New figures have been released under Freedom of Information laws
They show that 323 under-18s were fired on in 2011
It was also revealed that in 2010, 74 children were threatened by having the Taser's sights trained on them without firing the weapon
Tasers are being used by police against children as young as 11 almost every day, figures have revealed.
Armed officers discharged, targeted or threatened to use the 50,000-volt weapons against youngsters more than 320 times a year - an 11-fold increase from the first year they were cleared for use against under-18s in 2007.
It emerged earlier this year that a girl aged just 12 had been shot by police with a Taser device in St Helens. Other children aged 11 have been threatened by officers with the weapons, forces have admitted.
Critics pointed out that the revelations about the controversial of Tasers by the police come at a bad time for forces - just as they are 'in the dock' over their conduct in the Plebgate scandal.
In the first year of officers being cleared to Taser children, they were used just 29 times in England. By 2009, this total had increased to 135.
New figures released to Parliament show that one year later, in 2010, the weapons were used 339 times against children. By 2011 - the latest year that figures are available, the total stood at 323.
The figures were not broken down into whether the guns were fired, or whether officers targeted children with a red dot laser to threaten them.
Sophie Khan, solicitor-advocate specialising in Taser-related injuries and director of Police Action Centre, said she was appalled by the findings - and called for the use of Tasers on children to be prohibited.
'It is shocking that Tasers have been used on under 18s nearly once a day for the last two years,' she said.
'Tasers should only be used on children and young adults if there is no other feasible way to restrain them due to the specific health risks they could suffer. If the Taser is fired at their chest there is a higher risk they will suffer a cardiac arrest.
'The statistics show that the Taser is being used in contravention of the Taser Policy and Guidance, due to the dramatic increase in their use on under 18's. This needs to be addressed by the police forces immediately before there is a serious injury caused to a child or young adults.'
David Green, chief executive of the Civitas think tank, said: 'It seems there is a risk of misuse of Tasers, that the police will use them as an on-the-spot punishment.
'These figures come at a time when the police is in the dock over perceived untrustworthiness.'
In one of the most shocking cases, Merseyside Police shot a 12-year-old girl in St Helens as she brandished two knives and threatened to harm herself.
At the time a spokesman said: 'The Taser was deployed as a means to safely detain the girl and prevent serious harm to both her, the public and the officers.
'The girl was uninjured and was subsequently arrested and cautioned for the offence.'
Freedom of Information requests have revealed that over the past three years, at least six children aged only 14 have been shot with Tasers, four ages 15 and 13 aged 16. Children as young as 11 have been threatened.
The latest figures, released following a parliamentary question asked by Lib Dem backbencher Julian Huppert, did not break down the 2011 figures into the way the stun guns were deployed.
But figures for 2009/10, released last year, show that of the 114 usages against children, 31 had been shot with Tasers - where an officer pulls the trigger shooting out a pointed barb attached by a wire to deliver an electric shock.
Another 74 were 'red dotted' - a threatening gesture by officers pointing the Taser at the child pinpointing exactly where the barbs will hit their body with a red 'sniper's' dot.
Experts say even deploying the red dot is still very threatening and can constitute assault.
On 18 occasions the Taser was 'drawn' by police as a show of force, while in nine cases the 'drive stun mode' was used to stun a suspect.
Only specialist officers can use Tasers at present, but last year the Police Federation called for every officer to be armed with one. There are 12,000 Tasers on the streets.
Official guidance from the Association of Chief Police Officers states that 'children and adults of smaller stature as being at potentially greater risk from the cardiac effects of Taser currents than normal adults of average or large stature'.
The 2008 document added: 'Until more research is undertaken to clarify the vulnerability of children to Taser currents, children and persons of small stature should be considered at possible greater risk than adults.'
Last night Julian Huppert, the Lib Dem MP who uncovered the statistics, said: 'It is very alarming that hundreds of children are having Tasers used against them every year.
'Whilst of course they do have a role, the Home Office should have a better grip on exactly when they are being used.
'It's alarming how many children are being targeted. It seems that, step by step, we are moving closer to a militarised police force rather than a civilian police force.'
