Police officer uses Taser to stop suicidal man


A Chesterfield Township officer used a Taser stun gun to subdue a suicidal man in the Aspen Creek Apartment Complex in the early morning hours of Thursday, March 24.

According to a press release, officers responded to a 911 call about a 56-year-old Chesterfield Township man who was suicidal. The call came from the man's female roommate at 2:40 a.m., Chesterfield Township Det. Sgt. Deron Myers said.

Upon arrival to the 23 Mile Road apartment complex, officers encountered the man profusely bleeding from self-inflicted cuts on both his wrists while sitting on the kitchen floor in the apartment, according to a press release.

As officers attempted to help and reason with the man, he raised a knife to his throat and told officers, “Go ahead and kill me,” according to the release.

It was at this time officer Michael Ogden Tased the man in fear that if something wasn’t done he would further injure himself. The deployment of the Taser stun gun caused the man to drop the knife and fall back against the cupboards. However, once the Tasing cycle was complete the man went back to reach for the knife.

Ogden deployed his Taser stun gun again, once again disabling the man. It was at this time officers moved in and disarmed him.

"It was a great call," Myers said, adding it was a judgement call within the department's policies and procedures. "It worked perfectly."

Medstar and Chesterfield Township fire units were called to administer first aide. The man was transported to Mount Clemens Regional Hospital where he is currently recovering, according to the release.

Electronic Dog Repellent Keeps Dog Pee Of My Tires!

Finally an electronic dog repellent that really works and without causing pain!

You have probably seen dogs running loose in your neighborhood and just like the rest of us you are probably feed up with it too.

I recently bought a cctv surveillance system for my home security. As a side benefit I now know which pesky dog it is that has been running loose doing his dirty deed on my tires. So now that he has been caught how do I get rid of him? I tried spray on repellents but they did nothing but leave more stains.

After a little research online I found the Ultrasonic Super Dog Chaser dog repellent. I considered using pepper spray for dogs or a stun baton type of stun gun but decided to try the electronic dog repellent because it uses ultrasonic sound that dogs hear but people do not, like a traditional dog whistle. And I really like that it has an effective range of forty feet, much further than the spray or stun baton.

Now when that stray dog is in my yard I will use my electronic super dog chaser to run him off. For my money the Ultrasonic Dog Chaser is the only repellent for dog pee!

Complete Security For Your Home with a Hidden Camera Surveillance System and an Auto Dialer Alarm System

A hidden camera surveillance system with DVR can be connected to the internet for viewing from anywhere you have access to the world wide web. The Auto Dialer alarm will call as many as five preset phone numbers when someone enters your home. Either one is a pretty good investment for any home security plan.

Now you can go anywhere and feel secure knowing you will not only be alerted to any unwanted activity in your home, you will be able to tell the police exactly what is happening.

By using both the Auto dialer alarm system and a hidden camera hooked to your computer and the internet you can find out instantly what is going on in your home. When your auto dialer alarm calls to alert you of a break-in, you can check your hidden camera surveillance system from any internet connection, even your cell phone to see if a burglar is in your home.

Is Campus Security Really Good Enough For Your Daughters Safety and Survival?


My daughter just graduated from high school and we are thinking about her safety while she is away at college. After some discussion with her mother and the help of the TV show 'Gene Simmons Family Jewels' we decided to buy her a Taser C2, in hot pink of course. A Taser, although extremely effective, would not be enough for our daughters safety.

What about her safety on campus? The campus security do not allow students or faculty to carry Tasers on the college grounds. I guess only criminals can have weapons on campus.

What we found for our daughter is the Ultimate College Safety and Survival kit made by SafeFamilyLife. It has a door stop alarm for her dorm room, motion alert alarm, an electronic pocket whistle alarm, different varieties and sizes of personal defense sprays, a book diversion safe for her valuables and more. The kit even comes with manuals, DVDs and articles with tips and instructions on how to use everything for her very own ultimate safety and survival plan.

Now with a taser C2, pepper spray, and the pocket whistle alarm, we feel more confident about our daughters safety off the college campus. And with the detailed product manuals, instructional DVDs, alarms for her dorm room and a small safe for valuables this really is the ultimate college safety and survival kit.

