Post BA To Arm Pilots With Stun Guns

Just read in todays Times, and I don't have it in front of me so I can't quote it directly;
BA is considerning arming its pilots with Stun Guns and putting sky-marshalls on flights (didn't say if they'd be equipped with real guns or stun guns also) Also mentioned, as has already been discussed here on PPRUNE, CCTV etc showing whats going on other side of flight-deck door. Anyone gpt any thoughts on this, particually those on the inside?
Can someone explain what a stun gun is exactly? How does it work and how effective is it?
