The Federalist Papers ^ | 2/4/15 | Kimberly Morin

Browsing a California company’s Web site, Eickhoff found pictures and videos of an odd-looking, blaze-orange device docked on a normal handgun barrel. When a bullet fired, it melded with an attached projectile the size of a ping-pong ball that flew with enough force to knock a person down, maybe break some ribs, but not kill him, the product’s makers said — even at close range.

Were I still an active LEO and ordered to carry this new toy, the Chief would have my resignation papers on his desk in about five minutes.

Someone needs to develop the Glow Rods that the police used in Demolition Man. Everything will be just peachy then.

There are many less then lethal options for Police Officers. The handgun is MEANT to be the lethal option. This is the stupidest idea and piece of equipment I have ever seenn,

So they get one shot with a rubber ball eh?

Morons.

What the ferguson cops should do is if they get charged or assaulted by a black guy anyway, they should raise their service weapon to their own head and fire a round into their own heads, thus doing the world a favor by killing themselves and letting the black live.

Maybe it is time to abandon Ferguson and just let the ferals kill each other. The police can sit at the edge of town and take notes.

why don’t they have guns which shoot out a flag with “BANG!” (not in cursive) typed on it.

oh...wait... they thought of that but figured criminals can’t read.

I have to laugh at all these attempts to appease the left with non-lethal force. Does anyone think they will show the same restraint if they gain control of the country? When they are busy building their socialist utopia, they will not use pepper spray and pop guns. Brains will be blown out, and throats will be slit if you dare stand in the way of the workers paradise.

The question that remains to be answered....Can the female officers be trusted with that thing?
