I'm guessing they meant "old" as in "no one uses it anymore, it's dead"

Just wanna get a debate going man. I don't even like sports nor do i care honestly. I wouldn't call me a "very vocal person"

I mean, just wanted to get a debate going man. Me having a different opinion got me on the legit death list of some people here.

Also I don't really know how Lammy's upvote system works, but I think me only getting -3 "points"(?) means that at least some people also think that wasn't that much of an abuse of power.

Also hi mom I'm famous

Come on, English is my 2nd language, give me at least a bit of slack.

Not exactly more than an average person's life.

First, again, tasers aren't always deadly. In the vast majority of cases, they aren't. I agree we should move towards solutions with 0% fatality, or change tasers to be more towards 0%, but I'm no taser expert.

Secondly, I don't just mean the athletes career. What I meant by "their career" is their body. Crazy people can hurt the athletes, badly. I'd much rather have one drunk fan being tased than a world athlete being handicapped. And I don't think that's so fucked up.

Great, now cursing. Real classy, random internet person. Bye and have a bad day.

I agree with most of what you say, but as you said, it's up to the organizers to make sure nothing goes horribly bad. And I just think that in the case of sports in a stadium, there needs to be 0 tolerance towards people breaking on-field. I agree it's never completely safe, and most of the time the sport itself is way more dangerous than the crowd, but the security team has one job, and in the case presented here they did everything they could, and that's the way it should be. 0 tolerance, since it can go downhill very fast.

Ah yes, because a stadium with thousands of people is exactly as manageable as your backyard.

Also, saying "tase or shoot people" is ridiculous. Don't put those in the same category. One is meant to neutralize, the other to kill.

Also also, I like how you disregard completely the point about how they're running - probably sprinting even. Which is again, much less manageable than your (honestly unreleated) example of "people that walk past my no traspassing signs".

Seriously, put yourself in the situation for just a second and think again how chill you would've been.

I'm sorry, but people with heart conditions wouldn't barge in on a sport event like that through security. And if they did, they're a new kind of stupid. Police shouldn't be less effective at their job in order to take extra measures towards dangerous people with disabilities. Security for the majority comes before the security of the minority (which I 100% agree should be considered, but I'm not taser expert. I don't know how to make them less deadly, but they 100% should be). Especially when the minority is the one breaking the law.

I'm no expert about tasers and their lethality, so I won't argue against that. If it's indeed so lethal then ok.

But you're really undervaluing the danger of people barging through security towards athletes. No, they won't "moon them", and you using such a light language over someone who violently barged through security is either ignorantly innocent, or just a way to belittle security and/or cops.

People are dangerous, and security needs to do everything they can to prevent them from getting in close contact with athletes/celebrities. I can easily see a very similar situation end in an athlete losing their career because a crazed fan of the opposite team drank one sip of beer too much and decided to barge and tackle the living hell out of them.

I don't think it's only a danger from terrorists, also regular people wanting to hurt athlists. Take Monica Seles as an example.

You really can't ever know what a man wants or will do to a "celebrity" if left unchecked.

Im a simple man.

I see nier, I upvote.
