Seems odd that their advertising is “with the rise of consumer tasers used for home defense...” who exactly are their intended customers? Home invaders?
Also is it really smart to take away the police’s nonlethal tools in a premeditated fashion? Do you think it’s going to help your family’s wrongful death suit when your body is wrapped up in anti-taser gear?
- moftz 7y agoSeems like they could be suggesting that Tasers are going to become the new saturday night special, a cheap tool to incapacitate someone. Conductive clothing is cheaper and I'm sure hurts a lot less than body armor stopping a bullet.
- lph 7y agoTheir intended customers are probably tacticool bros who want to spiff up their LEO LARPing.
- mirimir 7y ago> who exactly are their intended customers? Home invaders? Sure. That is, SWAT teams.
- kbenson 7y agoIn that case, it's probably even a better idea. If the choice is a SWAT officer being somewhat immune to or being fully affected by a current strong enough to affect muscles, I would rather they be immune to whatever degree they can be, just because those muscles are probably in control of an automatic weapon. That doesn't really help that the SWAT team probably shouldn't even be there 99% of the time, but I'll still take any small wins that are offered.
