Activists seek moratorium on use of Tasers by police

From the Post-Gazette:

About a dozen human rights activists and people who had been stunned by Tasers gathered yesterday to call for a moratorium on the use of the weapon by police.

I’ve never been tasered, thankfully, but it did recently cause/precipitate the death of a man in a Pittsburgh neighborhood. Is this another instance where technology removes individuals from a situation where human contact is necessary?
