Ypsi police to start using TASERS

Ypsi Police Chief Matt Harsberger said the city will buy 45 of the devices with a grant from the Feds for 25 large and the rest in drug forfeiture cash.

Not a bad idea. Anything that can cut down on potential loss of life with a simple disabling weapon rather than a lethal weapon is a good way to go. Maybe Washtenaw County LAWNET officers who have an annoying tendency to shoot unarmed people in the back could use one or two.
