Ah, Those Selfish Policemen (Via The Corner)

From an editorial in today's Hartford Courant urging a moratorium on arming the police with stun guns until the State can adopt regulations for their use:

Not that stun guns are a hard sell. Studies confirm that they do help to dramatically reduce police injuries and cops will embrace anything that improves their odds of making it to those fat retirement pensions without a scratch.

I'm no fan of public employee unions, but this strikes me as an argument too far.
