I am still waiting for the research that support your claim that tasers are safe on SIX-YEAR OLDS! Doan I thought he already posted that information. Something about someone doing tests on six year old pigs? A six year old pig is about equivalent to an 80 year old man. Pigs have rather short lives, generally. The ones used for experiment are not only specially bred, like all lab animals, with characteristics that would figure in the testing, but they are virus free born....they are taken with the womb, placenta, and all, still intact out of the mother pig, and the entire bundle of piglets are passed from the piggie OR through a vat of disinfectent that has a passthrough into a sterile room. There they are removed from the womb Oh yes. Mother pig makes her next stop at the dog and cat food plant, since dead pigs coming in the door cannot be slaughtered for human consumption. I'm always charmed when self important little ignoramouses pop up an spout off. Even the much pampered and well cared for Pot-bellied pet pig has a lifespan about that of a dog or cat. " Life Span: I feel that the life span of these pigs is not what we assumed in the beginning. It is closer to the truth that they will have a productive life that equals the life span of the well cared for dog. This would make it between ten and fifteen years. " So a six year old pig (and the pigs used for experiment are usually not, unless there is a longevity study underway, bred for long life) of the kind used is probably very old at that age. You'd want a 3 to 5 week old to hit the equivalent of a six year old boy. Typical domestic pigs used (they are bred from the orginal Chester White stock...and I do not know the current name, though one acronym once common was PFP, Pneumonrhinitis Free Porcine--that's the special clean room birthing thing, not the breed.) It's been a long time since I dealt with livestock and veterinary medicine. By the way, the experiments are a waste of money. A great deal of useful and solid research is done by reviewing records and publications and prior reports. There are 100,000 plus recorded incidences of the use of tasers on willing and unwilling subjects. More than enough for a good statistical analysis. Cop records of the disposition of perps tends to be reliable. "After tasing the suspect, and finding him unresponsive we trasported to hospital via ambulance. I accompanied. Suspect came too in the ambulance and requied only treatment for mild systemic shock. Attendants said his circulatory hypo tension was temporary and when we arrived at the jail he was lucid, responsive, and walked under his own power to check it." Or "he was dead as a mackrel and autopsy report follows, see attach #2." 100,000 recorded uses, Billy et al. That is an impressive group, with all manner of subjects, age, weight, health, size, substances present or absence, behaviors, all there. Many a researcher would give his left nut for such a group to study the reports on. Exactly, in fact, what showed already that Taser is far safer for all parties, including the person targetted that other forms of force. Yah got sucked into a PC nitwit's trap. The world is full of PC nitwits. Plenty of them running around looking for the next "gee ain't it awful." This one will calm down shortly, like most. Most cases now that "gee" are "awful" consist of misuse by police..just like had they used a gun, or club, or Capsicum, inappropriatedly. One death, they shot the guy 17 times...obviously using more than one gun. And the report still hasn't determined if the Taser was the cause of death. Course you can ad hom babble instead of looking at facts, but that just shows you to be an ass. Billy |

My comments from another thread on Taser:
Enjoy; From: - Find messages by this author Date: 3 Apr 2005 00:02:05 -0800 Local: Sun, Apr 3 2005 12:02 am Subject: taser deaths Reply | Reply to Author | Forward | Print | View Thread | Show original | Remove | Report Abuse There were 103 Taser stun gun-related deaths in the United States and Canada between June 2001 and March 2005, according to an Amnesty International report released Friday. Really? Amnesty International you say? Hmmm...my oh my, this is getting serious if AI reported these. No bias there, nosiree. Greegor the facts, if you'd bother research them, are that Taser is NOT a stun gun, though it can be used as one in a pinch. It is a aerial flight electro shocking device. And stun guns themselves have been in use, both by police and civilians for years and years and have an outstanding record of not being directly related to deaths. A death that happens in conjunction with use of a stun gun or taser, may or may not be directly related to that use. The males victims where mosty wearing belts, and the male victims were mostly resisting arrest, and the male victims were mostly involved with other things that drastically changed their physiology, like drugs and alcohol. Cops have some choices of weaponry to use, and among those choices some are deadly by intent, the deadly in deadly force usually means a firearm, though in military terms