Thank you for the laugh. Sorry I could only give you 1 thumbs up.

Serious question: Who gave what answer? I would see certain people not even looking but just pressing a random button...

Tasers aren't a replacement for guns and were never intended to be. They're an option for use when there are other people around/behind the person being taken down--it minimizes the risk of harm to everyone else.

“Tazers are inaccurate” yes they are because one some people actually aren’t affected by them and two both tazer prongs have to go in to the skin to make it work so sometimes it doesn’t work specially if someone had thick clothing

Tazer has the same accuracy as a gun?

Spiral Jumper Kudos to your brother. I hope he never has to discharge his gun.

G Washington Yeah I don't think I'll do anything of the sort. What I will do is this; tell you to go fuck your self. So, go fuck yourself, Buddy.

G Washington you are aware that white people murder as well, right? You won't be able to find a murder-free ethnicity, culture, country, region, religion, or any other group that encompasses many people. Trying to spout statistics is nonsensical in this case. You can't justify shooting an unarmed person based solely on the probability that they might be carrying a gun and are dangerous. Precautions are one thing... preemptive shooting is murder.

+G Washington I'm gonna make a channel that shows all kilsl from peopel who are 1m75, tanned, with green eyes, and then you're gonna think they're the only ones commiting crimes... Do you get my point or are you too stuck on your ideas to ever think you're wrong? The second one? Yeah, thought so.

Spiral Jumper Bless you

uhm, Plenty of countries police forces do not carry guns actually. In fact when police do not carry guns, most criminals stop carrying them as well, as they have no reason to. In cases in which guns are involved, they have rapid response teams, basically swat teams which do bring guns.

i cant wait for cops to not have guns , i get to rob everyones home knowing they dont have a weapon them selves , wat u gonna do call the cops on me? espicially 80% of california dont have weapons

bluntino But why are you hurting others? If the only thing between you and hurting another person is the possibility of getting killed then you have some work to do on your moral compass

@@willb586 well maybe it's pretty easy when cops can't have guns

I also think the attitude towards guns should be changed. I always feel really uncomfortable when I hear someone say something like "I'd have shot them" because it shouldn't be that easy to talk about killing or injuring someone. A lot of people who own a gun say it's to protect them and their family, but if someone broke into my house, my first thought wouldn't be to grab a knife from the kitchen or something heavy, in fact I feel uncomfortable even thinking about it, my thoughts would be to go into the bathroom and lock the door or into a room with a window I can climb out or a place to hide. I just don't think that guns should be seen as something to keep you safe. They can be used for that purpose but only if you threaten the one who's trying to harm you or actually injure or kill them, and I don't think those actions should be ones that make you feel safe.

tyler1234321 Please explain to me how you are going to make a taser outperforming a gun plz, plz explain. I do think cops need better self control when they are out there on the field, and have a better connect with the citizens but saying one end all solution like banning all guns doesnt help the problem and puts the officer at risk

Read up on other police forces. Japanese carry a range of non-lethal weapons that are very effective including a lasso hoop on a stick like animal catchers for grabbing knives and people. They are really good at it. Also they study martial arts and have to stay in shape. And they don't just drive around.

Yeah in a country where it is hard for criminals to get guns and lengthy sentences for being caught with one. The idea of a cop not having a gun in a country that has 100's of millions of guns is absurd.

@Aron M Not necessarily. Can call in the SWAT team which is what they already do whenever there's a gun fight. Where analysis has been done results are universal that cops having more powerful guns endangers the cops (psychologically them thinking they are badass encourages them to make bad decisions - see San Francisco case studies). Keeping up with the criminals doesn't help. Cops riding in cars do nothing to *prevent* crime, car just helps response. Boots on the ground, police walking regular beats, is the #1 thing that lowers crime (often through community involvement). It's been proven time and again even in this country; Baltimore cut crime in half doing it then they had their budget reduced ("no crime, so don't need money" some idiot said). But NRA and Prison industry funded a few cops to sue on the basis of "not feeling safe at work" (I shit you not - and that's the same tactic used on many police departments to force "upgraded" weapons). Here's a Washington Post article that explores that subject wapo.st/2znQayq

