Pretty soon all the serial killers will be armed with defib unit 'cos they know they can get off light. Then they’ll have to ban defibrilators, and you know where that leads? Do you? _ **EMTs with car batteries and alligator clips attached to patients’ nipples!** _ Do you want to be responsible for that? > [@OtakuLoki](#): > > Because if we allowed this as a criminal justice option the demand for thwackees would outstrip any possible supply of thwackers.
