Stun Me

Read the FAQ it is funny:

What if I wrapped myself in aluminum foil or something like that, would I be immune to being tetanized?
First, you would have to be very sure that you didn't leave any skin uncovered, because the human body is as electrically conductive as a sack of salty water. The current would spread from an uncovered wrist, ankle, or neck to a very wide area. Second, you wouldn't be protected from the bullets that would likely follow a police officer's failure to stop you by a more harmless means.


LOL!

The device is hefty in both size and price tag. Herr expects initial units to fetch $35,000. Law enforcement officials, and perhaps criminals interested in torturing their victims, would probably opt for cheaper handguns.

Price will come down in time, especially when they get it to flashlite size.

&quot;Herr says the device has yet to be tested on animals or people, but it is a safer and more efficient way to stop criminals than handguns or &quot;Taser&quot; guns -- which release physically painful darts that can only travel to 20 feet. &quot;

So...they are planning on selling it for $35,000, but they don't even know if it works :confused:

Oh, and my favorite &quot;non-lethal&quot; police intervention weapon is the bean-bag shotgun :)

It shoots been bags at about 200 FPS :) It'll knock you on your ass.
