  • Genuine question, how accurate are Tazers? If the partner was in a headlock, was there any risk of tazering the wrong person while the gum was more accurate?

    Speaking independently of the story- Not very by comparison to firearms. Something like 50% less accurate. There’s also the issue that tasers will not always incapacitate someone. That’s a gamble if someone has a weapon and the range to use it.

    Part of the rationale in using a firearm is the need to body someone before they can use a weapon where non lethal methods are just not as effective.

    Of course, when you investigate yourself you will always find that you used your firearm in the appropriate situational context.




  • Do they? I just moved back to the rural area I grew up in after spending ten years in Cleveland.

    Cleveland’s not the greatest, but there’s dick around here outside of Walmart. I can drive 30 minutes into the nearest small city if I need a Home Depot or something, but Cleveland had tons of choices by comparison. Not a ton of restaurants, most are same ish or eaten up by Applebee’s. Fast food is even pretty limited.

    Back in the day we had small shops, but most are dead now…
