Oh those non-PR flaks at Taser are oh-so subtle. You need to read every word.
"...much of the research by the Governments of the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and leading academic and medical institutions has been funded independent of TASER International. To date, there are more than 120 major studies or analysis of TASER devices and TASER technology with more than 80 percent of them funded independent of TASER International. In fact, the US Department of Justice has been a prolific funder of TASER research recently and one of the first to fund human studies...." [LINK]
Yes, certain recent studies have been "independently funded", but their independence has been called into question. Classic example: Webster [LINK] [LINK] [LINK]
Also, ALL THREE studies listed by Taser's non-PR flaks (see [LINK], towards bottom) are authored by teams that include Taser Spokespuppets (for example: Kroll and Ho and probably others).
Sigh...
