Many taser fan-boys claim that the taser is safe under all circumstances. Or if they allow some risks, they're generally external (a.k.a. 'secondary') risks, such as falling down. I think that we're all familiar with these arguments and the 'science' upon which they are based.
Here's a discrepancy that they cannot explain: Even the NIJ (and even with taser fan-boys sitting on the panel [LINK]) has been forced to note that repeated taserings seem to be related to increased risk of death. [LINK]
But the pro-taser 'science' (one example [LINK]) cannot explain this real-world fact. Their 'science' indicates that tasers are essentially perfectly safe from an internal risk point of view. There is nothing in their 'science' that can explain this apparently increased risk of death associated with multiple taserings.
'Science' that fails to make accurate predictions is obviously not complete and not correct.
And those that hold such obviously incomplete and incorrect 'science' in high regard are simply revealing their own biases and/or purposes.
