    Taser/Lethal force question

    You missed my original point.. If you cannot be bothered to read earlier posts then that is your problem, I will not reiterate for you. My original question to SHvar and has still not yet been answered. You on the other hand have been pretty belligerent throughout. I do not need to prove squat...

    Taser/Lethal force question

    I'm sorry if it bothers you that I trust my (albeit undergrad) studies in Physics, EE, and Biology to your repeated factoids. I know what I trust and I know my sources. BTW, I have to ask Are you an employee of Taser? because you certainly do sound like one.

    Taser/Lethal force question

    The point was an illustration. You can say Taser has never lost a wrongful death suit. Good for them. I wouldn't argue that at all.It still does not prove the device has never killed someone. Only that taser has never lost a suit. The burden goes both ways. You make an absolute statement like NO...

    Rights vs Privileges

    If you look at the etymology of the words, Privilege in Latin meant Rule or law for one. It was a law that only SOME were able to enjoy. as for the word Right, if you look at the old English, it was something that was correct, just, proper, As it should be... etc; I see the the bill of...

    Concealed carry at a gun show?

    Truth is, the sign is there largely for insurance purposes. In some states the sign holds little if any legal value (in regards to CC ONLY.... you pull it out you are in violation of CC and now are in violation of the rule....). In some states it is completely valid and even if you do not...

    23 State Attorneys General To Attorney General Holder: "No Semi-Auto Ban"

    Not that I want to be the cynic in the back,..... but will this make any difference? I hope it does, I'm just not holding my breath. :uhoh: (I am writing a HUGE thank-you note to my states AG! Good on him!) :cool:

    Taser/Lethal force question

    You still do not cite your source. Hence I must assume you know everyone on the planet or you're just regurgitating. I'll illustrate, a fellow died as a result of a taser here in my home town just last week. It was proven to be the taser by the by. The only question being asked is if the cop was...

    The “Reciprocal Conceal Carry” Act. S. 845

    Once you let the feds in, they have more say. You give them more say and you are subject to their capricious nature to a greater degree. Don't let the camel in the tent!

    Gun Laws in Utah

    This is the code that is often cited for no one under 21 owning a handgun. This may well be where she got her info. The thing is, it only stipulates BUYING from a LICENSED dealer (an FFL). I have always been told that you have to be 21 in the state of Utah to own a handgun. However all of the...

    My first big day!

    Welcome to our "secret society". ;) The only words I have to offer I stole from Duke of Doubt: :D Just don't forget the real weapon is between your ears.

    Taser/Lethal force question

    A very valid point, but the Taser should not be looked upon as a replacement for the more lethal gun either. There have been several posts in this thread that imply Tasers have never contributed to the death of someone. One post even came right out and said it was proven without siting the...

    When Are You Justified in Using Deadly Force Against an Unarmed Assailant?

    depends on ALOT of factors. It will be different for each person. I'm 6'2" and weigh close to 200lbs. A man coming at me swinging may not have the same threatening presence to me as to say a woman who is 5'3" and weighs 102lbs in a soaked wool sweater. Also number of assailants is a factor. The...

    Castle Doctrine

    Let me get this straight..... So as I understand it, NachosLibre was trolling about Castle Doctrine. (The truth is it varies from state to state within the states that have that particular political ideology. A nice broad question that has no definitive answer). He (or possibly she you never...

    Taser/Lethal force question

    I was told (I studied EE in College) that 33 volts at 1/10 of an amp (basically .3 watts) can be lethal if applied to the right area in the body.... namely the heart. That is enough to stop it cold. There are numerous factors both technical and physiological that make the tasers usable on...

    Taser/Lethal force question

    I am curious as to your source. That is an extremely broad and yet absolute statement. Where did you come across this piece of very telling information?
