Toronto Const. Christopher Hominuk makes George Bush proud

Sort of crap you usually read about associated with some repressive regiem a half a planet away...and recently Americans.

A Toronto police officer is to be sentenced in June after threatening two men with a Taser.

Reports say Const. Christopher Hominuk pleaded guilty to one count of threatening bodily harm.

In-car video entered as an exhibit in the trial shows an officer using the weapon to try to extract information from the men.

The men were being detained while officers investigated a theft in west-end Toronto last May.

The video shows an officer holding a Taser to a handcuffed man's neck in the back of a police cruiser, then threatening to Taser the genitals of a second man in another cruiser.

Court was told neither man was actually Tasered.

The only difference is, here in the U.S. they would have both been tasered and one would have died.

There would be an investigation BY THE POLICEMAN'S OWN DEPARTMENT and exonerated.
