Tasers Kill

Rogueregime sent me this link to Electronic Village documenting 36 taser-related deaths in 2009. That's far more than I suspected.

I repeat my position: the taser is an excellent less-lethal weapon, an alternative to lethal force. The taser is not acceptable as a "less-than lethal" weapon because it, well, kills.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
