"shocking new advisement", I see what you did there.

I know. Twice. Right?

Erm, isn't the whole point of Tasers to protect you when the person is attacking you? So why would you ever need to Tase them in the back???

I like how the junk is still an acceptable target area. Keep it classy, Taser.

@Stu

The cops always Tase people in the back. Mostly it's when there are 3 or 4 cops on top of the suspect. Think about the "don't Tase me bro" kid. How many cops were on top of him when they finally went ahead and Tased him? 4 or 5 right?

@Stu - In the hands of a police officer, the taser's purpose is not protection, it is pacification.

"Lawyerly" is the term that comes to mind.

Lets just ban the taser all together. Let the cops go back to just beating the shit out of people with batons and fist.

Just wanted to point out the reporter's name that illustration of a crotch as a valid taser target. Carrie Cockburn.
