Many years ago before all the anti-gun, PC patrol, Brady bunch and litigation wave...
My Aunt in a certain town in TX was juror. Seems the store owner tired of being beaten, robbed and having himself and family threatened with death from last robbery of his liquor store, Rigged up a dbl bbl shotgun with 00 , the register was in the back Vee corner --behind the 'drape" was the shotty. Sure enough the BG came in and said it was time to die...figured owner had given description to police. Owner raised hands in submision, cords tripped triggers, BG in pcs.
Owner found not guilty, "in fear of life owner had a right to defend himself, the fact he used cords to trip shotgun was due to injuries sustained in prior beating, being disabled he simply had to adapt to protect himself".
yep prefer real bullets over stun guns anyday myself

Seems to me that people are already getting hurt. As long as I have a choice, I would prefer that the robbers be the ones that got hurt. Around here, I doubt that the taser terminals would penetrate the multiple layers of clothing the bad guys would be wearing because of the cold. Now you would have a ticked off robber as well. Let the employees arm themselves!
