Watching this still makes me hurt and laugh. Also known as "riding the white lightening" this bad boy shocks you with 50,000 volts of electricity. The purpose is to stop the brain from being able to send messages to the rest of the body thus making an officer able to gain control of a combative suspect. The people to each side of me are to make sure I don't fall flat on my face which would have happened had they not been there.
I'm told the reason is so that I know what it feels like to be tasered. That way if I ever go to court I can explain that I've experienced this before and I was not using excessive force. I understand the logic behind this reasoning. However, my argument is I don't need to be shot by my own gun to know that it hurts. ;-)
