Default UK Police: Taser has "no severe or adverse reactions"
Obviously, teh deaths of those who dare to question teh police or not speak English don't count.

Shouldn't you take this as a sign that UK citizens are just that bad ass compared to citizens of the US and Canada that they can be tazed for fun and not suffer?

People in the UK don't have to worry about police brutality. According to this documentary movie I watched called "V for Vendetta", an anarchist vigilante in a mask will come along to save you.

who knows how sticking your tongue out might be interpreted...

They tasered one of the terrorists who failed tried and failed to bomb London a couple of years ago, the alternative was shooting him.

I think on balance the Taser is a better option
