Stun guns are normally an electroshock weapon which are able to temporarily disable a would be assailant or attacker using electric shock. There are some stun guns which when used the user will need to be close to their attacker in order for them to be effective and there are others which can be used from a distance. However, when ever using a stun gun a person will need to make sure that it makes contact with the other person’s body. (more…)

I don’t know why the the police are surprised that scumbags are attacking the elderly and disabled. They will always go after the weak. That’s why its important to be strong even if you have to carry something extra to give you that strength…like a pepper spray or stun gun — no matter your age.

In Cincinnati Police Detectives say criminals are now attacking disabled people and the elderly.

Investigators said it’s unusual that crooks are targeting those who can’t fight back, and what’s even more outrageous is that they still do it even if they only get away with a few dollars. (more…)

The story below is about someone who did something that I can really identify with. I know this is vigilantism and frowned up. But, sometimes a man’s got to do what a man’s got to do!

A French Valley (California) father charged with tying up and using a stun gun on a man who sent an explicit photo to his 17-year-old daughter struck a plea deal Wednesday, according to the Riverside County district attorney’s office.

William Frederick Atwood, 46, pleaded guilty to one count of false imprisonment and another of assault with a firearm, office spokesman John Hall said. Atwood had been charged with multiple counts, including felony assault and making criminal threats.

Atwood faces three years probation and 128 days of weekends in the custody of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department, Hall said. Those in the weekend custody program typically spend time in jail, on work detail or are placed under home monitoring.

William Atwood, left, pleaded guilty to binding and using a stun gun on a man who sent an explicit photo to his teenage daughter.

In exchange for the guilty pleas, most of the charges were dropped. If Atwood completes his probation with no problems, he could seek to have his felony convictions reduced to misdemeanors, Hall said.

Authorities said Atwood lured Justin Moore, of Temecula, to his home on Jan. 10 last year after Moore sent Atwood’s daughter a picture of his genitals.

In court, Moore testified that when he went to Atwood’s home, he expected to discuss the photo and maybe have dinner. Instead, authorities said Atwood fired a shotgun blast over Moore’s car and ordered Moore to strip to his boxers.

Atwood then bound Moore with zip ties and shocked him on the neck with a stun gun, police said. Atwood also threatened to bury Moore on the Pechanga Indian Reservation, authorities said.

After about an hour, authorities said, Atwood turned Moore over to police, saying Moore was trespassing.

Atwood’s lawyer said his client believed Moore peered into another daughter’s window in the early morning hours within a few days of when the photo was sent. Atwood also filed a police report accusing Moore of sending pornography to a minor.

The only difference between me and Mr. Moore is that I don’t think I would be shocking him on the neck!

I don’t believe this will be a practical self defense product for the regular person, but it is interesting.

The Armstar Bodyguard is like a hands-free version of a stun gun.

David Brown came up with the bodyguard idea seven years ago after a mountain lion mauled three people in California. He realized the new tool could be used — not only for personal self-defense — but also by the police and military.

“It works as a defensive shield. It works like baton,” Brown said.

“You’ll see a flashlight is built into it. You’ll see a laser built into it and then there’s also a video camera that provides live video streaming and broadcasts it back,” explained Andrew Quintero, Armstar’s president. “The original ideas that went into this started to evolve. A lot of that was done in a thinktank environment at Kevin Costner’s house.”

Costner is a financial backer of the bodyguard tool.

“They’ll start at about a $1,000 and go up depending on how much stuff you want to go into it,” Quintero said.

The tool is just coming out of the testing stage.

The cost is going to be high and I just don’t see someone going to the store at night with this on their arm.

The following story shows that thieves are not the brightest members of society. Stun guns are great for self defense, but I’m not sure how effective they are for robbing banks. Actually I’m pretty sure they are not effective at all!

The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office says 22-year-old Dureco Brown walked into Bank Of America on New Warrington Road with a stun gun about 9:20 Monday morning.

“Brown displayed a stun gun and demanded money from one of the tellers,” said Deputy Chris Welborn. “He then jumped over the counter, grabbed the teller’s purse and ran out of the bank.”

Deputies on patrol saw Brown get into a taxi. They were able to stop the taxi and arrest Brown.

Brown was booked into the Escambia County Jail on charges of theft, robbery and resisting arrest.

I’m sure he will be back on the streets soon to try this again.
