Too funny.....thanks for the laugh.

That was funny and I can feel that guys pain.  A few years ago, we did training for our SIRT team and were going to be issued tasers.  Part of the training included being tased.  For some stupid reason the brass felt that we should all know what it feels like to be tased if we are going to carry one.  I carry a gun and have no desire to be shot or hit with an ASP baton, so I didn't get the logic.  We had the option of a 1 second or a 5 second "ride."  Out of the 40 or so guys on the team me and 3 others decided we would take the 5 second ride or 5 seconds of being tased.  Everyone else, obviously the brighter people took the 1 second option.  These are the tasers that shoot the probes out to about 21 feet or so.  The further apart the contacts are the greater the effect, so it is much more effective and painful than hand held units.

I can honestly say it was the worst 5 seconds of my life.  The pain was excruciating, my entire body was tense and every muscle twitched and convulsed.  My brain was counting 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand, up to what seemed liked 6 or 7 one thousand.  I was yelling turn the f'n thing off and all that came out was a series of grunts.  You are completely lucid the entire time and can do nothing about it.  You can't even communicate, but you can hear the taser arching.  I never want to be tasered again, it was horrible.  I will take OC spray (mace) which lasts about 20 minutes over the 5 second taser anyday.  You can OC spray me now and it's no big deal to me, I've been srayed accidentally many times on the street by other officers when fighting with subjects. 

There is nothing you can do to combat a taser, it is debilatating.  If a bad guy threatened me with a taser, I'd probably wind up  shooting him.  Because, there is no fighting it or weapon retention when tased. 

Tasing yourself or agreeing to being tased must be a stupid guy thing, women have much more sense than to do these things.  My wife really doesn't understand it.  I would buy my wife a taser if I was sure I wouldn't get her mad and she'd use it on me.