there are other deadly weapons. In this context, a cop can tase, can club, can mace, can grapple, and can shoot with a gun. They are expected to chose the least force possible to stop the attacker or the one resisting. In all those cases listing, plus all those that did NOT result in injury or death, some 100,000 or so I believe I read, the cops chose not to use any other of the force available to them, ALL of which, have a record of injury and or death rates MUCH higher than taser so far. Per use, taser has proven to be effective and non lethal far more than other means. Frankly of all the choices a cop has, where I the suspect fighting them, the one I would chose, if I could, would be the taser. I've been hit with a heavy jolt from pretty hefty sources...animal stock prods...and I've been shot. And I've been gassed. I've been hit with clubs, and I've grabbled with people far larger than me or more of them than me, and taser would be my preference, personally, with a mind to survival with the least injury. I am accustomed, but feel just as you do, pain. I am accustomed to accepting pain, if it also means I have less chance of later long term injury or death. I would NOT like to be shot again. I would not like to be clubbed again. I would not chose to be grappled with by superior forces. The currently available data, not your biased propaganda driven 103 taser related deaths, is my critera. I don't care if it's 1,003, or 10,003, as long as the total number of uses vs death continues to be the very low ratio it is compared to OTHER MEANS the police have at their disposal. They even have used them on six year olds without harm to the child. I'm much older, but probably have a far more sturdy system than a six year old. They'd play hell trying to kill me with a taser. I'd likely wear out a few off their 9 volt batteries (yes, that is what produces the charge, a nine volt battery, with the charge being as low as 1 to ..03 joules..which is nothing compared to heart stimulant paddles at around 3.0+ joules as I recall. And yah gotta work a bit to kill someone with those.). You are aware, I presume and am having to stretch some to give yah that, that no force police use is without risk of injury and death, right? To stop me or you they must use force of some kind. The question is how much of what kind for the situation at hand. If I have a gun in hand, that makes the cops choice hard but fast. They best draw and fire NOW. They know that. I know that. So I wouldn't have a gun in hand. How about a knife? Hmm....tougher. Do I look drunk or sober, can I focuse well or poorly, and most important....how close am I and am I threatening by voice or movement. If I'm within 21 feet, the gun is the proper tool if I am threatening and appear to have the capacity, because I can cover that 21 feet in under three seconds and get a cut or stab in on the officer that can easily be fatal. He needs to draw and fire now, center of mass to stop me if he can. But wait. There are two solutions available. One has a very serious problem with it. Contrary to the movies, gunfire from a handgun RARELY, and I mean RARELY puts the target down and stops them quickly. It's on record that people have been shot rigth through heart, gone, no pumper, and the remaining blood was sufficient to keep the perp on his feet and still advancing and they killed the office with his gun in his hand still firing at the perp. But I did say two solutions. The other...ah the other has a very high percentage of instant stops, not only with no injury to the officer, but with a very low risk of death or injury to the perp. Much lower according to currently available data. The perp is rended incapacitated for a minute or so, time enough to cuff and secure him or her safely for all, including the perp. bobber, the PC crowd could be right. This weapon could possibly be lethal in some circumstance,...so are all currently used police weapons...even their flashlight. What they are NOT yet correct about is their outrageous speculations that start to look like butt covering, rather than simply not knowing as much as the data has shown us. You should read the opponents and what they say, then compare it to the claims you phonies a make about CPS and what they say. It's speculative butt covering. And the 103 deaths. Dig in to them and you find a large percentage are proven to death unrelated to the electrical shock, other causes entirely. And the remainder? Not one that I've heard, other than flapping noodle heads, so far that is directly traced to death by electrical shock. And even if you find ONE, what does that say about the weapon as compared to a gun, or club, or grappling, or mace, all of which have been directly the cause of deaths of perps, and bystanders. You heard of any innocent bystander deaths related to the use of taser yet? It's much easier to aim and control, and it can't be used beyond 25 feet. The officer would have to close his eyes, spin three times, run 10 yards, and with eyes still closed, fire, to hit an innocent bystander, and even then would have about zero chance