I see the do-gooders are at it again, apaerntly tazering is against peoples human rights and the police shouldnt use them because out of the millions of daily tazerings the US police dish out, one or two people have died from an unrelated problem.
The way I see it, when faced with a threat the police will deply a tazer where they may previously have used leathal force.
So it comes down to
Tazered, .000000001% you might die
Shot 99.9% chance you WILL die
AFAIK if you put yourself ina position to need tazering you deserve it anyhow, and i've survived 45Kv shocks at heaftier currents than that.
So, Yes or no?
-
YES !!!
Tazer the do-gooders 1st !!
offenders should be given one chance to comply with the police when asked to, if they don't tazer them then continue questioning when they come round :twisted:

The Chief Constable of North Wales Brundstrom (http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=48518) was tasered as a demonstration, & another Chief Constable has also been filmed in the same situation.
If they're willing to go through it, why not issue them??
But, can we have them in A&E too ple-e-a-a-se?

Best bit of kit we have!!! :wink:

why not put tazers in the counters at HMV? anyone who picks up anything from a big brother celebrity ...

Surely you have Drs that can override the saftey on the AEDs?
We blew onw up that was due for scrapping seeing if you can cook with them - you can! Emptied 4 battery packed into one burger.
You can also put a paddle on the deck, other on the body of the ambulance and zap anyone leaning on it.

I give it a big thumbs up, but perhaps a bit more voltage to go with it! Lets face it, if the Police are prepared to use it on you, i guess you probably deserve it! Every officer that wants to carry one should be allowed to! May have saved some needless deaths of officers in the last few years!

Yes, but a qualified yes, only if we 'the people' may have arms suitable for our defence as well. The arms race between the criminals and police leaves the public ever more vunerable. And saying call the police just doesn't wash anymore.

I will refrain from any kind of comment on this matter, apart from 'cattle prods' :shock:

'cattle prods' :shock:
Just as as good, Im sure they could be put to fantastic use sorting drunken yobs out in the evening :wink: :wink:

Totally agree with you there DG. Humiliation would work. They wouldn't like quite so tough then.

There's a set not too far from me, we could put them on the (raised) Cathedral walls every Saturday afternoon & have a 'scrote an hour' in them.

Taser - YES
Armed - DEFINITELY
Shoot to kill - WHY NOT, anything else would be a waste of all that training
If a person is close enough to be tasered then the probability of them commiting the alleged crime is high enough to shoot them and remove them from society and the gene pool
-
tazers are 8) 8) 8)
I also think the police should have special ram cars to hit joyriders headon and not get hurt :twisted:
or the ones they have in the state with a graber on the front ,they ram the car from the back then stick the brakes on :twisted: :twisted:
-
Absolutley, shame I cant buy one :twisted:
My father's got the best idea, bring back national service, old style that is, not the cr(rubbish) that they put on the tv
The actual training methods used in the 50's and 60's

Big YES to tazers,
my better half is a copper and i know i will sleep better at night knowing she is packing heat, rather than a can of police issue hairspray. The criminal element have the justice system on there side, why not give the police the tools they need to do there job and LET them do there job. Nuff said :smack:
-
Id say yes.
For me, if you are asked to stop by the police, or desist from your current actions and you refuse, then you lose your human/civil rights.
If the outcome then is that you get tasered,shot,beat up , then its your fault, and no reason to bleat about it.
Personally, if Im requested to stop, I stop. They ask questions, you answer them, if you were being a bad boy mebbe you get nicked, mebbe you dont, then you go. Its simple.
If I ran, I wouldnt be surprised if bad things started to happen. Id deserve it.
Tasers, definitely. Gas sprays, definitely.Guns(in moderation)

Sounds like you'd enjoy reading David Copperfield (http://coppersblog.blogspot.com) then? :lol:

No such thing... or rather... there is no distinction between shoot to kill and anything else... every time a trained firearm user (police, army etc) pull the trigger they are aiming at the "Centre of Mass" generally about the sternum or belly. That way it maximises the chance of a hit.
Deliberately shooting someone in arm, leg, or head is for Hollywood or "Coup de Grace" in SAS assault.

I used to think this was a good 'weapon of choice', but apparently is 'not correct for British Police' use.

Who says it's not appropriate??
The Government?, ACPO?, or a group like 'Liberty'
it's a good bet that the Police Federation, the 'bobbies on the beat', etc..... haven't been consulted??

these are excellent- we use them at work to cure hang overs. they really would be the dogs nuts on a friday night scuffle in most city centres. so funny to see chavs wondering around with there noses bleeding! appart from that it really is about time we armed the police with anything it takes for them to do there job and sod the bleeding hearts. go the northern irish route and put the army on the streets (obviously after getting them back from whatever sand pit the government has sent them to).
just my two pence anyway. :twisted:

YES! YES! YES!
I'm interested to see that at the time of posting, seven people voted No. Your comments please???
