Yes and No. If you mean TAZER training to be certified to use/carry TAZER than yes. To use a thing you must have the thing used on you first to know the effect and understand what you’re doing to the person. If as a matter of fact every day training at most Academies ..no, (unless every Officer must be certified to use TAZER on that Department then yes again).


I think that if they are going to tase a suspect 11 times, they need to understand what being tased 11 times while being kicked in the nuts feels like.
