After watching a teenager stand up against bullying on video over at YouTube, my best mate and I were motivated to put up no longer with being strong-armed. However, when Cooper started surfing the Web for Tasers, I did not see it coming and was prompted to exclaim, "are Tasers legal where we are?"
We are both on our third year at Miami Dade College in which the massive student body makes it easy for acts of intimidation to go unchecked. Cooper heard from a sibling that a Taser bests a 9-mm. handgun when it comes to rapid immobilization and that it would penetrate 2 inches of clothing.
A disposable cartridge packed with compressed nitrogen that is inside a Taser propels a pair of probes joined to the device by wires carrying 50,000 volts of electrical charges. Those wires are 15 feet in length, so I can stay well out of harm's way. The Taser serves as a contact stun gun less the wires for close-quarter defense.
Even I have seen in flicks how Tasers deliver non-lethal self-defense whether up close or from afar. Now, we needed to know, where are Tasers legal to apply in case of an attack? And is Florida included?
For citizen usage, a Taser is barred apparently in the District of Columbia, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island and Wisconsin, all in all. In Connecticut and Illinois, use is legitimate but with limitations. In Miami-Dade County, no ban on Tasers seems to be in effect.
Now, how much are Tasers legal for carriage? We learned that a Taser would not work until registered for activation, which prompts a background check by Taser International. Plus, the cartridge bears a unique serial number and follows an Anti-Felon Identification system, so that it releases 20 to 30 serialized paper tags when put to use. These would reveal the owner's identity.
Also, a lifetime replacement guarantee comes with the Taser in the event of it being fired due to self-defense. It can be set down to keep the assailant curbed as one runs away. Send the company a copy of the police report to be given a unit replacement, free of charge.
At what age are Tasers legal to have in our possession? Much to our relief, we should be 18 or older. And we are. As Cooper won me over to his preference of non-lethal self-defense device, it is simply a matter of picking from civilian Tasers such as the Taser C2, the Taser M26C and the Taser X26C.
