Probation and Parole Officer here. We carry OC (Peppe Spray) and not tasers. We are armed. The problem with OC is that it contaminates everyone including you. It’s horrible. To get certified, we have to take a hit with it right in the face. It’s absolutely horrible stuff. You don’t see police using it nearly as much as they did about 20 years ago.

As much as I hate the stuff, I think it would be better to go back to widespread use of OC rather than tasers or impact weapons. Spray first and ask questions later. Spray them the moment they fail to comply.

So is that the main reason the police force went away from it? So it wouldn’t contaminate bystanders?

This. The idea that suspects are immediately non compliant and hostile has to be stopped. That’s where the danger comes.
