Require all police officers to be armed with taser devices

I think that our Police services should be equipped with more methods of dealing with incidents. We believe firearms are not a suitable solution, and an alternative less lethal option is available, a Taser device.

Equipping our Police Officers with such devices could help to ensure that if a threat is real and occurring, it can be dealt with immediately. Currently, the Police may have to request other officers. This can lead to delays which can cause injury to the police officer as well as members of the public. I think being armed with a taser will allow officers to be more protected and more able to protect. Equip officers!
