How will 30,000 coppers share the 10,000 tasers between them?

Mark, 15,000 will be off sick, 10,000 will be completing forms and 5,000 of the Tasers will have been lost or stolen...

PS It won't be long before we read about the first mugging using a Taser...

How long before home made tasers appear?

Actually, if one-in-three coppers has a taser, it would make for a great spoof of that 'Are you feeling luck, punk?' scene.

Scenario: Two coppers have cornered suspect.

PC#1 "I know what you're thinking. There are two of us, but only one in three coppers has a taser. So who has it? Is it me?"

PC#2 "Or is it me?"

PC#1 "Or is it Sgt Dawkins, who's just popped out to the pie shop?"
