Manchester Police Consider Wider Usage Of Tasers

Here is a story out of Manchester, England were two law enforcement officers were recently shot and killed. As you may know police officers in England are not armed so when they are faced with a suspect that is armed they are at a decided disadvantage. That is why they are setting up a working group to consider arming more police with tasers. You can read the rest of the details HERE "Last year there were 789 occasions when Tasers were authorised for use in Thames Valley. On only 13 of those occasions was the Taser fired. On 20 occasions, the suspect surrendered when the taser was drawn and aimed alone." Tasers are currently the premier nonlethal self-defense product used by over 17,000 law enforcement agencies in United States and in 11 foreign countries. The civilian version of a police taser is the C2 Taser shown here that was designed specifically for women. We value any feedback on these posts you may have. Let us know your thoughts.