@Aron M The 2nd *Amendment* : meaning some goddam liberal changed the constitution! Nobody has talked about taking your guns away, where else will the criminals get them? And what militia are you a part of? _Accepting money from industries:_ Rockefeller said "he who pays the piper calls the tune" warning groups about accepting money. The problem is their corporate PR churns out the lines y'all repeat, they write the narrative, get the articles in the papers that can co-opt a legitimate grass roots movement. NRA is backed by weapons companies, just like our Congress. 2014 big rise in contributions from small donors to $945K out of their total $22 million operating fund, that doesn't include their $350 million PAC and estimated $180 million given to politicians on their behalf. That's $552 million, so *regular donors made up* *0.17% of the total* . You didn't follow up "nerve to bring up the prison industry" with anything. Didn't realize it is a nervy thing to discuss. Should I be scared? And we are a socialist country, that's what most of the Constitution was about, protecting _we the people_ from aristocratic (capitalist, that's what they were, because "capital" means wealth, not free trade) control. Corporations were banned in the Constitution unless specifically authorized for a specific task that was for 1 year, later 2, then 3, railroads got 7, then weapons companies got an ongoing status as long as we were in a "state of preparedness" for war. Oil companies were included as essential to preparedness. Then they got their friends in, and so on. Founders realized how dangerous it was (no humans responsible or punishable) in allowing moral responsibility to be set aside under the fiction of incorporation. It won't be easy to change the violence in our culture. It will take many things including you who say you believe guns=freedom. What about life, liberty, pursuit of happiness? Better than guns any day as a definition of freedom. *Economic inequality* , gap between rich and everyone else, corporate officers making 420 times what average employee gets, is the source of crime and violence. They need the guns to retain their fortunes, you want a gun to keep the scrap of a scrap you have left. All this has been proven knowledge for a hundred years (read any anthropologist or cultural analyst from 1900 on). They divide the poor (everyone but that very few) into competing camps so we all yell at each other. The "Middle Class" was always defined as those who served and implemented the interests of the wealthy; how we think of middle class only existed for a brief time, seriously from 1950-1980 (credit cards came in and though we had the trappings, the stuff, of a prosperous people, the clock of mounting debt was ticking). All labor rights you/we have were won from 1900-1940 by "Communists" here in America. The labor protests, collective action to guarantee rights (gov't's job but they were bought off so not doing it), were all accomplished by your socialists (and fire departments, police departments, schools, parks, etc). You screaming socialist like it's a bad word only means you've bought the line the rich have fed you. And every single wealthy family has made its money by ripping off the government, us. Look it up. They want a small government, one with no oversight, inspectors, regulation for public safety, *just check writers* and plenty of them. This is the most communist/socialist country that ever existed but it works for corporate welfare only. Check it all for yourself. Don't have to believe anything, just follow the money. Put down your gun and get out your calculator.

No max, the cops don’t decided what ammo they get the state and county decide, and that money comes from taxpayers. I guess forcing people to give up their money so that MS-13 Juanito can survive after he beat his wife is worth it though

Patrick Neill maybe not worth wife beaters life but it is definitely worth 6 year old little Timmy’s life

*Colbert Also, you realize you can watch clips of The Late Show on KZfaq, right?

IceTeaGrenade Stephen

IceTeaGrenade Shut the fuck up, people are always saying millennials are bad but although that’s true it’s because of the previous generation. So basically we are a bad generation thanks to yours

Comparing this to a discount Colbert Show is like comparing someone fit to be in an elected office to trump

I think you're being charitable

Good read. Thank you.

If you kill someone in the US, you still get investigated by law enforcement to determine if there was a justifiable use of force. If there is a determination that you did act unjustifiably, you will be charged with murder or in some cases, manslaughter. Stop being stupid.

andyrihn1 yes!!!

No no no... Perhaps you should watch the video of the protester who took a police safety course.. The same dude screaming at cops for control, pulled his gun within a second on over half the situations.. You people have no idea what its like being a cop, you risk your life everyday. Dumbasses like you need to respect that, and listen to what the fuck they say in a situation, because they are looking for the best solution with no violence.

andyrihn1 no cops shouldn't have guns

22 shhkadeeww perhaps you should do your homework and realize that in 2015 42 police officers were shot and killed www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/12/29/461402091/number-of-police-officers-killed-by-gunfire-fell-14-percent-in-2015-study-says Meanwhile cops killed 986 people in the same year www.washingtonpost.com/national/final-tally-police-shot-and-killed-984-people-in-2015/2016/01/05/3ec7a404-b3c5-11e5-a76a-0b5145e8679a_story.html?.597c787204eb And sure it's dangerous being a cop but you know what's more dangerous than that, being a construction work cause again in that same year, 2015, 937 construction workers died in workplace fatalities www.osha.gov/oshstats/commonstats.html So if cops wanna run they mouth 'bout being scared for they lives then maybe those same tough guys should find another job cause the numbers don't back up what they saying

Nicolas Young so if a man goes on a shooting spree and the cops dont have guns guess what we cant stop his shooting spree

Riley Peeler some of it is cruelty, the videos are infuriating especially when you consider the legal protection police dogs have. when the state can kill your animal and you can't kill theirs with being charge like you killed a person there is something wrong.

patrick mcgarrey yeah I was implying that it wasn't always justified like shooting a Chihuahua isn't that's why I didn't mention stuff like that but I'll be more clear next time.

