    WTF? How else should they be using them??? Of couse you should be using them in hiding... be stuffed if I want to pay for you to sit out where the whole world can see you... if I'm paying you to catch people speeding, then you might as well be doing the best job of catching them you can! Same reason why marked cars on traffic duty is a waste of time... I want unmarked cars catching people doing stupid shit, not marked cars that people act 'normal' past and thendo stupid shit.

    Personally I reckon we need to ban tazers, and CS spray, and batons, the whole 9 yards.. Give every cop a glock and no other weapons and watch the crime rate plummet, not to mention the reduced bill for prisoners

    Thumbs up

    Is this shocking thread going anywhere? Or is it 'on the loose' like those needing the Tazer treatment?

    When you take thousands of photos of your bike does the light from the flash weaken the plastic?

    Pure gold! But then watch those tree huggers bitch and moan how there aren't any Tazers, spray or batons that could have subdued the nice "P" head easier...

    I strongly believe that every cop (except traffic) should be armed after 2 years front line service. In addition, outstanding citizens such as myself should be able to carry outside the designated route from home to the range.

    I don't live in fear but nothing finishes off a good night like a kill. Degenerates need to die more often.

    You been watching zombie movies again? After the first time I thought that was it.... doesn't dead mean gone?

    Na - arm the cops with tazers and hold them responsible for their use each and every time... No big deal. The problem I have with cops carrying guns is the arms race it contributes to so the bad guys are expected to match or betyter the firearms on the street.

    Pepper spray and tazers... no worries... when accountability is thrown into the mix.

    Kevlar is a proprietary name for Poly Aramid fibre.
    It is a very good insulator.
    Carbon fibre is a totally different material

    A very good thing that they were not armed with a Glock!
    They are definately better off than the cops that have shot themselves with the Glock

    I guess the next logical step, if the Tazer doesn't work due to insulation, will be... Ummm...

    To paraphrase the gun-happy proponents of the NRA, tazer them all and let A&E sort them out...

    Personally, I'm building a suit out of metallic foil to act as a faraday cage - INVINCIBLE!

    Don't forget to factor in the other costs. 15c bullet = eliminate the problem...

    Tazer = $75k p.a. for prison, + court costs + ....etc.

    Not that I'm suggesting one should shoot all lawbreakers, of course...!

    Shorai Powersports batteries are very trick!
