It is hard to believe that their are people actually opposing this bill. Their opposition makes no sense whatsoever.

Tasers are used by police forces as a modern day "hickory shampoo". I don't see why any citizen would want to carry one.

With that said, it is a weapon. If a person should want to carry a taser instead of or in addition to a firearm, it is his God given right as (supposedly) protected by the second amendment of the US Constitution to do so.

Tasers are different from Stun Guns.

Tasers shoot, Stun Guns don’t. I want a stun gun for walking when big dogs are out.

Sure, the State will license you to conceal carry a .44 Magnum, but no, we won’t let you have a knife with a blade over 3” or a stun gun.

My rep and now my Senator Rick Smith introduced the bill a couple of years ago. He is the former Eaton County top cop so he knows what he is talking about. It got hung up a couple of years ago by the Dems. They wanted something in exchange for its passage. So much for the people

” Muskegon County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Jeff Blackmer said he wishes the state legislature would holster attempts to allow stun guns under the state’s concealed weapons law.”

Among other things, we need to start strongly reminding “law enforcement” that they work for us, not the other way ‘round. The whole notion of police agencies being given the only legal authority to “protect” is bogus. While I'm not an advocate of vigilantism, it's every citizens right to protect life, limb and property, and every law abridging those rights is invalid. Those rights are God Given, and inalienable.
It's sad that generations of “subjects” have been brainwashed into accepting government bullying.

PhotobucketI have a 2 million volt stun gun that my neighbor borrowed for his wife for a fellow worker who was harassing her and following her to her car asking for a date. One night as she was walking to her car, this as$ tried to grab her and she let him have it.... He was on the ground for 15 minutes twitching. When the police came, she said, the perp was still twitching. My neighbor went and bought 2 stun guns like mine. One her his wife and one for his 16 year old daughter.

If it's legal to keep and bear a Taser as well as a handgun, “they” will start asking why you shot your assailant to death when you could have just Tased him.

Another lib who believes the little people are just too stupid to be trusted with their own decisions and well-being. What a surprise.

Citizens should have the same access to weapons that cops do.

Stun guns? That only means more criminals will live another day to attack someone else.

“People might treat (stun guns) like toys and they’re dangerous. There is an awful lot of power,” he said.

*****************************************************

When cops handle tasers against us they treat them as if they were toys and downplay any possible harm ,, F’Em..
