[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 232978, member: 84"] Knowing what a jolt of electricity can do in the human body, nope, I'm not at all comfortable with them using tasers to restrain anyone except in extreme conditions. Still iffy on that one. But do realize police have to been able to protect themselves. I don't think they should be used on anyone, for any reason, under the age of 18. Those brains are still in development, and I am not convinced that jolting them with electricity is such a brilliant idea. Star, I've been zapped by an electric fence. I've never repeated the mistake. OMG that hurt all the way to the bones. Been zapped my a darn outlet many times when I was a kid.... until I learn to keep my foot away from the metal register when plugging something in. Once I got zapped so bad it thru my heart into palpatations. I was about 10, no way did I have a heart condition. Think about it this way........Why do we invest in outlet covers to protect our kids from jolts of electricity..........And now we have tasers that might be used on kids. I'm with Star. I think the rubber bullets are better. They hurt like the devil when you're hit with one, but no lasting damage. [/QUOTE]
