Same goes for the OC spray, some people can fight right through the pain and it have no effect on them what so ever. The report finds that: (1) Injury rates vary widely when officers use force in general, ranging from 17% to 64% for citizens and 10% to 20% for officers; (2) Use of Tasers and other CEDs can reduce the statistical rate of injury to suspects and officers who might otherwise be involved in more direct, physical conflict — an analysis of 12 agencies and more than 24,000 use-of-force cases “showed the odds of suspect injury decreased by almost 60% when a CED was used”; and (3) A review of fatal Taser incidents found that many involved multiple uses of the device against the suspect in
First, they wanted to attack a precise region with these weapons. With a contagious agent, the disease could spread past the designated area and cause unwanted harm. For example, if the army wanted to attack a single building in an urban area, they could use it in a grenade form in that house along. The disease would not spread because it is not contagious. 8.
Less than lethal weapens What are the two major less than lethal weapons developed for law enforcement? Two major less then lethal weapons developed for law enforcement would be Tasers and Aerosol Chemical Agents. How have these weapons helped law enforcement and reduce injury? If I was a police officer I think that I would rather use a taser on someone then a gun. With a gun you probably have more of a chance of hurting and killing someone then what you do if you were to use a taser.
A benefit of a nation without guns would be that we would turn into a nation of great runners. What does she think… that guns are a contributing factor in the nation’s obesity problem? The general safety of having guns around is a big issue that is brought up. Yes, people do not usually accidently kill themselves while cleaning their knives as is sometimes the case with guns. Knives, when used in a fight, seldom kill another person besides the intended victim as well.
It related two things, how harmful and deadly smoking is and how terrible the terrorist attack was on the Twin Towers. I do believe that this ad along with other ads do help people to quit smoking. Everyone is touched by different things in different ways at different times in their lives. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website, the percentage of adults that smoke has declined 3% from 2005 to 2013. As for the terrorists, I do not think that this ad will affect them in any way.
In fact, the thirty one states that follow the “shall issue” laws (the law to conceal weapons) “have on average, a twenty four percent lower violent crime rate, a nineteen percent lower murder rate, and a thirty nine percent lower robbery rate than states that forbid concealed weapons.” The nine states with the lowest violent crime rates all have right to carry laws. (http//:www.cato.org) Gun control laws do not work; it is not a theoretical statement, but a statistically proven one. Despite it being an incredibly corny line: “Guns don’t kill people, people kill people,” or “When guns are outlawed, only the outlaws will have guns.” These statements are essentially true; saying that a gun kills a person is like saying that the car, not the drunk driver, drove itself into a head on collision with a school bus. It is true however, that the person yielding the gun is the killer, not the gun itself. For fucking Christ’s sake it’s an
Running Head: Tasers and Impact Munitions Tasers and Impact Munitions Jana Engleking Everest University CCJ 1020-12 Professor Demetric Armstead March 12, 2012 Tasers and other stun guns have proved effective in limiting injuries to police and suspects, but law enforcements need to guard against potential abuse by officers who overly rely on such tools (The Post and Courier, 2009). The findings from a study are included in one of the largest studies conducted into police use of force and injuries that result from stun guns, pepper spray, batons, and firearms (The Post and Courier, 2009). The study, funded by a $650,000 U.S. Justice Department grant, comes at a time when more than 11,500 police agencies use Tasers to control suspects
Premise Statement Society must understand that increasing gun control is not the answer to prevent mass shootings. Most shootings happen occur most often in establishments where citizens are likely to be unarmed such as schools, federal or state buildings and other various places where firearms are not permitted. A simple remedy to the situations is providing more lenient gun laws but requiring more training and firearm education to the common citizen. Educating and arming the American citizens is an excellent strategy to decreasing the crime rate and eliminating the probability of mass shootings across the nation by having a readily available peacekeeping citizen around every corner.

Hydrogen peroxide is used to cure common colds because it can kill bacteria but is used in very few quantities, for too much of the compound may be dangerous to the good bacteria in the skin. It is not frequently used and may not work if the procedure is done after the virus has already spread. A doctor in 1928 called Richard Simmons believed the rhinovirus, which was the virus that caused colds, found entry into the body through the ear or the mouth. By putting hydrogen peroxide in the patients' ears, it can kill any bacteria that is in the ear canal;thus, the virus can be destroyed before it spreads any further throughout the body.
  In the minds of smokers they are not harming anyone but themselves. Though smokers perceive their acts of smoking to be harmless it is in fact the opposite. Smoking does not only pollute the air, but also the streets and ground water from left over cigarette buds. These buds are very harmful for pets and wild life that may find them to be tasty treats. As smokers, they fill the air around them with harmful chemicals and cause health problems for innocent bystander.
