What about the bullet-firing type?

Stun guns aren't for public, police say

"They're not safe," said Democrat Sherron Franklin, "and if (some) police officers are having problems with them, we can only imagine what kind of problems citizens would have."


She is talking about stun guns, but just consider for a moment that this quote could just as easily apply to the standard sidearm pistol.

Stun guns are only lethal a small percentage of the time, while bullet guns are highly lethal and meant to be so. Police officers have problems with them. We don't have to imagine what kind of trouble citizens get into with guns.
