    Good morning/ afternoon guys and Mr. Tobin. My topic today is “Should Victoria police carry Taser guns?” On March 18, 2012, Brazilian student Roberto Curti tragically died in Sydney. He had stolen only two packets of biscuits and as a result, he was chased by 6 police officers. They fired Tasers at him 14 times each delivering a charge up to 50,000 volts to his body, more than enough to stop his heart from beating.
