> So I guess I’ll have to buy and carry around 8 or 10 Tasers in case I’m attacked by a gang. Going to have to purchase a whole bunch more holsters. And get about 6 more arms attached...

Last week it was reported in the NZ Herald that our cops are lobbying for some new Taser technology. Apparently it is fired from an ordinary shot-gun, and the slug carries all it needs to deliver a nasty, wireless jolt.

(Presumably it somehow builds and carries a charge with an onboard capacitor or something...?)

That sort of technology has a certain amount of appeal to me. Being to tase a gang of, say, 10 scroats with a pump-action shotgun loaded with taser shells sounds like the Cat’s A$$!

Have you lot heard much of this technology? Is it for real?
