"Hamilton police shot and killed dozens last year."

The above headline is fake.

But taser fan-boys would have us believe that it would be true if the police have their taser-toys taken away.

The actual story is that a taser ignited something flammable injuring someone that was being tasered. The story [LINK] ends with the following sentence:

"Hamilton police discharged their Tasers 50 times last year."

50 times per year. This rate of [mis]use reveals the claim that "tasers replace guns" as the bald-faced lie that it is.

Tasers are obviously replacing lower forms of lawful force (talking, waiting, the simplest of martial arts).

That makes their net benefit to society -> negative.