Riley Peeler and part of it is that there's literally no repercussions for doing it and some cops are sadistic assholes with the ability to kill dogs with impunity.

Trump should absolutely have Twitter because that's how he's going to keep the entire world aware of what a big fat lame idiotic FAILURE he is all the way to the elections in 2018 & 2020.,

... all the way to the elections when Trump WINS reelection and serves a full second term, giving liberals some shit on a plate to eat on Jan. 20 2025(the end of his second term). Care to wager?

You're an idiot and a piece of shit. Piss off.

Well, at least you know your math, you fucking moron...

Lol, not worth it. Save your salt for November 2020, when Trump wins again. Salt mines will reopen for you libtards.

yeah lmaoo

This surprised me too! Oh, and how young Cody looks

@@damunzy little baby boy

Kazuma - kun Hear Hear

If every cop quit after killing someone are society would be lawless because there would be nobody to uphold them

Probably whichever side has the more inspiring leader.

The lunatic asylum.

Timothy Deshawn - why not actively work to help both sides take out each other, recruit the moderates and use it as a way to get rid of both sides extremists. Manipulate it to be beneficial to society in the long run where people can talk and discuss and listen to both sides again.

As he pointed out in the video, we should be researching better non-lethal ways of stopping people before using the methods that are definitely a lot more lethal.

If I gave you the option of being tazed or shot which would you choose?, why?

Donald Harrison Suing the cop for bodily injury. That's the option I choose.

I don't think you'll be waiting 4 whole years.

Given the line of succession, I think that Jacquelyn may have to rely on this for the next 4-8 years.

"There's no way Trump is a candidate!" "There's no WAY Trump gets Nominated!" "AHHAHA, There's no way Trump Wins the Election..." "There's NO WAY he lasts 4 WHOLE years!" Liberals are so focused on being Liberals rather than focusing on embracing the Militant Left. lol Y'all are gonna keep losing elections.

I'm Sorry There are Neo-Confederates that HATE you for your Skin Color. I hope, As a Nation, we choose to rid ourselves of these traitors and Save the Country from a coup by treasonous fuckwads .

Matt N oh no, you think you'd win... Trump is gonna get 8 years as president because of you people's behavior and as a Latino this shit is fucking hilarious to me. What the fuck is a neoconservative? And how are they racist now?

LiamFVJ Yea the media here is trash.

Sure, but that has more to do with the state of society, the news are followers not tastemakers.

Yup, I'm starting to get really sick of it. I hate to use the whole 'flip the genders' card, but if people were making those articles about a woman in power people would be flipping their shit that she was only being reported on about her looks and what kind of socks she wears. I don't mind Trudeau, but all this shit about him being a dreamboat makes it seem like he's some kind of perfect PM when in reality a lot of people are upset with some of his decisions.

The thing is he is only decent looking. Average at best. I don't see the appeal really lol

Funny, from before his first election to today, a disturbing portion of the voting population knows far more about how Obama looks than his policies. Before he was first elected, late night shows had a field day going out and talking to voters, discovering very quickly that very few of them had any idea what sort of past experience in governing he had, what his policies were, or anything else. Let's just hope the Democrats don't realize just how shallow we all are, or next election they'll put forward a 35-year-old supermodel and we'll wind up spending 4 years under someone even less qualified than our current giant douche.

littleneon thats dumb lol

Yup That has happened actually

Joseph Kloss don't dismiss psychology just because it isn't "lethal"

Glad you asked. Many European countries have single digit or even zero cops killing people every year and manage to be just as effective at stopping crime as American cops who shot over 1000 people in 2017. How do they do it? Let's look at your example of when a cop would NEED to shoot someone: It's wrong, you're wrong, and I can't believe you are this dumb. Beat cops don't charge in and bust up hostage situations in the first place. A hostage negotiation is handled by, yes, negotiation. Talking it out. They do exactly the thing you find so absurd. And you know what? Most other crimes can be handled this way. And are. Effectively. In lots of countries that aren't this one. This isn't some hypothetical situation, we can look at loads of examples of cops managing to not execute anyone in the streets and not be ANY less effective because of it. Google it. You moron.

