Stun Guns Info

The Rock was patrolling the well-to-do neighborhood, which bordered a high crime area in the major midwestern city. The veteran policeman felt relaxed as he drove through the beautiful tree lined streets that were home to some of the grandest houses in the country. His relaxation ended quickly when Dispatch cracked out a call of a possible home invasion right around the corner. Patrolman Thomas Rakoczy was only seconds away. He was known as the Rock because he was as hard, strong and tough as one. He was the kind of cop you wanted at your home if you needed serious help.

The Rock arrived at the home and began to evaluate the scene as he walked toward the door. He entered the house and soon found two adults and two teenage girls tied up. Other officers also arrived and no one else was found in the house. Rakoczy began untying the family, starting with the man first. As he was untying him the disheveled middle-aged man hurriedly spouted out what had happened. Four men had broken down the front door (in broad daylight) and started up the long staircase leading to him and his family.

He said he saw the men coming up the stairs with guns in hand but he couldn’t do anything to stop them. So he quickly gathered his family and locked them in the master bedroom. He said they found them hiding there in less than a minute.

As he continued, he started to cry and told how they all were immediately tied up. Then they started leisurely burglarizing the home, seemingly in no hurry whatsoever. After they bagged-up everything they deemed worthwhile, things really got bad.

They took turns raping both daughters in front of him and his wife. The man was beside himself as he told what had happened. The Rock told me the mother was so bad off she was almost totally incoherent. She hadn’t been physically touched, but she witnessed what happened to her daughters.

The father kept repeating that he just couldn’t do anything to help them. Nervously he asked, “Officer, please tell me, if I would have had a gun do you think I could have helped my family”? Rakoczy didn’t want to render his opinion at such an emotional time, but the man pushed him. “I want the truth, could I have helped”? After more and more prodding, the Rock finally told him that if he would have had a gun he might have at least been able to scare them away by firing a shot at them. “They may have turned or ran away instead of trying to fight—gun-to gun” the Rock said. He also told him that with a gun he could have made a powerful stand in the bedroom as they were breaking down the door.

Thankfully, the four criminals were caught a few weeks later and sentenced to around 15 years in prison. Later, the father told Rakoczy that all through his life he was against guns and thought they were a terrible problem in our society. However, after what he and his family went through and after a lot of soul searching and thought, he had changed his mind. He said he now understood the need and availability for the best protection available for people, which are firearms. He eventually bought a gun, received training and said he was ready to protect himself and others if need be, for the rest of his life.

There are of course horror stories on the other side of the gun controversy. Ones such as children gaining access to unsecured firearms and accidentally injuring or killing others or themselves. And of course there are the stories of troubled individuals using firearms to cause mass casualties and deaths in public places. However, there are the very real stories of people protecting themselves with firearms against burglars, rapists and other predators. There’s no doubt firearms are the best self-defense tool available for the private citizen. However, and this is a big however, firearms come with many different levels of serious responsibility.

The father who changed his views on firearms shows us there is more than one side to an issue, which may change as time, circumstances, knowledge and experiences evolve. This story can help us understand, that all of us, no matter what are feelings are on this controversial subject, should step back and listen to those with differing views with dignity and respect. All differing people have viable thoughts and ideas and should be reasonably listened to. Whether it’s the hugely important issue of how mentally unstable individuals can be weeded out from owning firearms to the many other issues people differ on. Respect and true empathy for others views are the cornerstones to building workable solutions for all.

In today’s world there are so many situations that involve violence and personal attacks that it is impossible not to notice and not to try to find ways to protect ourselves. There are many choices of self-defense weapons available and it is important to choose wisely.

There has been a surge in self-defense weapons to replace the use of guns. Many individuals want to protect themselves but not with weapons that are lethal. One of the self-defense weapons that is being used the most is the hand taser.

There are numerous hand tasers on the market; however the Taser C2 is considered one of the best for a number of reasons. The Taser C2 is a powerful weapon that will send a high voltage jolt through your would be attacker and incapacitate them until you are able to get away to safety and get help.

