    Hello.

    Yes I also do not know if NYC cops carry teargas, but they did prior to the taser, and the taser can be easily foiled.
    To outwit the tear gas you need a gas mask or be totally blitzed.
    The argument that the taser is 100% effective is now 100% wrong.

    The manufacturer wants police to believe its 100% effective. Conductive clothing, quick removal of the electrode "darts" can render it ineffective. But, another false claim by the manufacturer is the claim of it being a "non-lethal" weapon. Numerous cases have proved otherwise.

    "Less lethal" is perhaps more accurate. In any case, if I absolutely had to get shot with something, better a Taser than a .40 S&W.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    And what a choice !! The sad part is that it seems that such choices are becoming more and more commonplace in our free society. "Tazed or Shot ?... which shall it be ?". Would I be considered a wise guy if I said "neither" and instead opt for a routine headbust ? LOL.. Under those circumstances I'b probably get both... a tazing and a headbust.

    And then shot because you didn't bleed good enough.

    maybe... but in some cases plungers in ancient NYC police station bathrooms can cause significant bleeding... Especially when used in ways no tongue can tell...hey ho my back door.
