Not really Suzanne, in fact they should make the tasers double as potent, in fact I think citizens should be armed if they are law abiding. The criminals have guns, so why should decent people just trying to avoid crime. The woman in question got hostile with an officer. She should have been polite and complied. If she had, she would have had a nice Christmas, so please don't try to justify criminal actions. The law is the law, and if an officer asks a question or tries to control a situation to maintain some semblance of dignity and order, people should comply or risk getting tasered, possibly clubbed or worse yet, shot! In this case the lady was at fault and put the officer, herself and others at risk! Have a great 2008...I will!

The Power To Write The Best!

i rather be tazed then hit with a bean bag. but i think mase (iron type) is the best. j/k nah but pepper spray should be used more often rather then a taser. a taser doens't hurt that much, depending on what body part. legs and arms it doenst hurt, just tenses up the muscles. but don't use it on the genitals. my friend did. couldn't pee right for a week. lol.

friends don't let friends taz their balls.

my friend is just dumb and too curious for his own good, but hell it's a free show for me, so i wasn't gonna stop him. lol

WOW, WHOA!!

Hey Suzanne, do you think the qualifications for being a TV reporter should be higher than for being a reporter in a smaller market? while the competition for jobs ought to bring the most talented reporters to the big cities, if you had to choose three reporters to fire from ch 11 news because you wanted to hire three better reporters, could you make a decision within 24 hours? what criteria would you use to make your decision. you cannot respond by ignoring the request so be fair and help us decide which three have to go. Your job is safe. Viewers like you.

I thought I was on another thread for a moment. Let's take it back to tasers!
I'm not against protection. I've taken self-defense classes & carry pepper spray... so watch out! kidding.. but carrying a taser seems more serious to me.
You can buy a taser without receiving training. Is that a good thing? Here in Cali, I've seen plenty of road rage & lots of people losing their patience in public. What if somebody were to go too far and tase someone because they were mad at them?
I could pose the same question with pepper spray, but I don't see them sold in flashy colors. I guess it makes me nervous because it seems tasing isn't taken that seriously. Like Samo, I know people who've been tased just to see how it feels. I don't hear about the same with pepper spray!
People chuckle a bit when talking about tasing, kind of like paintball guns. Paintballs can't stop your heart though.
Ok, I typed this quickly.. I'm heading out on a story... but thanks for everyone's opinions & holiday wishes!

btw, I'd rather be handcuffed than tased!