Last year police were accused last night of behaving like 'thugs with weapons' after firing a 50,000-volt Taser into the back of a blind man.
An officer mistook stroke victim Colin Farmer's white stick for a samurai sword and discharged the stun gun - leaving the retired architect writhing in agony on the ground.
Last night a spokesman for the Home Office said: 'The Home Office and the police have rigorously tested Taser and independent medical assessments have concluded that the risk of serious or life threatening injuries is low.
'They are only used by officers who have been carefully selected and trained and in situations where there is a serious threat of violence.
'Taser provides the police with an additional tactical option that is less-lethal than conventional firearms and there have been no reported serious injuries or deaths in the UK directly linked to their use.'
Reminds me of this:
20 October 1994 said:Q: I would like to go back to the subject of the Nephilim.
Now you said the Nephilim were a group of humanoid types
brought here to earth to be enforcers, is that correct?
A: Yes.
Q: When were they brought here?
A: 9046 B.C. one reference.
Q: They were giants, is that correct?
A: Yes.
Q: They were presented to the people as the representatives,
or "Sons" of God, is that correct?
A: Yes.
Q: You say these dudes were 11 to 14 feet tall...
A: Yes.
Q: You and the ancient literature say that these sons of god
intermarried with human women, is that correct?
A: Yes.
Q: Did they do that the same way it is done today, that is,
sexual interaction?
A: No.
Q: How was it done?
A: Forced insemination.
Q: So, it was artificial insemination?
A: Close.
Q: Were these beings like us, including their sexual
apparati?
A: Close.
Q: Any significant differences?
A: Three gonads.
23 October 1994 said:Q: (L) Tell us again who are the Nephilim?
A: Enforcers. Slaves of Orion. From Planet 3C, or 3rd star,
3rd planet.
Q: (L) You said the other night that the Nephalim came from
some area around the constellation Scorpio, is that
correct? A: Originally seeded there but you were too.
Q: (L) We were originally seeded somewhere else? Where?
Orion? What is the name of that planet?
A: D'Ankhiar. Ankh is ancient symbolism of this planet. Is
female symbol. Stands for mother planet.
Q: (L) Is this other planet our original home?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) What is it like back Home?
A: Spent. Cindered. Burned up.
Q: (L) So it's true, you can't go home?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) These Nephilim, how tall were they again?
A: Up to 15 feet maximum.
Q: (L) Was Goliath, who was killed by David, one of the
Nephilim? A: Yes. In legend. Actual event depicted in
story was earlier.
Q: (L) Was it actually David and Goliath?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Did he actually slay him with a stone from a
slingshot? A: Close.
Q: (L) Were these Nephilim genetically intermixed with human
beings?
A: Temporarily.
Q: (L) Why only temporarily?
A: DNA conflict.
Nov 1994 said:Q: (L) Who carved the stone heads on Easter Island?
A: Lemurian descendants.
Q: (L) The natives say the stones walked into position. Is
this true?
A: No.
Q: (L) Well, how?
A: Tonal vibration.
Q: (L) And what did these stones represent?
A: Nephalim.
Q: (L) Is this what the Nephilim looked like?
A: Close.
Q: (L) Does that mean that the Nephilim were present in
Lemuria?
A: Close.
Q: (L) Where was Lemuria located?
A: Pacific off South America.
Q: (L) So when the Easter Island natives talk about their
ancestors they are talking about people who came from the
direction of South America?
A: No. Right near all around. Easter Island is remnant of
Lemuria.
Q: (L) What happened to Lemuria?
A: Submerged close to time you refer to as Fall of Eden,
approximately.
Q: (L) Well if the Nephilim were brought here 9 to 12
thousand years ago...
A: Last visit. Have been here 5 times. Will return.
Q: (L) The Nephilim are going to return? Where do the
Nephilim currently live?
A: Orion.
Q: (L) They live in the constellation Orion? Where is their
planet?
A: Don't have one. In transit.
Q: (L) The whole dadgum bunch is in transit?
A: Three vehicles.
