How does OC compare to CS? CS gas is pretty brutal
I understand why you guys have to train with OC. I mean even if you don't get hit directly there's splash back, wind, guy flailing around splatters the stuff in your face...you still have to subdue and detain even if your face is burning off so you should know what to expect. But what's the point of experiencing a Taser?
I see two scenarios of how an officer may get tased while on duty. Either
A) BG gets his hands on it and turns it on you. I don't think you stand much of a chance detaining him while he's got electrified prongs in you.
or B) you shoot yourself with the Taser. Then you're not very bright.
Either way I don't see how you taking a hit in training helps. Or maybe knowing what it feels like makes you try harder when weapons retention training comes up???
