Apparently this is on the ballot on November 2nd. Whats the point? Criminals will just use
air rifles.
COLUMBIA — If Columbia voters decide on Nov. 2 to outlaw Taser use in the city by approving Proposition 2, private residents as well as law enforcement would be prohibited from using them.
Tasers and stun guns are available for private use, and they can be purchased at sporting goods and electronics stores for $50 to $360, depending on the model.
Because they are sold as self-defense weapons, a ban on Tasers and similar devices could violate the Second Amendment, which has been interpreted to guarantee individuals the right to keep and bear arms for lawful uses such as self-defense.
