I think there are some really mad individuals in the world - escpecially American business people!
Taser International executives were to meet yesterday with the Transportation Security Administration hoping to convince the agencies non-lethal weapons are safe and effective for pilots. While the decision rests with DOT, its security agency, TSA, has resisted allowing airlines to arm pilots, and Taser officials have been making the rounds on Capitol Hill seeking congressional support.
Personally I liked the one about how Cockpits, were more able to withstand bullet damage, than too much electricity from a taser. What a fantastic argument! I hope I never have to find out which it true!
