I guess the definition changes with the region.
“You want something that can get painful, try a pair of Smith and Wesson Leg Irons.”
No thanks. I’ll take your word for it! :)
Besides. My legs are chaffed enough already.
:0)
They can be nasty buggers. Cuffs and leg irons in the hands of professionals are just tools. The same in the hands of mental midgets such as this old woman are unjustified. Just so my little Kiwi buddy doesnt think that I approve of this old waste of skin doing this to a child, I dont, but, cuffs in the professional world are just another tool of the trade. The big problem I see here is that different settings have different rules. Career criminals and bond jumpers are being given more rights than citizens. My take is, that if you dont want to get hurt, then stay out of trouble and show up for your courts, otherwise, you earn what you get.
