Yes.So allowing them to torture uppidity people and women is the solution?
You would give police two options for dealing with resisting suspects:Police are far to prone to over react when given things like tasers and even pepper sprays.
Torture devices must and will be banned sooner or later, they are barbaric.
(LOL. Wrong hair color.) I wonder how long that show lasted? It's looks pretty goofy.Who else but...So, I have wondered what sort of personality would be attracted to being a LEO.

BTW, you remind me of Heather Locklear...
Isn't that the case everywhere?The supply of teens exceeds even the parents demand for them.

1. Wrestling them with their bare hands.
2. Shooting them.
Option #1 is very dangerous, especially if the suspect has a knife or gun, while option #2 is overkill against someone throwing punches.
I'd much prefer officers had more options:
1. Wrestling them with their bare hands.
2. Fighting them with batons (so-called torture).
3. Tasering them (so-called torture).
4. Shooting them.
Anyone who drives recklessly should be treated like a mass murderer anyway, they are putting other people's lives in danger. If you don't like the laws, vote to fucking change them or get the hell out of the country.

isnt changing the laws. exactly what we are debating? Do you want us to leave BEFORE we get a chance to change the laws?
I have great respect for cops. It's a profession that has never appealed to me, though. So, I have wondered what sort of personality would be attracted to being a LEO. I'm only going on a hypothesis with no data at all to back it up, so it's nothing of substance. I wonder if the profession attracts the more authoritarian natured personalities. If so, it would seem to me that those types would have their buttons pushed by anyone questioning that authority.
Again, I have great respect for them as they are doing a job all of us depend on and they're doing something I would not want to do. So, I'm bouncing a thought out there.
Lessons to be Learned:
1. Don't argue with the police, just follow instructions.
2. Don't attempt to flee from the police.
3. Don't assault the police.
4. Follow the above rules at all times, but especially when they have a taser or firearm in your face.
Pretty simple lessons...amazing how many people never learn them. Also, realize that if you take away the tasers, police will be pulling their pistols instead.
A taser is far less damaging than a 9mm.
That said, it would appear some departments could benefit from sensitivity training...

Allowing police to torture people is wrong and never justified.
Numbnuts, it isn't torture, any more than handcuffs are torture. If you can't tell the difference then you're really fucking stupid, as though you hadn't demonstrated that to begin with.No asshole, i am anti-torture, and anti-gestapo, allowing the stasi to use torture devices is nazi-like.A taser is not a 'tool' it is a torture device.
It inflicts pain on people to compell them to do what they order. THAT is the definition of a torture device.
It is NEVER 'warrented' and there are literally dozens of film proof that it is misused.
There is ZERO JUSTIFACTION for giving the police the ability to torture people that have not even been arrested.
Geez are you fucking stupid.
Handcuffs also compel people to do things. Handcuff also hurt. I guess handcuffs ought to be labeled a torture device and banned as well.
Some people could do with a few hundred volts to the scrotum.
The LEOs around here must go through training in their use before they are issued one. That training includes getting tazed.Tasers are torture devices, there can be no moral justifaction for them.
They are designed soley to inflict pain and used often with poor judgement by law enforcement at the slightest provocation as hundreds of videos have shown.
Every cop that has ever used one should have it used on them, then this shit would stop.
I'm not against tasers, but I am concerned about how easily the popo seems willing to use it. The above videos demonstrate the need for some serious reforms in the way they're used
I don't count myself a liberal, as should be apparent from (an unbiased) reading of my posts, but to answer the central question:Would the libs prefer that I use this over the tazer?

If that type baton is shown safer for the target under typical usage conditions then yes the police should use it instead of a tazer.
I do find it ironic that a police officer has an avatar with the hammer an sickle of communism. Though as another poster suggested, I suppose totalitarianism appeals to police. In fact is makes a certain amount of sense that Police support a Police State.
