Cops's Gun vs Taser Shock

I just thought to make a thread. I want to know about Gun and Taser shock between. It's American's choice to use a gun or taser shock. Gun can cause die. I heard taser shock can cause die too. is that right? You can discuss about Gun and Taser Shock between here.

Less likely to die from a tazer shock. I would hope guns would be the absolute last resort of police officers.

I'm not really worried about using tasers instead of guns, but my bigger worry is the fact that more and more police officers are using tasers more often for things that they could have done without using a taser.

I highly highly highly support the use of Taser as the frontline defense weapon. The gun is always always the last resort because it is a deadly force and people will die.

**nodding agreement** It would appear that as they are less deadly, the officers are much quicker to use them, and are using them excessively. That is real reason for concern.

I guess the cops are getting lazy and think that using the taser is the solution to everything.

Either.....but remember, taser shock has a very, very limited range. I rather the cops to have the pepperbag guns than taser shock. More range than taser shock, of course.

But I'd say, let the cops to have it both. They will need the gun, they'll never know if a suspect is armed or not.

Why should the majority be weighed down by a bunch of crippled or defective people, anyway? They shouldn't be trying to getting into trouble anyway!

Is it sense to taser, shot or beat up unarmed pregnant women, senior people, children, teenagers and speed drivers accord videos in other threads because they ignored Police Officer´s order or try to say or ask them something? To me, no but unprofessional for use weapons to abuse unarmed people like that...

That worries me as well. I guess I'm already inclined to be afraid and distrusting of police officers in general, and maybe that affects how I feel, but it does scare me that it seems that "police brutality" seems to be on the rise.

Think of it this way...

They can waste 5 minutes wrestling with a guy in order to arrest him.

OR

They can just shoot a taser for 30 seconds. That gives them 4 and a half minutes of free time to stop by the local Krispy Kreme for some donuts.

A community helping a member to overcome temporary circumstances is a waste of time? I beg to differ.

We are, first and foremost, a community. When you believe that we are not, then you have no business participating. Just because you don't want the responsibility of a community that had borne you and conditioned you does not mean you can easily forsake your obligation unto them.

I wasn't implying that I think they're wasting their time trying to wrestle the guy down.

I was making a hypothetical theory of what might be in the minds of the police officers who prefer to use tasers instead.

but... it's the jobs that not many people wants to do it. they're very courageous to do it especially firemen and cops that would cost their lives someday. we should provide them with necessary equipments needed to effectively to subdue the offender quickly and harmlessly (as less as possible)

They have those means available. Obviously, they aren't using them properly.

The vast majority of cops and firemen retire from their jobs; they do not die in the act of doing their job.

Desire to become a law enforcement officer quite often has nothing to do with courage. Or a firefighter, either.
