Dennis McBride, PhD, is a President Emeritus and Fellow of the Potomac Institute for Policy Studies.  Dr. McBride led a 2005 Institute study on non-lethal technology used by law enforcement.  When the recent death of a Virginia man following police use of a Taser again focused attention on these technologies, Dr. McBride offered commentary to local media covering the story. Dr. McBride says when used properly by police, non-lethal stun guns are safe. But he raises concerns about thier use by the public.  Click here to read more on radio station WAMU's website.  Click here to listen to Dr. McBride's on-air comment on WAMU.