Q: (L) How many Nephilim does each vehicle hold?
A: About 12 million.
Q: (L) Are they coming to help us?
A: No. Wave comet cluster all using same energy.
Q: (L) Using same energy to what?
A: Pass through space\time....
Q: (L) Now, you say these Nephilim are coming and there is
about 36 million of them, correct?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) And they are the enforcers of the Grays and Lizzies,
is that correct?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Well, let's sit back and watch the show!...
Q: (L) If the Nephilim are coming 36 million strong as
enforcers for the Lizzies, does the Confederation have a
like amount for defense?
A: We don't operate that way.
Q: (L) Are we just going to have to fight them off ourselves?
A: Think of The Wizard of Oz. It was inspired by us.
Q: (L) Does the witch represent the Lizzies?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) So, is there something we have or can do...
A: Glenda like us.
Q: (L) And who is the Wizard? Is that the Beast or the U.S.
Govt?
A: Close. Illuminati.
Q: (L) Are the monkeys the Nephilim.
A: Close enough.
Q: (L) If water destroyed the witch, and the witch represents
the Lizzies, can we destroy the Lizzies?
A: Knowledge.
Q: (L) But there are only a few on the planet who have the
knowledge, am I correct?
A: What do you mean? Against all when all when time comes.
Q: (L) So the 36 million will be against all on the planet
when the time comes?
A: Of course.
Q: (L) And those who have the knowledge and can dispense it
to others ...
A: Yes. ...
Q: (L) Now you say there are 36 million Nephilim heading this
way, are they 4th density beings?
A: No. They live in 4 d but are 3 d. They are as physical as
you. Behave like gestapo. Gestapo was inspired by
Nephilim through Lizard beings' influence over Hitler.
It was a practice run.
Q: (L) Are any of the Nephilim going to be friendly toward
us?
A: No.
Q: (L) Now, you said that the Nephilim were seeded on a
planet called D'Ankhiar as were human beings. When you
said we were seeded there, what did you mean.
A: Was proper environment for molecularization.
Q: (L) Are you saying that the physical bodies on planet
earth, the various types of mankind such as Neanderthal,
Cro-Magnon, Australopithicus etc., were generated on that
other planet and then brought here?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) I am assuming that if the Nephilim are 3 d that they
die like we do. Is this correct?
A: Yes.
Q: (L) So, we can shoot them and they will die?
A: Correct. But wrong approach.
Q: (L) What is the right approach?
A: Knowledge protects.
Q: (L) Well, if a 15 foot tall guy comes at me and wants to
knock me around, what is knowledge going to do to protect
me? A: You will be in 4th density.
Q: (L) So, before they get here we will be 4 d?
A: Crossing.
Q: (L) All three of us?
A: Yes, and many others.
Q: (L) So, we are not going to have to deal with the
Nephilim?
A: Not correct.
Q: (L) Does this mean that there will be 3 and 4 d beings on
the planet at the same time and that some will have to
deal with these guys and some won't?
A: But you will have to too.
Q: (L) I don't understand. Are these Nephilim coming here to
transition to 4 d also?
A: They already live there as 3 density beings.
Demonstration: When you are abducted you are 3rd density
but you are taken into 4th density.
24 Sept 1995 said:Q: (L) I want to get back on my question that you have not
answered... I want to know who, exactly, and why, exactly,
genetically engineered the Semitic people, and why there
is such an adversarial attitude between them and the Celts
and Aryans.
A: It is not just between the Jews and Celts, if you will
take notice. Besides, it is the individual aural profile
that counts and not groupings or classifications. But, to
answer your question: there are many reasons both from on
and off the planet.
Q: (L) Why was Hitler so determined, beyond all reason, even
to his own self-destruction, to annihilate the Jews?
A: Many reasons and very complex. But, remember, while still
a child, Hitler made a conscious choice to align himself
with the "forces of darkness," in order to fulfill his
desires for conquest and to unite the Germanic peoples.
Henceforth, he was totally controlled, mind, body, and
soul, by STS forces.
