Ok, no idea where else to put it, but I'm REALLY starting to hate the less lethal ammunition movement.

A taser shotgun round... great idea. Although the technogeek side of my soul thinks it is beyond cool if it works, it's jsut a bad idea. We've been training law enforcement to break out the taser at low levels of confrontation. Then they made it pistol shaped, and we got people thinking they grabbed their taser and grabbign their gun, and vise versa.
Now they want to put the taser in a REAL firearm. So now we train the police to reach for the shotgun at low threat levels to contain the situation?
Like the subject says.. this should end well.
