Oh Snap! The NYPD Has All New Tasers, Delinquents Beware!

Watch out bros far and wide: The NYPD has a new toy to play with and they may just test it out on your disorderly conduct ass. Find out more about the Taser X26 after the jump.

Weighing a fraction of as much as the old school style Tasers and with a “greater incapacitating power,” the Taser X26 is bound to initiate a whole new crop of folks into the ‘Don’t Tas me bro-therhood.’ Best part of this thing: it sprays confetti-like ID tags. WTF? There should be absolutely nothing remotely festive about a Taser gun being fired. But if you’re not already concerned about walking the streets of New York with, so far, 15 of these bad boys floating aroun, you will be after checking out the promotional video for it.

Please note that improve officer safety and avoid litigation are both before save lives. If that doesn’t tell you all you need to know, then I don’t know what will.