Obviously the Swat team still has guns idiot.

Can y’all take a fucking chill pill for 2 seconds. Who gave anyone the write to fucking call other people’s morons and call their opinions right or wrong. You aren’t special for having an opinion, so stop being such assholes to each other. And being honest, I feel much more safer knowing that a cop can and will kill to protect me and my loved ones more than I feel with a cop who’s going to mace or taze my attacker, and I think that’s reason enough for them to have guns. I would rather be able to call a cop and know that I’ll be well protected than have a cop who won’t be able to stop someone wearing sunglasses and thick clothes.

Spec oh my god. You just completely missed his argument. Amazing. The whole argument is that if there's anyone who shouldn't have guns, it's cops. Because they're not supposed to shoot people. They're supposed to do the opposite. Just make a stunner.

I understand the argument. It's just based on the assumption that you can just make a magical stunner that never fails. A taser works based on pain and does not 'stun' by magical force. It can cause some muscle contractions, but you can't increase that effect, otherwise you'll have trouble with the heart, which is also a muscle, and there's already people dying of cardiac arrest by taser (arguably. It seems to require specific circumstances such as preexisting conditions). If you make the taser any more powerful, you've now invented the defibrillator. Fun fact: Defibritasers are already a thing. Somehow. Anyway, it just doesn't work like that. Noone has yet invented a method to quickly send someone into a state that is a) completely rendering him unable to act and b) non-lethal. It might not be possible. Sure, it's being worked on, as we speak. By companies who want to sell to the police. So this request is already being fulfilled, as was my argument. But so far, they haven't come up with anything, so any argument based on this are moot: 1) Do research! - This is moot because there's already people working on this, and the government WANTS that already. 2) Just make it! - This is moot because the research has not come up with a solution yet. There's noise-based devices, light-based devices, pain-based devices, muscle contraction based devices, heck, even net-based devices, but none have yet been proven to work nearly as well as a firearm. The taser might be the closest thing we have, and a thick jacket, drugs and/or a stubborn enough person are all it takes to defeat it. Yes, train police better so they use their tasers more often than their guns. But this first requires changes in society. Edit: For reference: I'm from a country in which the police have a reputation to rarely ever shoot, whenever anyone gets shot by a cop it makes immediate national news, even when absolutely clearly justified, such as a person running at an officer with an axe. People request tasers to replace guns here, too, but not based on lots of black people dying, but on random lunatics with axes dying. We have no gun problem. We still have cops on guns. It works.

Spec I love your response! I've tried to bring up these points before, the American gun culture that promotes a "shoot first, ask questions later," mentality. The ideas that flourish in society are going to hang around in your police agencies, because...your cops are civilians from your society. Along with that, cops are scared because people are scared of them, and people are scared of cops because cops are scared of them... a looping circle of fear resulting in trigger-happy cops and people too scared to do what they're told, or act erratically around police (even if they're not doing anything wrong). I work in law enforcement, and I've had calls from citizens terrified because the cops were knocking on their door..."What do I do?!??" Well, answer it...not answering it is making them more suspicious, like you could be hiding something. That's just one example. There's a name for the cycle that feeds itself like that, but I can't think of it :/ More and better training is always a plus, of course, and body cameras are loved by cops that don't plan on violating any rights. But finding more effective, non-lethal weapons has been at all the conventions, trying to sell tech to save lives and stop crime. The chiefs and other brass go to those sort of things and bring back a few new things to try all the time...but during the trials, they find it being less effective in some way or other against the possibility of the other person having a gun. Of course, the NRA is also at all of those conventions, selling "even better" guns, and holding cops by the balls really - most cops that I know are proud NRA members and gun rights...enthusiasts? They're not really activists...they just support it, yet fear everyone having them, but think it's their right to have them...but...they'll shoot you for having them. Hey, I think it's another one of those cycles! And it's all so very complicated...

Easier fix. Make cops fill out five forms for every bullet they fire. Also known as 'make bureaucratic red tape work for everyone'.

What I came to say. I don't fully disagree with Cracked... but I think the "We can Make ____ better!" is a shit reasoning.

Jeez that rant kinda got away from me. Hopefully Cracked or Cody will understand that I'm not trying to be disrespectful to them or to anyone in any way if they take the time to read my comment. I enjoyed the video and even "liked" it, but the whole gun controversy always gets to me and people are too biased and full of themselves to even try to see both sides of the conflict.

