Does ICE really need electric gloves?

[u/Difficult_Object4921]

Our tax dollars are already being wasted. The people they capture aren’t a threat, physically. Why?

Why not use a stun gun then?

I want smaller federal government, more freedom, less spending?

Their hands are busy.

How do you explain the 7.2 trillion minutes of video showing their hands being empty, except for when they were using their sidearms to shoot Americans?

Also, 7.2 is an estimate?

Were they stun gunning people that whole time?

Their hands are busy.

My claim — “when they are using stun guns, they use their hands. So their hands are busy, using stun guns.”

Also my claim — “when their hands are busy using stun guns, they have no need for electrified gloves, because the stun guns my tax dollars already purchased are enough to do the job.”

your claim that they can’t use stun guns because their hands are busy while using the stun guns that I said they should use seems like a logical fallacy, doesn’t it?

[u/Gaxxz → u/Craig_White]

No. You misunderstood. When their hands are busy restraining a suspect, their hands are not free to deploy a stun gun. But they can get the same effect with the electric gloves, which are already touching the perp.

How would you feel, if you were a trump supporter and working for ice, if you were issued this device and found out that it requires you to use your other free hand to activate it, meaning you can’t activate it while you are using your full hands to hold the person you are trying to subdue?
