What is Pepper Spray?
Pepper spray, oleoresin capsicum (OC), is a natural substance derived from the oily resins found in cayenne and other varieties of pepper. Contact with OC in a sprayed mist induces an immediate and intense burning sensation of the skin but especially impacts the eyes causing them to slam shut, burn, tear, swell. Also, the mucous membranes of the nose, throat, and sinuses burn, swell and make breathing difficult. In fact, even though tear gas is fairly nasty, it does not have the same inflammation and swelling effects of OC. Plus OC will not degrade over time like tear gas. People under the influence of drugs or who are otherwise oblivious to pain may be able to keep their eyes open when sprayed with tear gas but not so with OC. When sprayed in the eyes, the eyes will involuntarily slam shut whether they feel pain or not. This temporary blindness causes fear and disorientation allowing you to escape and get help.
What is a Taser?
Medical and police studies, as well as AI themselves, have shown that TASER technology is among the safest choices available to halt violent situations that pose a safety risk to an officer, suspect or innocent citizens. Local law enforcement agencies determine individual use of force policy. The ACLU and AI position that a TASER should only be used by a police officer as a direct response to deadly force is a position that will lead to greater injuries and deaths to both police and suspects. Police officers on scene are best able, highly trained and equipped to determine the proper use of force required based on the totality of circumstances in response to any given situation. Numerous independent medical and law enforcement studies have re-affirmed the life saving and injury reduction value of TASER technology.
TASER technology saves lives every day
Numerous medical and police studies have shown that TASER systems dramatically reduce injuries to both officers and suspects, and the use of TASER technology is proven to reduce the number of police shootings and use of lethal force. To date, TASER International estimates over 6,000 lives have been saved by the use of TASER technology.
What is a Stun Gun?
A stun gun is a hand held, electrical self defense device that uses high voltage to stop an attacker. Touching a person with the prongs on the gun quickly immobilizes the attacker by causing intense pain and loss of muscle control (see "What are the effects of a stun gun?"). However, because the amperage is very low, no serious or permanent injury is inflicted. They are used by police departments, security agencies, and individuals desiring protection against attack. They have been proven to be an excellent defensive device as they have incredible stopping power and yet remain non-lethal. Typically they operate on one or two 9-volt batteries and range from 85,000 volts to 625,000 volts.