I think u Feel Right But U might have also missed the Point here. Most Citizens Don't have a Gun But Every Cop has 1 and Sum Mase or a Taser too. But The Lines between Justifiable Murder are a little too murky for a youtube post but I feel u, This is just theoretical but I do think they need to make a better projectile tasers and tranqs and then faze out lethals but until those dream guns are made its chitty chitty bang bang in the streets. As was said Better Training Should Be MANDATORY. Yet until we get it we won't suspend those with a badge.So it could go both ways but it definitely needs to progress a lot further WAY faster because the Common citizen is not in touch with IA(Internal Affairs) The People who supposedly "Police the Police".Terrible Accountability is Costing Cops and Citizens Alike their Life. #LetItStop

Not everyone who breaks the law is some crazed, lawbreaker with no respect for the police, willing to shoot a cop on sight. As a matter of fact I'd say the majority of people who break laws are normal people like you or me who thought they could get away with something small like speeding to get to work. I don't think my life should be in danger for something small just because a cop gets jumpy.

Please stop wearing a safety belt...

Caleb Reyna The cops with heavy arms can be dispatched from strategic locations. Like the fire department. Response times to serious crimes would improve. We'll call if we need them.

Joshua Butcher Great talk.

Pokerface ok oh benevolent one, how are you going to get everybody to stop owning guns

Pokerface Cuz...cuz...Make America Great Again you Commie SJW! 'Murica!

Because the only reason why we are an independent nation, that combated the greatest military presence ever before seen in history is because men of all ages had guns in their homes. The first thing any tyrannical government does is remove guns from the populous, this is something that has been repeated time and time again throughout history. But to get less abstract, the United States and its founders realized that the only means of protecting ones personal freedoms from oppression and those who wish to do harm is to be armed. If you want an idea of what these regressive policies that people like Bernie Sanders and Debbie Wassermann Schultz are pushing I suggest you read the book 1984 written by George Orwell in 1948 the similarities are profound.

Yeah, because countries that have strict restrictions on private gun ownership are inherently fascist. Like Japan, England, Australia, Germany...Oh wait.

its called a bit.

smart people think its hilarious.

well to many people (myself included). Donald Trump is such a dumbass unprofessional ding dong that it's still hard to believe this low brow, buttholl for a mouth, walking fart represents the United States in any form. it's embarrassing AF.

You're right, it's not funny. Because it's awful. It's awful that he's....**gag** the...**choke** p-p-president! Ugh, just typing it out makes me nauseous.

I find it just as funny every time.

Rudy Apolinar but what about all of the individuals shot while following orders or complying with the law? i can think of two examples right off the bat where the person shot was attempting to show ID per procedure and was killed. or what about the man who was killed for calmly and legally informing an officer about his licensed weapon? coming up with a device that can incapacitate an indiviual without killing them us within our technological capacity, and were we to stop with this arguments over the problem and actually focus on a solution then we'd be in a much better place right now.

Rudy Apolinar Ya and anyone who think police should have guns don't have family or friends who've been killed because a police officer felt threatened by them reaching for their Id.

Rudy Apolinar how is the police officer's life being threatened when he is standing 2 feet away from a person holding a gun directly in his face with no justification for pulling the trigger? Police these days are just panicked and Confused individuals who are not prepared to handle a real life situation other than pull the trigger. Very sad.

Tell that to the families of the 49 unarmed people who were murdered by pigs this year.

Tell that to the schizophrenic drunk on a bike that was killed in the homeless area of my city in July. It caused a ruckus in the media for 'bout a day. That guy was a soft head riding away on a bike and that cop acted like a little kid.

As he said, CNN getting removed would be a nightmare politically, so turning on the cameras would be a way to call their bluff rather than submit to the rules.

It can't just be one organization or any other organization will just take their place. If you're going to do something like this effectively it has to be multiple organizations at once. One organization will just get written off as someone unwilling to follow the rules. A whole bunch of them puts the White House in a real bind. And frankly given what this White House has done I don't think CNN getting kicked out would be a big deal. Or Spicer could try and take the high road and just walk out and leave them all there.

Fahrenheit can anybody explain how journalism never existed before the camera? or did journalism actually exist before the camera but now all journalist are too freaking retarded to know how to be a journalist without a camera with them?

Teenwolf2013 I'd say nice try, but it wasn't.

So how will we know when they guy has a gun?
