except because of that perception (from advertising and lies by taser) police deploy them at the drop of a hat when deadly force wouldn't otherwise be used.
They are not non-lethal, just "less lethal with an arm of taser lawyers/doctors who will justify any deaths that occur and get it labeled excited delirium a made up condition"
