Better check with the NRA when before going out of Florida, Cameron. Using that Taser without a concealed weapon permit will get you in more hot water that your tazed attacker, depending on the state, of course. AK, TX, UT and AZ may send you a thank you card for using it on a perp.
I always check the local laws when I take it out of state. Usually it doesnt require a permit being that a Taser is considered a "non lethal weapon" in most states. Its totally legal to carry it without a permit in Fl..as well as Portland and several other places I've taken it. In fact, since local police dont always know all the laws, I print out a copy of the statute that says it is allowed in whatever area I'm carrying it and keep it in my purse in case I get pulled over. Came in handy in Portland after an altercation in a club me and a friend were working in. I called the cops on them and the a-hole bouncer tried to get ME in trouble (even though HE was the one who assaulted my friend)by telling cops I had it. The cops were happy to tell him he was a dickhead and that I was breaking no law by carrying it. You just have to be over 18, have no felonies on your record and not use it against an officer.
Hats off to you Ms. Keys. Your industry is not known for researching and acting accordingly, but you clearly did and do. Taz away!
For curiosity's sake, from your experience, do you need a core body shot or will any part of the body do? What is the effect of clothes-- jackets limit the effect? How long is a taz'ed down? Should device bondage use your unit or a less powerful one? TIA.
