Summations Only

Prediction: within 2 years a gun in a school ostensibly to prevent or reduce school shootings ... will be used in a school shooting or accidental death.

I'm not sure why you would smile at that...In those two years, apparently, more kids will die in bicycle accidents at school. If your ultimate goal was saving kids lives at schools, then your efforts would be better focused on bicycle safety.If you say that you're ultimate goal is saving kids lives at schools, and then you focus on things that will save less lives, then you're either stupid or lying.

Why?This is a simple way to track bullets used in crimes regardless of gun ownership or type of gun.What harm does it pose to you for recreational use or for self defense use? TASER shoots ID confetti leading to arrests in violin robbery

SCOTTSDALE, AZ (CBS5) -

​

Crime scene investigators spend a lot of time searching for clues, including shell casings, fingerprints and DNA.

​

It is often pain staking and time consuming work.

​

A group of suspected thieves in Wisconsin might as well have left their drivers licenses at the scene of the crime, because identifying information fired from a TASER led police right to their door.

​

A Stradivarius violin estimated to be worth five million dollars was stolen in a violent and planned out assault on the streets of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

​

The violin player was shocked by a TASER while walking to his car following a concert and robbed of his precious instrument.

​

The TASER C2 puts out enough electricity to temporarily paralyze whomever is at the receiving end of it.

​

Each one of the TASER cartridges contains twenty-six small confetti like tags called AFIDs which are packed into the firing mechanism. When engaged, the AFIDs fly out of the TASER and scatter around the area where the device was utilized.

​

AFIDs stands for Anti Felon Identification System. The TASER International company has utilized them in their products since the beginning.

​

"What it is doing is preventing people from doing crimes," says TASER Vice President Steve Tuttle.

​

"It tells the owner, if you do, you're putting twenty to thirty of these out there," Tuttle says while holding up a business card.

​

Those 'business cards' were right there at the scene of the crime in Milwaukee just waiting for police to pick them up. It took a few days, but cops tracked down three people who have been arrested in connection with the theft.

​

"(TASER was) immediately contacted by Milwaukee Police and the FBI and we were given a number to trace," says Tuttle. "There's a ninety-eight percent chance that when you deploy this, good luck, because we're going to catch you."

Simple, no-brainer, everyone benefits.

In light of the heinous actions of the NSA, I'm not going to trust the Feds with something that purposefully provides them with more information about my guns, or bullets.They are simply untrustworthy.

The whole article is data. Not sure what you think data is.Do you mean the actual pieces of data from the study?No I can not give you that, but the article is data and provides data.

WTF?What's with the juvenile posturing?

Now you're just being disingenuous. You, the unsupported assertion police, are now accepting unsupported assertions as "data".I guess its all good as long as you like what you hear. And you have the gall to berate us for acting like creationists. lulzWelcome back to being ignored, troll.

Strawman? or did you not read or not comprehend any of it?
The article did not talk about bicycle accidents at school did it?If you say that you're ultimate goal is saving kids lives, and then you focus on things that will save less lives, then you're either stupid or lying.But then again you never said you had a goal of saving kids lives did you?

That is data. Maybe data you do not like but it is data.

The terms evidence, data and raw data can be ambiguous. Theodoric is citing the results of a study and calling them evidence, while it seems that Catholic Scientist wants to see raw data but is also calling that evidence.--Percy

Theo is citing a news report on a study that hasn't been released yet.I don't care who you are, that don't pass as "data".But yes, of course we would want to look at the raw data.Since when did we start accepting unsupported assertions?

Sooner.

More of a grimace, but certainly the irony would have a certain level of black humor. The law of unintended consequences will always produce some results counter to the intentions. Curiously I can be focused on bicycle safety at the same time -- not just for kids but for all cyclists, which is increasing as more people move away from fossil fuels.

It isn't unsupported. The author of the study is presenting the results of his study.
Are you claiming that Prof Daniel Webster, director of the Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research is misrepresenting the raw data? Why would he put his reputation at risk and lie?I cannot believe you are going this far out on a limb to call this unsupported assertions when this is going to published in the next issue of the Journal of Urban Health.I will go along with your sudden need that everything has to be published in order to be data. Lets hold off until this is published and then you can tell me how it is unsupported and is meaningless.You can do a web search on this study and there is a lot of data on it already.This again goes to my argument that rightwingers are no different than creos. You can do a web search on this study and there is a lot of data on it already. Of course you will not, and you will continue to deny the results and scream. No data, no data.

But we're talking about those Moms and Mayors...
