I don't like it.
Cops were issued tasers as a less than lethal alternative. How many videos or news stories have we seen where the cop decided to use a taser rather than diplomacy or handcuffs? Now they want to extend their range to 100 feet? Fuck that. If someone is truly a threat at 100 feet, shoot them.

For every 1 instance of abuse, you have 100 situations where it could be used properly... The problem that we have is that those 100+ situations where it's used properly don't make good news.

One could argue that for every 1 instance of abuse that makes the news there were 100 situations where abuse took place and no cameras were present. Why tase someone from 50 - 100 feet? If they are threatening lives, take them out. If not, I see no reason to give cops another excuse to pull a trigger.
