It would be inappropriate to use tasers or water cannons for this. This police action does not require lethal action and both tasers and water cannons have proven to be that. So far, Linda Lingle's mistakes have only been with bad political decisions, although some would contest that constitutional infractions may be proven later. But, let's not turn this into government criminal actions, fatalities, and a terrible public relations fiasco for the state.

Aloha, Brad
