Making the bullet obsolete sounds like a worthy cause, however, it seems disingenuous to market Tasers as "non-lethal" when more than 1,000 people have died following police use of Tasers, and many more have been seriously injured, including children and pregnant women.
How do you respond to studies that find no evidence that Tasers reduce the use of firearms? It seems instead that the presence of Tasers escalates non-violent situations and increases instances of excessive force.
