    Default Question about being attacked with a Taser

    So at work last night I was having a discussion with two female employees, apparently one just broke up with her boyfriend who according to her is a physicopath and is known to sit outside the work place in his car. The other female says that if he does this again she will taser him.

    Now I'm pretty sure if you taser someone without probable cause its considered an attack? So say if you got tasered for no reason could you legally draw your firearm in defense of yourself?

    Sounds to me like you need to distance yourself and contact a lawyer.

    The "other female" is asking for a bad time... don't know the laws but if an unknown came up to me and started to taze, I'd do my best to draw and fire, if you can. That could be a fun Myth Busters series... I've been tazed/stun gun in a training... not fun. Hurt like hell. My automatic response was to start laughing and I did hold on for about 5 seconds (a LIFETIME) and then I was on the ground.. Not a bad showing for a guy that never did that before.. and probably won't ever again! HAHA

    If there is a possible threat in the parking lot prohibiting her from getting to her vehicle/anywhere safely then she needs to call the police and not try to Rambo the situitation herself.

    This... Restraining orders work too.

    As far as getting tasered, I will say that we mere mortals do not have access to LE issue tasers, so they would just be those little stun gun things you can get from a catalog. I've been hit with one, they hurt like hell, but didn't nearly have the punch that the X26 has.

    You can buy M and X 26 tasers.... They're just not cheap. Just gotta know where to look.
