Taser Conflicts of Interest approved by Chief

Vancouver Sun, May 16, 2008 - Vancouver businessman Randy Puder ... raised a possible conflict of interest, pointing out that two officers who do police training have a website for their private company, Defensive Tactics Inc. of Vancouver, which says the officers -- Vancouver police Insp. John McKay and Sgt. Joel Johnston -- are trainers certified by Taser International. Johnston ... is in favour of taser use in B.C. and is the province's use-of-force coordinator for police services, a division of the Solicitor-General's Ministry. ... Johnston is also in charge of a review of Taser use in B.C. for the B.C. Association of Municipal Chiefs of Police. [LINK]

Johnston ... said he had approval from the police chief to run a private company.


Well, I guess it's okay then. {ROLLS-EYES}

Why don't we just outsource the whole damn thing (I'm referring to law enforcement in BC) to Taser?
