But the Home Office stressed police could use any weapon they saw fit as long as its use was "lawful, reasonable and proportionate".[via TNT]
"lawful, reasonable and proportionate"
How about the following?
Not marketed with false promises of effectivity and non-lethality?
Accompanied by honest, unbiased, complete training that isn't controlled by the slick-talking, fork-tongued(*) stun gun salesmen?
(* The test for honesty is very simple - if they claim that the X26 taser {for example} is inherently safe, as opposed to carrying a risk of death, then they're not being honest. By this simple test can the honesty of your local stun gun salesmen be judged.)
