Why are cops going crazy with the taser these days?

Posted By admin

Lostfan asked:

I mean we’ve had numerous deaths already, and i’ve seen it used on people for nothing more than acting silly while drunk to the cops.

Are cops given too much lee-way when it comes to the taser?

BTW, i am aware that an officer needs to complete a training program which includes being tasered themselves to be able to weild a taser.

Self Defense?

Posted By admin

River asked:

I am a self defense instructor for the agency that I work for. I have been asked to teach self defense to a local sorority. Should I teach them some of lethal blows I instruct with my fellow deputies, or keep it pretty basic. They have had a stalker in the area lately.
I have already decided to include pressure points, the brachial plexus spots and the psychology of self defense. I am just curious. This is one of my first classes that is not full of certified peace officers and military personel.
In referense to “Dave” -

We need self defense as law enforcement officers, becasue sometimes all we can rely on is hand to hand defense. There are times that we are critisized for using our weapon. If someone attacks us or goes for our weapon, we have the right to use any force necessary to get full control back. 87% of all officers shot in the line of duty are killed by their own weapon. Self defense as a deputy is as essential as our handcuffs.

Will using a taser on a dog kill it? Can a taser immobilise a rabied rottweiler?

Posted By admin

Sisyphus asked:

I’m in a country where stray dogs roam the streets and get aggressive at times. In rural areas I can’t even get a rabies shot if I’m bitten. I want to immobilise aggressive dogs if they start following me. Is a taser the best way to immobilise them with little risk to myself, and will it work?
