to come up with this?

Jon,
Once again you're missing the key issue: the girlish sounds the UCLA library guy made while getting tased.