Q: (L) So, what were the purposes of the STS forces that were
controlling Hitler causing him to desire to annihilate an
entire group of people?
A: To create an adequate "breeding ground" for the
reintroduction of the Nephalim, for the purpose of total
control of the 3rd density earth prior to elevation to 4th
density, where such conquest is more difficult and less
certain!
Q: (L) Do you mean "breeding ground" in the sense of genetic
breeding?
A: Yes. Third density.
Q: (L) Did they accomplish this goal?
A: No.
Q: (L) So, the creation of the Germanic "Master Race" was
what they were going after, to create this "breeding
ground?"
A: Yes.
Q: (L) And, getting rid of the Jews was significant?
Couldn't a Germanic master race be created without
destroying another group?
A: No.
Q: Why?
A: Because of 4th density prior encoding mission destiny
profile.
Q: (L) What does that mean?
A: This means encoding to activate after elevation to 4th
density, thus if not eliminated, negates Nephalim
domination and absorption. Jews were prior encoded to
carry out mission after conversion, though on individual
basis. The Nazis did not exactly know why they were being
driven to destroy them, because they were being controlled
from 4th density STS. But, Hitler communicated directly
with Lizards, and Orion STS, and was instructed on how to
create the "master race."
Q: (L) And they were going to use this as their basis to
introduce a new blend of the Nephilim... (RC) And the New
World Order... their version of it. (L) Well, what is the
plan now?
A: We cannot tell you this yet, as you would seek to reveal
it prematurely, leading to your destruction!!!!
Q: (F) Yes, Laura, I keep telling you that your curiosity is
going to bring strange men to the door who are going to
say: "Come with us, please!" (L) Well, I can't help it!
Meanwhile, back to the Celts: obviously if the Lizard
Beings thought that the Aryans/Celts were a good breeding
ground for this "Nephilim Master Race," then it must be
because there is something genetically inherent in them
that makes them desirable in this sense. Is this correct?
A: No, not in the sense you are thinking. We suggest that
you rephrase this question after careful reflection on the
implications.
7 October 1995 said:Q: (L) I have thought about my question from the last session
and I want to ask it this way: You have said that Hitler
received instructions from higher density beings about
creating a 'Master Race.' Why were the Aryan genetic
types seen to be more desirable for creation of this
Germanic 'master race?'
A: Both, similarity and ancestral link most unblemished from
Orion 3rd and 4th density stock.
Q: (L) So they were essentially trying to breed a group of
people like themselves?
A: Yes.
Q:
A: Not point. How would you suggest creation?
Q: (L) Okay. They were preparing this breeding ground, so to
speak. Obviously this was for the introduction of some
other genetic strain. What was this?
A: Nephalim.
Q: (L) Well, if the Nephilim are coming in ships, 36 million
of them, why bother to create half-breeds here?
A: Yes, but having an "advance party" makes 3rd density
conquest much easier.
Q: (L) So, this Master Race was supposed to get everything
ready...
A: Yes.
Q: (L) Okay, what is it about the Semitic genes that was
considered to be so undesirable in the creation of this
'Master Race?'
A: Would blemish genetic characteristics inclined to
ruthlessness and domination.
Q: (L) So, you are saying that there is something, some
genetic tendency or set of genes in the Semitic type that
would counteract this?
A: Close.
Q: (L) But isn't the nature of a person determined by their
soul and not the physical body?
A: Partially, remember, aural profile and karmic reference
merges with physical structure.
Q: (L) So you are saying that particular genetic conditions
are a physical reflection of a spiritual orientation?
That the soul must match itself to the genetics, even if
only in potential?
A: Yes, precisely.
Q: (L) So a person's potential for spiritual advancement or
unfoldment is, to a great extent, dependent upon their
genes?
A: Natural process marries with systematic construct when
present.
24 Feb 1996 said:Q: (L) I was reading some of the transcripts earlier today.
One of the things I read was about the Nephilim and their
interactions with human beings and about other planets and
molecularization, etc. Then, I was reading about the
planet Kantek. Are there any human beings, on Earth, at
the present time, who carry in them the Nephilim genes?
