Cops, get the message...quit using tasers.

...in favor of... what? Their .45s?

Tasers have a place in a good officer's tool set, but some cops misuse and abuse them.

How about "quit misusing tasers"? I like that better.

I agree but I do think way too many people end up dead when Tasers are used. It’s supposed to be non-lethal but clearly that is not the case. My prediction is they will be banned from use by LEO or civis.

Night sticks are mean but how many deaths have you read about from thier use. It seems like one a month from tasers, so to me it does not matter if the situation warranted the use of the device or not, suspects are ending up dead WAY to often.

Yes it is making sense and yes it is welcome here, he just wants to pretend that we are viciously anti police and that’s not the case.
