It had to be Colombia, didn't it? A nice catch by RB over at Ten Percent sees the Colombian Police Force opting out of their usual "control devices" (e.g. thumbscrews, spare FARC uniforms to slip on innocent victims, unmarked graves) and going all thoroughly modern on the world:
(FinancialWire) Taser International, Inc. (NASDAQ: TASR), a market leader in digital evidence solutions and electronic control devices, announced an order from the Colombian National Police for 140 Taser(R) X26 ECDs and related accessories. The contract was placed with Tasers exclusive distributor, Eagle Commercial, S.A. in Colombia.
Now you know how Uribe can guarantee a decent turnout on election day next year.
Mojitos served. The end.
