It's easy to make those kinds of suggestions when you're not the one doing
the wrestling.

It's also easy to avoid being shot with a tazer - don't resist arrest.
Probably works 99.99999999% of the time.

Disclaimer: This being the internet age and all (thanks Al) there is
probably the odd case someone could dig up where a perfectly innocent person
who was not resisting arrest was still shot with a tazer. I would suggest
that the chance of this happening is statistically far less than say, having
your engine fall out of your airplane.
