Pumps' Perplexities

Being an Internet junkie, as I am.....I am beginning
to read more stories regarding the use of a new
"police toy", the Taser Gun........

I will agree that police do have problems, once
in a while, in controlling a "situation"......Years
ago the policeman used his "billy club".....(It was
an "up" and personal thing.).....The use of a gun
in situations today result in countless legal
ramifications......So along come the "electric
shock gun"......Not designed to "kill" (although
it has) but just to "stun" and stop someone's
aggression........

But as of of late, it seems that this new "toy"
has become the weapon of choice by the police
or a sheriff's officer.......

Years ago you got hit with "the big stick", now
you get "zapped" with some high voltage,
FROM A DISTANCE.......

What ever happened to, "A policeman is your
friend?".......Pumps
