Now I know this will seem like a stretch for admins here but bare with me, here it goes..
With the new technology of these tazer products that can drop people in their tracks from 30ft. away and are available for most people in most states. That includes people with bad backgrounds(the bad guys). So with these bad guys possibly walking the streets with tazers, if something were to happen, they could drop you on the spot. I see this becoming a problem once those people realize they can afford these devices. Now the situation.
Something breaks out and people with ccw's being good Samaritans, would like to defend another good Samaritan or them self, as they should. Push comes to shove and it escalates to a firearm being drawn by one of the bad guys. You draw yours fearing for the worst and before you no it, your layed out by a tazer and temporarily incapacitated. Now the bad guy can quickly grab what he came for and also grab the gun that you dropped since you could not move.
Am I insane? I see this as a great way for bad guys to get police officers weapons and break for it. However its just as easy if they can get someone to draw a CCW and they score a easy handgun.
How, if at all, could someone react to this? I really dont see any plausible answer except know your surroundings like your life depends on it. Seems far fetched now but I could see these tazers (not simply a stun gun) becoming more of a problem than solution( except for LEO's). What do you guys think?
