Police States Popping Up All Over


Looks Like we should all buy Tasers, now.

Taser Deaths Are Rising - Can We Defend Ourselves From Abuse?


Taser deaths are rising throughout the United States, Canada, and other global communities whom have adopted their use. Tasers are not safe, and their use constitutes cruel and unusual punishment; under some circumstances, the Taser is used as an instrument of torture against ordinary citizens, some of whom are losing their lives. It’s time for Congress to step-in and regulate Tasers just as they do firearms, and discharging a Taser should not be common-place, but the exception rather than the rule.

Torture For Airline Passengers



Damn, we can't make this stuff up!


Want some torture with your peanuts?

A senior government official with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has expressed great interest in a so-called safety bracelet that would serve as a stun device, similar to that of a police Taser®. This bracelet would: • take the place of an airline boarding pass • contain personal information about the traveler • be able to monitor the whereabouts of each passenger and his/her luggage • shock the wearer on command, completely immobilizing him/her for several minutes. The Electronic ID Bracelet, as it is referred to, would be worn by every traveler “until they disembark the flight at their destination.”


According to a letter from DHS official, Paul S. Ruwaldt of the Science and Technology Directorate, office of Research and Development, to the inventor whom he had previously met with, he wrote, “To make it clear, we [the federal government] are interested in…the immobilizing security bracelet, and look forward to receiving a written proposal.”
