There are more and more countries that are allowing local law enforcement and security personnel to use stun guns for protection and to keep violence from escalating.
But the fact that they are also deemed non lethal, criminals have used them instead of a gun, probably in hopes that the court system would be a bit more lenient if they are caught.
So, this is why many states, counties and countries have incorporated stun gun laws that have placed restrictions and regulations and on size, usage and/or registration of stun guns to the general public, making It your responsibility to check on stun gun laws in your area.
You must know and abide by your local stun gun laws. Ignorance of stun gun law is never a viable defense.
