Andy Greenberg says:

Taser International is still thinking of new ways to paralyze people, this time with an adaptable stick on surface for any device. From a PR perspective, the company can always argue that these semi-brutal devices are just innovative ways to avoid lethal force.

Pretty soon, cops won't just be packing stun guns.  They'll be carrying electrically-charged riot shields, zapping their unruly without unholstering their weapons.  That is, if the folks at Taser International have their way.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://blog.wired.com/defense/2008/05/pretty-soon-cop.html"><P>The company just introduced the "<A href="http://www.primenewswire.com/newsroom/news.html?d=142464">Taser Shield
