TASERS, TASER Guns, and Stun Guns What is a TASER Gun?A TASER gun is basically an electroshock gun that is produced by a company called TASER international. The name TASER is actually an acronym that stands for “Thomas A. Swift’s Electric Rifle.” It was originally designed in 1969 by an inventor named Jack Cover who named the gun after the adventure character Tom Swift. How do TASER Guns and Stun Guns Work?TASER guns fire small dart-like electrodes that are propelled by small gas charges (such as compressed nitrogen). The electrodes have metal wires that attach back to the taser gun. When the electrodes make contact with the target, the TASER transmits powerful electrical pulses along the wires and into the body of the target. The maximum range of TASER guns is about 30 feet. The TASER guns use a shaped pulse / arc of electricity that disrupts a person's nerve and muscle function without needing metal prongs on the projectile to penetrate the skin. The "pulse" model TASER guns are designed to bring down a subject even if they are wearing body armor. Who Uses TASER Guns and Stun Guns?TASER guns are used primarily by police departments in an effort to reduce the number of lethal firearm-related deaths. Many police departments report a decline in the number of police officer-involved shootings as a result of using the police TASER guns. TASER guns and stun guns are also used by private security guards as an alternative to carrying a firearm. Private citizens also use taser guns and stun guns as a method of personal protection. Controversy over TASER Guns and Stun GunsThere is growing controversy about the use, or abuse of TASER guns. While they are not technically considered lethal weapons, many question the safety and humaneness of TASER guns. Many people feel the use of taser guns is abused. A number of civil liberty groups would like to see tasers banned completely. In fact, Amnesty International has documented over 150 deaths related to the use of TASER guns. Recently, the U.S. National Institute of Justice began a study into taser-related abuse deaths that occurred while a subject was custody. Following are some interesting articles related to the use of these weapons:
