There was a news story on TV just now that said police in Victoria (Australia) weren't going to be issued Tasers because they were too trigger-happy. The evidence for this? Police bullets there have killed 30 people.....in 20 years. Yea, they sound as if they're just running around shooting people like madmen. For comparison, police in Mesa, Arizona killed 5 people in 2008 alone, with a population about 1/10 that of Victoria.
