Why do people keep using this statistic to justify their belief that tasers are used too much? Tasers are not ment to be used on armed persons... thats what guns are for. The statistic should read, 3 out of 4 people are happy not to have a bullet in the head. “An analysis of 563 incidents by the Canadian Press last year found that three in four suspects shot with a Taser by the RCMP between 2002 and 2005 were unarmed.”
