It is just a matter of constitutional support that does not exist for tasers. And considering that you can very well imagine if anyone had asked for gun permission today US gov would have permitted it. We can check a lot of legal cases fought by state governments to get the use of weapons etc. banned but only to face the lose at the hands of apex court.


Ok, I'm sorry but this is the sickest answer yet.

Cite a case where a taser has been the primary case of the death of a person. Then I will listen.

These aren't conspiracy theories based accusations but actual reported in the
News facts.

No tasers do not kill people.


An official document from Canada on the subsequent investigationof the Royal Mounted Police Department after a Polish immigrant died after being tased repeatedly.

Quote:
Report Following a Public Interest Investigation into a Chair-Initiated Complaint Respecting the Death in RCMP Custody of Mr. Robert Dziekanski

http://www.cpc-cpp.gc.ca/prr/rep/rev/chair-pre/dziekanski/robert_1-eng.aspx


And BTW? No where in my posts am I agreeing that tasers should in fact remain illegal. I could care less anyway the issue goes. I am just answering the OP's question WITH known facts NOT undereducated blind bias.

@kickycan,
Great point. But why is weed illegal. It only gets people high. guns kill. U see my point and am only playing devils advocate. I am a huge proponent of the demolishing of every deadly weapon. It makes zero sense to me why a human being would even think of producing something that could kill his own person. If ur worried about getting mugged or raped etc a taser or even beebie gun is enough to ward someone off and if someone wants to mug u it would be just as effective to do it with a taser but atleast they cant accidently misfire it and kill u. Tase u, take ur stuff and be gone. It puts all humankind on even playing field.BUT bottom line is always the bottom line and there isnt any money in taser sales and certainly no money in mas media reporting on taser wars across seas

@ehBeth,
"A determination with respect to the cause of Mr. Dziekanski's death is outside the scope of this report.."

"An autopsy was performed by Dr. Charles Lee on Mr. Dziekanski on October 16, 2007. Dr. Lee stated in his autopsy report that the cause of death cannot be conclusively determined and that a pre-existing heart condition of Mr. Dziekanski combined with signs of chronic alcoholism and being pinned in the prone position as he was being subdued, may have led to a fatal arrhythmia"

Just two days ago, in Camden County, Mo, Glenn Norman.

Not to mention the tragic death in Fullerton, which attracted worldwide attention.

And Howard Thomas Cook Jr. died in York City Police custody after he was shocked twice with a Taser two months ago.

I knew an older man, who tased his girlfriend, just because she did not slavishly do his bidding. You don't have to be killed by one to unjustly suffer from them.

cite a case from a medical examiner backed by the courts that a taser used on someone was a primary cause of death........

@Walter Hinteler,
Trying to learn doesn't seem to be trying too hard, perhaps she should change her name to wilfully deluded.

@izzythepush,
Since a taser doesn't leave a smoking hole in a body where the life had been, it's easy for the simple minded to miss the facts.
