Taser
Tasers are so safe that if you just point one at a cop, three of them will shoot you dead.
To be clear, I don’t think the problem is that the guy got shot. The problem is that the police want to use a device on us whenever we even use passive resistance, but will respond with deadly force if you threaten to use it on them.
[…] Really […]
They probably wouldn’t like you trying to stab them with a pencil, either. I don’t know what kind of Taser it was, but I’ve seen them look an awful lot like a handgun. Pointing a handgun-looking thing at police, after you delivered a beat-down to a COP? That’s a shootin.

Chicks on patrol: usually a bad idea
Not training COPs well enough to enable them to retain a weapon during a struggle: also a bad idea
Breaking out the Taser when you’re in baton range: also a bad idea
