But cops do need non-lethal alternatives when in situations with violent offenders and until something better comes up, tasering is basically better than using bullets.



why do they taser old women then? who have no weapon of any kind?



It is a requirement. All recruits must do that at least once to pass the academy. It is quite like when rhetoric students must make one sweeping generalization based on outliers to become political debaters.

so let me get this straight. the guy I was responding to said that taser is good against violent people because otherwise the police would have to shoot them.

he was making the argument that tasers are a nonlethal bullet replacement.

ok. fine.

but that's not a sufficient justification for tasers because tasers are used on nonviolent people who would never be shot by police.

where's your snippy answer to that you scum. (assuming you are scum. if youre not then disregard).

is that your answer to people who say, hey, why are you tasering nonviolent people, to ridicule them instead of answering them?
