To the officers?
I just realized, they’re going to grab people, hold them down, and not turn it off… They’re going to just torture people in the streets.
I hadn’t quite realized it will be a “stop resisting” Hobson’s choice. It doesn’t matter what the victim does. The result is the same. In either case - you end up with ~4 guys (or more?) torturing you.
If you resist - they keep torturing you as they yell “Stop resisting!”
But…
If you stop resisting - they keep torturing you as they lie-yell “Stop resisting!”
The manufacturer warns the device should not be used as punishment, against people merely exhibiting “verbal defiance or belligerence” or on high-risk populations such as children, pregnant women or elderly or disabled people.
Peters said he expected the devices to be misused by a small number of employees, as with other policing technologies, but he said they are unlikely to cause injuries. He said it would be important for ICE to have robust policies and training in place.
I don’t even feel like I need to comment on this overall news, but I’ve highlighted the parts that make me think the vendor knows 100% dead ass how these will be used in practice.
He does, and when people die it will be used to argue ICE needs more funding to pay for training for their overpriced murder toys be abuse they already spent the existing budget on murder toys
100% chance they’ll kill someone with a pacemaker if this gets deployed.
They will kill other people too. They’re going to use the highest setting in every situation every time. And I bet they’ll attack people en mass so the poor victim will get zapped a dozen times or more one after another. And then - of course - they’ll lie about everything. As usual - they will also claim they felt “their lives were in danger”.
Maybe the dems will put forth a strongly worded bill called Pretty Please Don’t Electrocute Perps to Death, Ice.
Dems would make their bill more into a cute acronym that they think sounds really clever
EPIC ICE (Electrocuting Perps Isn’t Cool, ICE)
Bleh. Well, I tired.
That’s spot-on. You even got Hillary pogging underneath you
I wanted to make a cute acronym but my mind doesn’t work that way. It might have taken me ages to come up with something only half-decent.
Maybe the dems will put forth a strongly worded bill called Pretty Please Don’t Electrocute Perps to Death, Ice.
And the bill’s contents will involve increasing their funding and discussing maybe perhaps possibly spending some of it on a tiny bit of training for them, if they want to.
They are going to grab people by the head and shock them until their eyeballs sizzle. They already kill people who don’t have pacemakers using tazers.
Boy, they sure love their no-bid contracts, huh?
What if we did a centrally planned economy but with a bunch of grift on top?
Oops! All Graft
Literally:
Oh, word?
Thing happens in the US
Americans everywhere: “What are we, a bunch of filthy slurs?”
Yeah, that’s probably what they meant, but I wanna imagine that was written by an Iraqi.
You know they are going to shock themselves far more often than their victims
Eh, they’ve got a lot of victims.
There needs to be consequences for the people who work to bring devices like this into existence.
Waiting for an ICE thug to forget to take the gloves off before using the bathroom and tasing themselves in the dick
Bunch of Batman level goons now
Fuckin’ d-list Electrocutioner rip-offs
Actually
And who did he get those gloves from?
hopefully they forget to take them off when taking a piss
Unrelated, but is silly string conductive?
No, but it is flammable
Just what we need… Mall cop raiden
SWIM heard these gloves gave an amazing sensation to officers when they shove it down their pants at max voltage.
