Lawmakers Consider Stun Gun Restrictions

Subtitled: So Lemme Get This Straight Now; Law Enforcement Abuses Something So They Blame And Want To Restrict Access To Us.

I see.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) -- "Idaho lawmakers are pushing measures to restrict the use of stun guns by the general public.

The House State Affairs Committee voted Wednesday to take testimony on a bill that would require citizens to have concealed weapon permits to carry the devices, such as Tasers. The measure would also ban sales to minors.

The Senate is amending a second bill that would restrict felons, drug addicts and those charged with or convicted of a crime with a prison sentence of at least a year from carrying the weapons. The guns have been under scrutiny because of a national controversy surrounding their use by law enforcement.

Amnesty International says at least 290 people died after being struck by police Tasers between 2001 and 2007. The concerns have prompted at least seven states to ban use of the weapons among the general public."

Say a prayer that law enforcement doesn't start crashing their cruisers at a record pace, people.

Or next on the list they'll want to ban cars.

Thanks to The War on Guns.
