Buy Tasers

I just saw the report that the police used a Taser on some guy, and it not only subdued him, it also restored his heart rhythm as he was having some heart problems before.

Since Tasers are recommended as an alternative to deadly force, and since Automatic Emergency Defibrillators (AEDs) are recommended for just about every public setting, I propose that people carry one Taser to fulfill both recommendations. If Taser (or any of Taser’s competitors whose names no one knows because Taser is as established a brand as Kleenex) decides to promote this, it could be a very good campaign for them. It could allow them to sell their products in states or cities where they are currently banned. Just label them as AEDs and they are instantly legal! Or maybe it’s not that easy.