A: Yes.
...
Q: (L) Would these Nephilim genetics be passed down in the
natural way, or would they be the result of genetic
manipulation by genetically altering a fetus and then
putting it back?
A: No to latter. One clue: double Y chromosomes.
Q: (W) That's male...
A: Nephalim were.
Q: (L) They, were male. Women are a double X, men are XY.
A: Prisons are filled with double Y's with monstrous
personality disorders, almost always Caucasian and over-
sized. Also, "bikers" often carry the gene. We suggest
you not share this in a general way on the net!!!
Q: (L) On tv they interviewed a serial killer. He was HUGE!
He described killing. The shrink who was analyzing said
he did it because he wanted to get caught. I did NOT get
that feeling. I think he did it just because it was what
he did. Bikers often carry the gene... and this is why
they form 'gangs.' Nephalim. Bikers. Big. Caucasian.
My, my, my. Is there any other clue you can give?
A: Nephalim are not currently on your world, just trace
residuals.
Q: (L) Trace residuals in people. And there are supposed to
be 36 million of them coming...
A: With the wave.
31 July 1997 said:Q: ... So, let me ask this: are there 36 million Lizards on their way here?
A: The Lizard beings occupy 4th density.
Q: Are you saying that because they occupy 4th density, they don't have to COME here because they ARE here?
A: Close.
Q: Now, you have told us that there ARE 36 million Nephilim on the way.
A: Nephilim are 3rd density; big difference.
22 July 2000 said:A: We wish to review some things first. The concept of a "master race" put forward by the Nazis was merely a 4th density STS effort to create a physical vehicle with the correct frequency resonance vibration for 4th density STS souls to occupy in 3rd density. It was also a "trial run" for planned events in what you perceive to be your future.
Q: (L) You mean with a strong STS frequency so they can have a "vehicle" in 3rd density, so to speak?
A: Correct. Frequency resonance vibration! Very important.
Q: (L) So, that is why they are programming and experimenting? And all these folks running around who some think are "programmed," could be individuals who are raising their nastiness levels high enough to accommodate the truly negative STS 4th density - sort of like walk-ins or something, only not nice ones?
A: You do not have very many of those present yet, but that was, and still is, the plan of some of the 4th density STS types.
5 August 2000 said:Q: Okay, last session you brought up the subject of Frequency Resonance Vibration. You suggested that there are certain STS forces who are developing or creating or managing physical bodies that they are trying to increase the frequency in so that they will have bodies that are wired so that they can manifest directly into 3rd density, since that seems to be the real barrier that prevents an all-out invasion, the fact that we are in 3rd density and they are in 4th. Now, I assumed that the same function could be true for STO individuals. It seems that many individuals who have come into this time period from the future, coming back into the past via the incarnational cycle so as not to violate free will, have carefully selected bodies with particular DNA, which they are, little by little, activating so that there 4th density selves, or higher, can manifest in this reality. Is it possible for those energies tomanifest into such bodies which have been awakened or tuned in 3rd density?
A: STO tends to do the process within the natural flow of things. STS seeks to alter creation processes to fit their ends.
29 July 2006 said:Q: (J) Over 11 years ago you said that the Nazi master race idea was for the purposes of creating a breeding ground for the reintroduction of the Nephilim for total control of 3rd density prior to elevation to 4th, and that this failed. At the time Laura asked what their plan was now, and you said that you could not say because she would seek to reveal it leading to her destruction. So my question is, (with mirth) have we evolved to a high enough degree that we can know now?
A: You already figured it out
Q: (everyone looks to Joe as though he figured something out. Joe: well I didn’t really figure anything out, I was just thinking about it and decided that the new plan was to introduce the psychopaths in order to effect the total control of the planet along certain lines)
A: And “culling” the non-psychopaths.
...
Q: …(H) Do the Arabs carry the same anti-Nephilim thing that they said was in the Jews?
A: Many, yes.
Q: (H) Today, do populations outside of those Jewish and Arab communities carry it as well?
A: Many.
Q: (J) That’s all the decent people who can spot evil staring them in the face.
