Two Cops One Donut

Tasers in Policing:21Foot "Rule" Myths, Realities, and Tactical Decisions


Listen Later

Welcome to another insightful episode of "Two Cops, One Donut"! Today, we tackle a critical issue in law enforcement: Can tasers always save the day in police confrontations?

Join us as we dissect this topic, starting with a viral video where an officer debunks the myth that tasers are a one-size-fits-all solution. Through real-life examples and personal stories, we reveal the stark limitations of taser use, especially when officers face armed threats.

In this episode, we:

  • Discuss the complexities of high-pressure decision-making and why firearms often become necessary in life-threatening situations.
  • Highlight the tactical considerations crucial for effective taser deployment, such as probe spread and optimal range for achieving neuromuscular incapacitation.
  • Unravel the science behind tasers, addressing common misconceptions and emphasizing the critical importance of contextual judgment calls in fast-evolving encounters.

Reflecting on my recent LinkedIn engagement, which garnered impressive attention, we also touch upon the importance of genuine law enforcement experience when discussing these contentious topics. Balancing a regular job, family, and podcasting isn't easy, but your support keeps us going.
