In the gun range at the Buffalo Grove Police Department, officers from several suburban police departments were testing the new technology, known as the "BolaWrap."
Wrap Technologies was showing its hand-held remote restraint device that fires an 8-foot Kevlar tether at a range of up to 25 feet.

Trouble is, in this modern age of drug abuse the pain often takes hours to reach the brain.

I noticed cops like to use their feet as attitude adjusters when I was young and foolish.

Feet were easier. The batons were a pain in the ass to get out of their "holster".

the batons have been done away with here since just after the rodney King beating. They use bare hands and pepper spray, occasionally a taser.

Not arguing for or against, but seems it would work best on legs which are usually closer togetherQuote from: "cc"

That thing looks like it would hurt, imagine like a fish hook digging into your leg. Suck even more with shorts on.Quote from: "Blazor"
Think it's a good thing for the police, encourges the suspect to stop squirming else they'll end up tearing their own flesh, lol.

Dont seem right lol. Kinda like those attack dogs, just grab and start biting the shit outta them. What if you are innocent, and picked out as the wrong guy. Depends on the crime too I suppose, how badly one needs to be caught.
These seem like they would work lol.....

Nice! For some odd reason, nunchucks are verboten in Canada. Just one of those stupid laws similar to the switchblade ban, which makes no sense! (Although at least some US States have now permitted legal switchblade ownership, which is a good thing!)

I can own it in my house, but I cant carry it "unless Im going to a tournament or karate class". I use to carry the big 14"ers my sensai gave me before he moved away, and I got pulled over once. They said I wasnt allowed to carry them, and I showed them my karate membership card at the time, thats when they said that was the only time I could carry them. Use to be no big deal, I would spin on this huge rock in front of the apartment complex, and was told I was the next white boy Bruce Lee lol. Then right before I became an adult, Mary Sue Terry I think it was, saw too many Kung Fu movies, and banned all the traditional Martial Arts weapons from being carried pretty much.

Lol it would suck if they ended up shooting that thing on some innocent person, but chances are the police won't consider using it as long as they comply. Mean while people that test teh police's patience, hurt innocent folks or run away from them won't get any pity from me, lol.
