  • Tasers versus Stun Guns - Most people beleive there is no difference between a stun gun and a Taser except for its name. However, there are a few major differences between the two. For one, stun guns do not shoot anything work only on direct contact.

This is done by shooting two electrical darts up to a range of 15 feet. The darts are still connected to the unit by wires that conduct the electrical current into the assailant's body when the trigger is depressed.

  • Self Defense-Sorry Wrong Number! - Common criminals who specialize in assaults have long used the military principle of surprise when they do their dirty work. They sneak up on women or men from behind and before you know it they have their arm around your neck in a stranglehold demanding your money. The threat posed by these everyday thugs is growing. Rape and assault by thugs with or without a weapon is getting more common.

I came to this reality after receiving a phone call from a friend of one of my clients, informing me that my client had been severely beaten by her ex-husband during an exchange of their two children in the courtyard of the local police department. My client is currently in intensive care and is unconscious. I am told by my client's family members that her jaw is broken, her left ear was almost severed off, and she suffers from swelling of her brain.
