Check out this Canadian site, No More Tasers, that keeps track of taser deaths around the world. I know tasers are supposed to reduce police injury and civilian deaths, but doesn't it seem to you that the police taser people they would be very unlikely to actually shoot?
The taser is also used in place of the billyclub. So without the taser, I think there would probably be more use of clubs to subdue those resisting arrest.
