Tasers
Ok, the whole argument about tasers being inhumane is BS!
I got shot with one yesterday, and yes it was the WORST pain I have EVER been in, (mind you I have received 2nd and 3rd degree burns before and was on morphine
) but it sure as hell beats being shot by a .40 hollowpoint coming out of another officer's glock!

I've gotten electricuted so many times, I don't think 300,000 volts at 100 mA is really going to affect me.
I've made my own taser out of some capacitors and junk... and tested it on myself... it hurt for like a few seconds, but it didn't do crap to me.
It felt kinda cool afterward though...

Also, tasers should be harder for civilians to buy ... my friends are drunk redneck morons
. They were out tasering themselves one day

Maybe not harder, but I definitely don't want to be around one, haha!

electrocution means death by electric shock.
So you've been killed many times?

Don't get me started on how I acted after I got up... if I had the chance, the guy who told me it was de-energized would've been used as a new ground for that 480v line.

I'm not sure what hurt worse...the 277V or the sudden stop at the end of that 8ft fall.

. They were out tasering themselves one day .Tasers will always be easy to get or make. You know it takes about 8 minutes to make a pretty powerful taser out of a disposable camera?
Me and my friends made one and shocked a metal pole with it but it looked so painful that we didn't have the ***** to try it on ourselves.

Yeah
Here's my friend's computer story board thing. I refuse to call it a blog...
There's instructions and a video of it in action, too.
