In order for law enforcement officers to contain traffic pursuits they now use pursuit management technology which helps to stop a pursuit before something gets damaged or somebody gets hurt. Police officers sometimes have to deal with violent, combative people and while dealing with them have to keep in mind the use-of-force protocols. Less-lethal technologies give police an alternative to using physical force options that potentially are more dangerous to the officers and the suspects (National Institute of Justice). There are seven types of less-than lethal technology. Conducted Energy Devices, such as the Taser and Stun gun, can induce involuntary muscle contractions that temporarily incapacitate people.
With an air taser, you can disable an attacker from up to 10 feet away. This means that you do not have to be close enough to touch the attacker, as required with a stun gun. Tasers are commonly used by the police force, and much research has been completed on their efficiency. They are an effective means of self-defense, especially when used against someone who threatens use of a knife or blunt weapon, as you are able to maintain a safe distance from them. Some people do not like the idea of using air tasers because they deliberately cause pain to the attacker.
Some assault weapons are designed after military weapons. There more reliable, simple, take more abuse which makes them easier to maintain, and are more accurate. Features like a pistol grip allow the user to keep better control of the gun. A collapsible stock allows the gun to be adjusted for different users. A muzzle compensator goes on the end of the rifle barrel and is used to prevent the gun from rising as the gun is fired.
Three key biomechanics lower body mechanics, creating torque and turning it into speed and snapping the stick. Whether shooting the ball left handed or right handed, you want lead knee extension. This causes friction with the lower body against the ground, which will press back with equal force and you are essentially, transferring energy from the ground up through your body and into the core of your body which then spreads to your shoulders and arms. The stabilizing muscles used behind shooting a lacrosse stick, are your shoulders and arms. The further an object is from its axis of rotation, the further its linear speed.
If that's too difficult, perform theexercise on your knees. 2 Thai Crucifix Sets: 3 Reps: 5-10 (each side) Get into pushup position and then rotate to your right side, raising your right hand straight overhead (A). From there, raise your right knee and move your arm so that your knee and elbow touch while you're bracing (B). Hold for three seconds and then repeat on the opposite side. If that's too diffi cult, perform the exercise
Q: In your opinion, which non-lethal tool on a police officer’s belt, either the taser, pepper spray, or the night stick, is best for handling the most dangerous suspects in a confrontation? A: I think all officers have under gone training to make that decision during confrontation depending on the threat to the individual, themselves and the public. All weapons can do damage if misused it’s up to training institutions to provide proper education and the officers themselves to use their discretion. Q: Do you think tasers are too powerful to be used to disarm or bring down a suspect? If yes, what if it was a last resort instead of using the gun in a non life-threatening situation?
“With some reluctance I decided to try carrying a pistol.” (Hasselstrom, 1991/2010, p.359) Hasselstrom sat through all the classes and received a license from the sheriff, making it legal for her to carry the gun. She did not skip any steps, and made all the precautions to be safe while carrying the gun. But as she made clear, “Just carrying a pistol is not protection enough; avoidance is still the best approach to trouble.” (Hasselstrom, 1991/2010, p. 359) Hasselstrom’s approach was not to go around shooting people that put her in harm’s way, it was there for a sense of security, just in case something bad were to happen. Hasselstrom’s last point is how carrying the pistol helped her get away from potential attackers. “Right over there,” I said, still being polite.
Treneice Lott Policing in American-7 Instructor, Joseph Pilliteri June 29, 2013 The two major less than lethal weapons that is use by law enforcement is pepper spray and stun guns. Pepper spray has an intense burning, breathing problems, and, temporary blindness and effectively disable your aggressor or attacker. Also, pepper spray can be effective on attacking animals to. The stun gun uses electrical current to the attacker and your assailant will have this intense pain and lose control of muscles. Stun gun is not lethal, but cause serious harm to someone with pace maker.
Persuasive Essay on Gun Control or Uncontrolled Guns Daryl Casey COM/215 February 1, 2012 Sheryl Brown Persuasive Essay on Gun Control or Uncontrolled Guns According to "Legal Information Institute" (n.d.), " A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed” (para. n.d.). There are people who believe strongly in each word of this amendment and then there are those who think its existence is troublesome. There is one person who believes “if all people carried a gun it would be considered a civilized act” (Caudill, 2010). Therefore, the question is do people really want a form of gun control or would it be a safer place with uncontrolled guns?
so the basic concept is, when you get some type of perk in a tennis racket, you are always sacrificing something else, which is usually the control. To go over a few things like the head size, which is the round part of the tennis racket,you know on top there is a over-size, a mid-size and the small-head size. the over-size is obviously easier to hit, a bigger hit spot but you sacrifice control as you don't have much control. Also the weigh and the length, the more weight you have, the less control you will have over the tennis racket but you get more power overall. Also the string tension, which is basically almost the same idea.
