Gotta love this quote from the article:

So far the gun has been quite popular with police in the United States (TASER International is based in Scottsdale Arizona) and Canada.
"Quite popular!"
What's not to like?
They can inflict excruciating pain on whomever they choose and not even break a sweat or soil their jack-boots.
Never been a better time to be a uniformed thug, eh?
Now with the flying saucer Taser, they don't even have to get out of their seat back at the station.
Remote-control thuggery, ain't life grand!