of killing the bystander. This whole thing is a PC fiasco, yet another bit of PC CRAP...the very thing you have ****ed and moaned about, and see, you have got ME whining like you now, because you suddenly have jumped the fence to the PC CRAPPOLA side. For **** sakes man, either believe me and shut your stupid pie hole, or go get some data NOT PRODUCED BY THE PROPAGANDIST PC CROWD AND COME FIGHT LIKE A MAN. If we waited until we could prove that we can use electricity with the rate of safety the taser currently enjoys (there are deaths from the standard uses of electricity..trust me on this) guess what? My next line to you would be read in smoke from hilltop to hilltop. In most of the death incidences I could find there were misuse by police, as far as I could see, that would have had a high likelihood of fatality no matter what means of force they were using. Just read one, where they shot a guy 17 times with, obviously, multiple tasers weapons. He died. But even then there is some question taser was the direct cause of death. http://www.infowars.com/articles/ps/...death_rate.htm This is a more balanced article, that points up the lack of research..sadly an onother slight piece of PC nonsense. There are about 100k recorded uses of taser NONE of which resulted in serious injury or death to the subjects. Many were volunteers. And in fact there was a very extensive medical trials testing run on taser use. Did you know, for instance, that reports are coming in at greater and greater rates that perps, having become familiar with the taser, some by prior experience 0:-, upon seeing an officer draw the taser, simply stop and comply? The very thing cops most desire, and I as a citizen desire. I don't want cops shooting or clubing people, both of which have a higher incidence of serious permanent injury, or death. I want them to stop the perp with the least possibility of either, and so far, after 100,000 uses, that seems to be holding true. Don't you think it a bit ridiculous for the PC types to fidget and natter that there isn't sufficient scientific inquiry, and animal studies are underway, when there is documented use on HUMAN SUBJECTS, at 100,000 actual live uses of taser on them to study for scientific conclusions? Must research is done exactly that way...a survey of the existing material, books, articles, other studies, and here we have 100,000 of the them, easily gathered. http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/st...TORY=/www/stor... http://tinyurl.com/6f5ky " TASER International has published safety charts comparing TASER output to standards published by Underwriter's Laboratories and similar agencies. The chart in question was developed by a government research contractor, Jaycor Inc. (now a subsidiary of the Titan Corporation) under funding by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the National Institute of Justice. The study evaluated stun device outputs against published standards indicating a significant safety margin for various devices, including TASER devices. Medical experts and recent independent reports from the Canadian Government, the U.S. Department of Defense and the United Kingdom support that TASER devices are among the lowest-risk alternatives available to law enforcement to subdue violent individuals who could harm law enforcement officers, innocent citizens or themselves. " And please, no crap about this coming from the manufacturers "so it has to be a lie"...they offered independed government sources. Not THEIR research. And they used, in manufacture, UL listed standards for safety. Secondly the are as aware as you or I of the danger of giving false information and being sued for it, and they KNOW that like any weapon there is a high potential of misuse. So they KNOW they are going to get sued. So they'd be fools to lie about their data and sources. bobber, I want guns and clubs in the hands of police to be the last resource. Have you ever heard me use the term, "The fix is in?" Well, bobber, on taser, the fix is in...it's today's popular target of the PC nutsos. Did you know that Mace was once treated exactly the same? Kind of faded away under the weight of actual facts. Just like this will. Remember, little kids have been hit with the taser, and no injuries resulted. Even a drunk 12 year old. Get your data straight. Then come back and argue, or be a man and stand up for the facts instead of the PC propaganda you are all too ready, at times, to swallow. But now and then you've shown you are paying attention, can read and understand, and you know someone is conning you. This time, a lot of people are conning the public about the relative danger of the taser. Or are yah just another fuggering' mindless servile twit? (sorry, had to get that in. I guess I'm just a baaaaaad boy.) Kane |

Here's this guy who is obsessed with ending
any and all forms of spanking of children, but he's defending the use of TASERS on kids! Doesn't it make you wonder if he doesn't own a whole lot of STOCK in the TASER industry? What else makes Kane so "invested" in the pro-taser crusade? |
