    Yah, maybe I am not stating my point clearly enough. The law specifies "initially used", and with a Taser type device, to use it on a second person, it would have to have fresh "cartridges" loaded.

    (ii) The device contains an identification and tracking system that, when the device is initially used, dispenses coded material traceable to the purchaser through records kept by the manufacturer, and the manufacturer of the device has a policy of providing that identification and tracking information to a police agency upon written request by that agency. However, this subdivision does not apply to a launchable device that is used only by law enforcement agencies.
    For that requirement to be met by a "direct contact" type of device, it would have to be adapted to only fire once with the marker, or have a supply on board to cover it for the initial use on the next person.

    With this bill, they are adding the "stun gun", and then defining it so that it stands alone.

    The mere citizenry tasers are a one-time deal. Confetti and one dose of juice per cartridge. I guess this is why they are referred to at times as a shoot-drop-run taser.

    WTF, Over!

    Why did they pull this out of the Judiciary Committee and put it in the Committee on Tax Policy?

    It only has one sponsor. The move could be to kill the bill or to insure he vote for something that the Chairman of the tax committee and House leadership wants. She has recently been touting the new tax/spend plan for more money to the roads. Coincidence?

    I basically had the exact same thought when I posted it this morning!
    Then, I wondered if they are planning on taxing the "luxury" of having a stun gun…or if it is just a mistake...

    I am questioning the possession of a stun gun by persons 21 and older. That leaves the 18-21 college chicks swinging in the wind or am I not reading it correctly.
