Stun weapons at the moment are things like tasers aren't they? Don't they need a wire with a barb on the end?
If only we had proper directed energy stun weapons. On second thought no prolly not a good thing..
Why are police forces across the United States becoming more militarized?Go home aliens, go home!!!!

I didn't know of that story.
I also was not aware that police in London do carry guns but not the rest of the UK outside London.
Back to my other question why are police in the USA becoming more and more militarized? That's kind of scary.Go home aliens, go home!!!!

Ok, I know that the tinfoil hat comments will be forthcoming, but you're right, the police in the US have been becoming more heavily armed and aggressive as of late.
At the same time, attacks on the 2nd amendment have been increasing, along with a general increase in government intrusion into our lives.
This isn't just the current administration either, it's been going on for a while. Often under the banner of "security", "Anti Terrorisim" and whatnot.
It makes sense IF there is a hidden plot afoot to convert the US into some sort of police or authoritarian regime.

Now why would this work in this country but say not here in Australia where our PM thinks coal is good for humanity. He was quoted as saying that. I even saw the speech on TV where that line of utter stupid came out.
If a country like the Netherlands can do this why can't we?Go home aliens, go home!!!!
