COLUMBUS, Ohio--Columbus police just got new tasers that they say will keep them safer on the streets.
The new "Shot- Gun" tasers are accurate up to one hundred feet and they are wire-less.



They give the same sting but can be shot farther away.

The original tasers were only accurate up to twenty five feet.

Cops tell ABC 6, it gives them more time to apprehend a dangerous suspect without using lethal force.


Columbus Police Get New Tasers

TTaser stun guns are going wireless, doubling their range.

The Taser XREP is an electrically charged dart that can be fired from up to 20 metres away with a 12-gauge shotgun. Upon impact, its barbed electrodes penetrate a victim’s skin, discharging a 20-second burst of electricity to “distract, disorient and entice the subject to grab the projectile”, says Taser. But grabbing the dart routes the shock through the hand, making it difficult to let go and spreading the pain further.

While the XREP delivers a lower voltage for a longer time, a spokeswoman for Taser says its effect is similar to existing versions.

Commercial production of the XREP is due to start later this month, with US police departments and the US military expected to be using the weapons by the end of 2009.

This is great....giving robocops a wireless taser is like giving a hyper active child some candy. If we thought many cops were taze crazy already, just wait and see what happens when these shotgun tazers are implemented on the streets.... unbelievable.

When the sheeple eventually wake up and go out and protest, these are the kinds of weapons that will be used against them.
