BEWARE OF THE COPS’ NEW WEAPON: TASERS
Note to cops: Joe Public, not criminals, in Bersih 4
Legit: I am 60 plus and I have heart illness. Whether they use Tasers or not, I am going to Bersih 4. I do not mind dying for a good cause. The nation’s good comes first.

YOURSAY ‘Whether they use Tasers or not, I am going to Bersih 4.’
Police won’t use Tasers for Bersih 4 rally
First off, Noor Rashid Ibrahim should know that people can die from Tasers even if the officers have been trained how to use these stun guns.
Secondly, Tasers are not designed to be used against protesters but against those who behave violently, generally people posing a risk to the public or police officers.
So Noor Rashid, if your men use these Tasers on rally attendees, be prepared for criminal action taken against you. But of course you already know that already.
What you are really trying to do is scare Malaysians from attending the Bersih rally this weekend. Shame on you. Your behaviour is unbecoming of your position as a senior police officer.
Legit: I am 60 plus and I have heart illness. Whether they use Tasers or not, I am going to Bersih 4. I do not mind dying for a good cause. The nation’s good comes first.
Peacemaker: The deputy IGP flatters himself when he claims “police allow for freedom of expression as well as freedom of movement”.
These freedoms are constitutionally guaranteed freedoms and not concessions handed out by the police. Even the police have to abide by the constitution.
Nil: Not only Tasers should not be used, all riot control tactics should not be employed either. The Bersih 4 rally is a peaceful protest. The police should be there to assist and help maintain order.
Pisasu 7: The people who will march this weekend are from different walks of life. Many are 50 years and above and take part because the policies of this unpopular government do not have the support of the majority.
Sixty percent of MPs probably used ‘tainted’ money to get elected, especially in the villages where ignorant folk were given goodies.
Using Taser guns can cause death to those who are prone to high blood pressure or other ailments. Use them on criminals, not protesters who did not take donations from Arabs.
No taser guns for Bersih 4, deputy IGP says

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 25 — Deputy Inspector-General of Police Datuk Seri Noor Rashid Ibrahim denied today taser-like stun guns will be used against potential lawbreakers at this weekend’s Bersih 4 rally, but admitted that the authorities are already equipped and trained to use such a weapon.
“We already have it in our possession… but we are not using it for Bersih,” he told a news conference here.
Noor Rashid was quoted yesterday by Chinese vernacular paper Oriental Daily as saying the police might use tasers to neutralise participants at the Bersih 4 rally if the situation warranted it.

Police might expand their anti-riot arsenal to include taser guns for this weekend’s Bersih 4.0 rally if the situation warrants it.
Deputy inspector-general of police Noor Rashid Ibrahim said today protesters might be stunned with an electric charge if they riot, become violent or resist arrest.
“In any situation, the police will follow their standard operating procedure (SOP).
“If the situation needs to be controlled, police will use the tasers to stun the suspect, in line with their SOP,” he said as reported by Oriental Daily.
Rashid said police have a small number of tasers at the moment and those authorised to use them have undergone professional training.
Police grade stun guns have a range of 35 feet.
It fires two hooks, which then deliver severe jolts of electricity to temporarily incapacitate the target.
