Shocking people with a Soundtrack

According to a story from MSNBC.com, the Taser company is introducing an MP3 player to its new line of stun guns. Can I just say, "What the Duece!!?"

I mean this goes up there with shit like HDTVs on refrigerators. Who the hell needs to listen to music while they stun people with electricty?

But since some moron did bring this little item to the market, what kind of music would you listen to while you jolt someone with 23,600 volts?


What follows is the story from MSNBC.com


LAS VEGAS - A handy new holster from Taser International Inc. holds not only your stun gun but a music player too.

Taser's latest foray into consumer products was introduced Monday at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The holster costs $72.99 on the company's Web site and includes a 1-gigabyte MP3 player.

The company, which also sells its electronic weapons to law enforcement agencies and the military, has been stepping up its consumer product offerings with Tasers in new colors like "red-hot" and "fashion pink."


The latest Taser — in a leopard print and costing $379.99 — "provides a personal protection option for women who want fashion with a bite," said Chief Executive Rick Smith.
