Tasers aren't all they're cracked up to be. A good friend of mine has a son who is a cop on Indianapolis' East Side (worst part of town). He has seen guys get tasered 3-5 times with ZERO effect because they were so hopped up on drugs, same thing with pepper spray. At that point, high-speed lead is a necessity.

My neighbor was on the swat team here in Memphis. He says even lead has a hard time stopping a hopped up crack head or speed freek. They can take many bullets & still keep firing back when they are wired to the hilt.

The elephant will die if you shoot it in the head.

About three people have died here after being tasered while high on Cocain. I can't remember if they linked the "Tasered while high" to the deaths. But the families raised enough ruckus to slow down Taser usa. I say we stop demanding so much of cops if we're gonna tie their hands.
