I ask this question because the Toronto Police Services Board just turned downed the police force's request for 500 tasers for their members. In Toronto the only police with tasers are the ETF so if their is a situation the police either have to wait for ETF or they use the force they have, being a hand-gun. The police services board has made this a political issue as the board is made up of a majority of left-leaning members, which is fact as the board members have all-but said this in public. The Toronto city council is made up of a majority of liberal/socialist members and they follow whatever the mayor tells them to do. This same board has rejected helicoptors for Toronto because they make to much noise, and the cost as well. They are against the current police chief because he has the balls to criticize the mayor, so anything that may help the police do their job better they will vote against.
This is the same board that berates the police force when they use deadly force, but when the police comes to them for money for tasers, which is alot less deadlier option then guns, they vote against it. Would you not want your police force using a taser on a suspect instead of a gun? The answer would seem pretty freakin obvious to me, but the liberals in Canada, who are anti-punishment for criminals, whould answer otherwise.
All I can say for them is that I hope a family member of theirs isn't accidentally shot by a cop in Toronto, in the commission of a crime, when a taser could have immobilezed them and allowed the cops to arrest the person without death. Then the shit would hit the fan, and I bet the cops would have tasers pretty quickly. Come to Canada where our politicians don't want the cops to use tasers or guns on the criminals, they just want them to talk to the criminals and ask them to please not commit anymore crimes. Boy do I wish we had the death penalty up here.



RIP Tasia baby, I miss you...
