46. We had that worry and others back then

And yeah, it did worry me a bit (not so much AIDS as other things). We kept gloves on us and got regular tests. Like I said elsewhere here - it is a judgment call that an officer needs to be able to back up because tasers can be deadly.

They have their place and there needs to be a lot more oversight and education, as well as stricter regulations on the use of them (I am thinking citizen review boards and such like when a gun is discharged).
