“Physically and emotionally, they respond very differently than adults to stress, trauma, and physical assaults,” the report said. “Unfortunately, law enforcement in this country frequently fails to recognize that young people require an entirely different set of tools and strategies during encounters and interactions than adults.”

Strategies for Youth sounded the alarm before the Middletown Tasing. Its report rightly notes children are not “mini adults.” Many are dealing with stress, trauma and downright terror brought on by years of death, COVID isolation, masking, and vitriol over who gets the shot and who refuses it. Any wonder some may be acting out?

Storage of gas cylinders The HSE’s guidelines for secure gas bottle storage and handling includes the following: Store cylinders shall be in open-air or well-ventilated areas on a concrete or load-bearing surface. Ensure careful handling and a suitable separation distance between LPG or propane cylinders from compressed gas cylinders and those containing flammable liquids, gases, or combustible, corrosive, oxidising, or toxic materials. Practise secure handling by ensuring that no stack may exceed 30,000kg. For indoor repository, store no more than 5,000kg in designated compartments. A maximum of five compartments are allowed in a single building. Chlorine cylinders shall be stored in a gas bottle storage cabinet that contains leaks and protects the containers from radiant heat hazards. A chlorine gas bottle storage cabinet must have at least a 20 metre distance from a site boundary and five metres from any roadway. Always get an approved gas cylinder cabinet. A drum store must be 60 metres from a site boundary. We offer a full range of high-quality Chemical Handling & Storage methods to suit different working environments.

Wherever possible, cylinders shall be stored in the open air to prevent any vapours from building to dangerous levels. If this cannot be done, your cylinder storage area should always be well ventilated. When selecting a place to store cylinders you should bear the following in mind: Other Hazards - Cylinders shall not be stored near any other hazardous materials/substances to prevent cross-contamination or a risk which could result in the products toppling over, should an accident happen Traffic Routes – Keep cylinders away from areas where vehicles regularly travel to avoid accidental impact damage Heat Sources – Any external source of heat can compromise the structural integrity of a cylinder making it potentially dangerous to handle Flammability and Ignition – Flammable gas cylinders should be stored away from any part of a building that is utilised for other tasks and ignition sources such as forklift trucks must be kept away Access – Ensure staff can get in and out of the storage area with ease and never block entrances or emergency exits If you do place your cylinder storage outdoors, facilities must be lockable and the potential for vandalism needs to be taken into account.

Being shot with a stun gun can have serious, if not fatal, consequences for children. According to the recent report “Stunned for Life: the Use and Abuse of Tasers on Children and Youth” conducted by Strategies for Youth (SFY), police are frequently using TASERS on youth suffering emotional or mental health distress. And mental health professionals have warned we are in the middle of a mental health crisis that is profoundly impacting children. Why would we have police officers pulling out their Tasers instead of psychologists helping them work through their fears and anxieties?

The video raises a lot of questions about why the officer felt he needed to use his stun gun on the child. The boy didn’t have a weapon in his hand. He wasn’t threatening anyone. The police officer didn’t chase him around the school; the boy wasn’t running. He was simply walking away.

The interaction between the police officer and Middletown High School student represents a failure we should take seriously. No kid should get Tased in the school cafeteria. Our kids are suffering, mentally, if not physically. They need the help of trained mental health professionals who know how to respond when they have the inevitable meltdown.
