As of today, the Metropolitan Police will issue Tasers to all of its previously unarmed officers. They are saying the stun guns will provide an often needed method of non-deadly force to control an adrenaline-crazed criminal. Even though Amnesty International links the weapons to more than 70 deaths, and the Taser has been getting a lot of bad press recently, the UK police maintain that 'there have been "no severe or adverse reactions" since Taser was introduced in 2003.' Hmmm... maybe not in the UK anyways. Should police officers be armed with Tasers?
