.....or cops could just refrain from physically punishing people all together. They should go back to the "chicken wing" method or point their pistol at someone as a last resort.
As we have seen, many times the tasers get used on innocent people who are being non-compliant or annoying. If you go into the "This is bull" cop abuse thread, you will see plenty of examples of tasers being used on the elderly, children, mentally handicapped etc. That is flat out abuse.
The tasers are being abused because cops rely on the fact that they are "non-lethal" equipment, and I think they should be abolished.
