Reply #5: Sigh...I've been tased...good tool in hands of the responsible.. [View All]

I'm not a shill for the company that produces the main taser used by law enforcement, but have been told that out of all the lawsuits filed so far, not one suit has been successful.

With that, one thing people who scream about the use of taser refuse to acknowledge is the complexity of the human body. In addition, these people also refuse to acknowledge the prior health and condition of the person being tased. They ignore if the person has been using drugs or other substances and how most people who have died have been doing just that.

Take the man who died in the airport. From the little part I have read, it does not appear the tasing killed the man, but instead compression of his neck.

And with all things, tools used are only as good as the hands they are being used in.

Also, I've been tased and would rather be tased than hit in the head with a nightstick, sap or sprayed with pepper spray.

And it's not the volts that are important. Not an electrician, but volts aren't the important factor. It's amperes.
