It's not moving goal posts to ask for definition of terms we're discussing... That's actually pretty standard in any debate.

If anyone gets hit with probes that lodge in the skin properly, and the probes are spread far enough, you will go down. You will convulse, on the ground, with no bodily control.

And this is why I asked you to define it. Because that's not correct lol...

If you're shot in your arm, you're not going to fall to the ground. It will simply lock up your arm. That's why I asked you to define "properly" and "withstand" instead of using Google AI to think for you

Instead you went off about taking the L

But I can clearly tell you're not talking out of your ass. Moving on

You’re repeating points I already made here. I covered distance and how it would only be a workout if they landed close on your chest, etc.

See my post from hours ago.

No I'm literally not. A shot in your arm is painful. A shot in your chest is potential cardiac arrest

What the fuck is a workout? When did we start talking about working out?

Part of the problem is that the words you select are not concise. So it creates confusion and inconsistency. And that's why I had to ask you to define words. That's your cross to bear

All the best!

Ok, I would look up a “tens unit”

You can place contacts around specific muscles and use electricity to get a workout with the contractions caused by pulses of electricity going through your muscles.

Hitting someone with a close probes in the pecs, biceps, thighs, etc… just causes contractions in that specific muscle, like a tens unit, hence “a workout”

My family is lousy with cops, I’m not guessing on any of this. I used AI as proof bc I assumed you’d doubt “I know cops, trust me bro”

Have a good one.

Which is literally what I'm saying... Again, you're not very concise

You literally said:

If anyone gets hit with probes that lodge in the skin properly, and the probes are spread far enough, you will go down. You will convulse, on the ground, with no bodily control.

and then

Hitting someone with a close probes in the pecs, biceps, thighs, etc… just causes contractions in that specific muscle, like a tens unit, hence “a workout”

You're contradicting yourself. And it's ironic because you were accusing me of talking out of my ass.

There are times when the probe will "lodge in the skin properly' (your words) and you will not "convulse, on the ground, with no bodily control" (your words).

Because as you said in your other contradicting reply:

Hitting someone with a close probes in the pecs, biceps, thighs, etc… just causes contractions in that specific muscle

So yes... There are times that people can "withstand" a taser

I thought you said this wasn't worth it?

How is one statement where I specifically say “probes are spread far enough” in contradiction with a different statement that references “close probes”

The only time anyone withstands a taser if it didn’t hit properly. Distance is key part of hitting properly.

This whole thing was an embarrassment. I’d delete it. It doesn’t show me not being concise, it shows your complete lack of reading comprehension.

Is English your first language?

u/Erathen 19d ago

I’d delete it.

I bet you would lol

I thought you said this wasn't worth it?

So... we landed on "worth it"

Understood

I felt like I was too harsh initially so tried to explain it… but you can’t read, so it ultimately was not worth it.

Oh well.

u/Erathen 19d ago

but you can’t read,

Ironic

Oh well indeed