The C2 taser will fit in your pocket, purse or hand. It comes in a variety of colors from including, pink, blue, black and more. It is reliable and affordable. Because the C2 is made by Taser International, it is considered the best hand taser available. The C2 from Taser International is a non-lethal weapon that will keep you safe.

If you have ever been in a situation where you are approached by someone who intends you harm, would you have felt better and safer if you had a non-lethal weapon even if you didn’t use it? Or, do you know someone that has been mugged or attacked, perhaps at an ATM machine? Most of us either know someone personally or see all the information on the news every day.

Hand Tasers are an excellent alternative to lethal weapons.

The act of defending oneself from people or animals who want to cause some damage is termed as Self-Defense. The purpose of self-defense is not to harm the other person but to save oneself from others. People who are physically strong use hand-to-hand combat to handle the attackers whereas people who are not physically strong use self-defense weapons to handle the attackers.

Over the past few years, a number of self-defense products have been developed which are very effective for counter-attacking the attackers. Self-defense products don’t kill the attacker but they prevent him from attacking either by disabling him for some minutes or by affecting some parts of the body so as to prevent him from attacking.

Pepper Spray: It is also known as OC spray or OC gas. It is basically a chemical compound that is used to irritate the eyes so as to cause pain, tears, and even temporary blindness. It is a less lethal agent and it is widely used for personal self-defense. Pepper Spray is usually available in canisters of small size so that an individual can carry the spray in the pocket or even in the purse. Pepper spray causes immediate closing of eyes and so, the person being attacked can use the pepper spray on the attacker so as to close the attacker’s eyes and find a way to run, hide or counter-attack.

Sometimes, a runny nose, coughing, difficulty in breathing is also caused by the pepper spray. The duration of the effects depends on the strength of the spray and so, the person being attacked has limited time to take the advantage of the effects of the spray. However, you should check the laws of your country to make sure that it’s allowed to use the pepper spray in your country as some countries don’t allow the use of pepper spray for self-defense.

Stun Guns: A stun gun is an electronic device that is used to stop an attacker and it uses high voltage for stopping an attacker. Stun guns use electric shocks to immobilize the attackers and the electric-shocks are passed to attackers whenever they touch the prongs of the stun gun. However, the attacker is disabled temporarily.

While the attacker is disabled, an individual can easily find a way to counter-attack the attacker. Different forms of stun guns are available so as to allow people to choose the one they want. People who cannot carry a stun gun in the pocket can convert their cell phones into stun guns whereas a security guard might use a stun baton as it allows an extended reach when compared to a cell phone stun gun.

Telescopic Steel Baton: Telescopic steel baton is one of the self-defense weapons that allow you to counter-attack the attacker from a safe distance. For a stun gun to work effectively, the attacker should be close to you. However, this is not very safe if the attacker is physically strong. Unlike a stun gun, the telescopic steel baton is used to counter-attack the attacker from a considerable distance. With just a flick of the wrist, steel batons can be extended to 16, 21 or 26 inches.

However, training is required to understand how a steel baton is used effectively. Also, you can easily carry an expandable steel baton with you as expandable batons usually fit perfectly in boots and so, you can take them out easily whenever a bad guy or animal approaches you.

By the way—tasers are not replacing guns–so no stupid comments about how its better than being shot because if a suspect has a gun and a cop sees that, hes not gonna pull out his taser, hes gonna use his gun. Instead tasers are being used for disagreeing with officers.

and don’t have guns?

Ashii asked:


I recently had some rather scary experiences regarding someone trying to get into my house when they knew i was home, and looking in windows, etc. Last night he tried to get into my house with all of my lights on, and the tv loud. I am not sure if he was trying to rob me, but it sure scared the hell out of me, and it doesnt seem like robbery was his intent as i saw him -looked him straight in the eyes, but he only ran away when he couldnt get the door open and he saw me run to the phone.

I am looking for protection and i would like some recommendations. I am a small female, so do you recomend a stun gun, or a hand gun (i did grow up with guns so it would not be new to me).

Any models in particular?

daisymae asked:


Ladies, I heard on the news that women are having stun gun parties. They serve refreshments and then they sell these guns at the party. They also do demonstrations. Move over Botox. This world gets stranger everyday.
