What about stun guns?

What are your thoughts on stun guns? Should anyone be allowed to have them? Should they be required to have a permit? Should you be able to open carry or conceal carry a stun gun?

  • They can't kill someone, well I guess they can, but it would take a certain set of circumstances that are highly unlikely (from what I understand). I would love to get one. I don't know how regulated they are in my state.

  • I'd rather not have to be that close in order to neutralize the threat. I prefer a 38.

  • sarasmommy, a stun gun isn't a gun.

  • I wish I had one at work. Sometimes we get some crazy people come to the walk up window at the pharmacy.
    At least, well, I hope it would be less likely to kill someone than a gun.

  • I have this one, which is a functioning flashlight that will zap the shit out of someone if I flip the switch the other way.

  • Do you even need a permit for a stun gun? I think I would rather have a handgun.

  • I don't know if it's different state to state, but I didn't need a permit for mine. I didn't really need anything for my handgun either though. Here in Nevada, you just need to register the gun.

  • I think they just make you pee yourself. Change your underwear & you're good to go! LOL! No harm in that!