I am not saying that campus security is not adequate, unfortunately they can not be all places at all times. The college safety kit and a Taser will definitely increase our daughters chance of surviving her college years even when we can not be there to protect her.

My Favorite Dog Deterent, TheTelescoping Stun Baton, Will Give a Stray Dog 800,000 High Voltage Reasons to Run Away!


My wife and I like to take a nice walk through the neighborhood and watch the sun set over the mountains to the west. It would be nice to think that one day we might not need to worry about attack from viscous stray dogs, and not need a high voltage dog repellent stun baton or other protection device.

Some people think that when they no longer want or can afford that out of control dog, dropping it off in a rural neighborhood is a good idea. It is not, but unfortunately, it happens. These are the dogs that require us to carry protection and I would rather use 800,000 volts of dog deterrent in the form of a telescoping stun baton as apposed to trying to shoot mt 45 cal. Ruger during an attack from a stray dog.

Not that it would bother me very much to have to shoot a vicious stray dog, my concern would be more for the danger to my neighbors from a stray bullet. That will never be a problem with a telescoping stun baton. After a couple of seconds of being shocked by 800,000 volts of dog deterrent, that stray dog will probably run and hide when it sees us coming down the street.

Twenty Reasons Why Criminals Do Not Want Your Home to Have a Wireless Security System

Twenty Things a Criminal Will Never Tell You and Twenty Reasons why Your Home Should Have a Wireless Home Security System

1. Sometimes, I carry a clipboard. Sometimes, I dress like a lawn guy and carry a rake. I do my best to never, ever look like a crook.

2. The two things I hate most: barking dogs and nosy neighbors.

3. I’ll break a window to get in, even if it makes a little noise. If your neighbor hears one loud sound, he’ll stop what he’s doing and wait to hear it again. If he doesn’t hear it again, he’ll just go back to what he was doing. It’s human nature.

4. I’m not complaining, but why would you pay all that money for a fancy alarm system and leave your house without setting it?

5. I love looking in your windows. I’m looking for signs that you’re home, and for flat screen TVs or gaming systems I’d like. I’ll drive or walk through your neighborhood at night, before you close the blinds, just to pick my targets.

6. Avoid announcing your vacation on your Facebook page. It’s easier than you think to look up your address.

7. To you, leaving that window open just a crack during the day is a way to let in a little fresh air. To me, it’s an invitation.

8. Hey, thanks for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last week. While I was in there, I unlatched the back window to make my return a little easier.

9. Of course I look familiar. I was here just last week cleaning your carpets, painting your shutters, or delivering your new refrigerator.

10. Do you really think I won’t look in your sock drawer? I always check dresser drawers, the bedside table, and the medicine cabinet.

11. Here’s a helpful hint: I almost never go into kids’ rooms.

12. You’re right: I won’t have enough time to break into that safe where you keep your valuables. But if it’s not bolted down, I’ll take it with me.

13. A loud TV or radio can be a better deterrent than the best alarm system. Leave your TV on when you go out.

14. If it snows while you’re out of town, get a neighbor to create car and foot tracks into the house. Virgin drifts in the driveway are a dead giveaway.

15. Yes, I really do look for newspapers piled up on the driveway. And I might leave a pizza flyer in your front door to see how long it takes you to remove it.

16. If decorative glass is part of your front entrance, don’t let your alarm company install the control pad where I can see if it’s set. That makes it too easy.

17. A good security company alarms the window over the sink. And the windows on the second floor, which often access the master bedroom—and your jewelry. It’s not a bad idea to put motion detectors up there too.

18. It’s raining, you’re fumbling with your umbrella, and you forget to lock your door—understandable. But understand this: I don’t take a day off because of bad weather.

19. I always knock first. If you answer, I’ll ask for directions somewhere or offer to clean your gutters. (Don’t take me up on it.)

20. If you don’t answer when I knock, I try the door. Occasionally, I hit the jackpot and walk right in.

My Neice has a College Safety Plan: a Hot Pink TASER Stun gun with a Laser site


The TASER C2 should be your niece or daughter's hot pink high voltage defense plan.

My brother and I were talking recently about his daughter and her plans for college next fall. He told me about different colleges and universities she might attend, discussed the different educational benefits, music programs and sports curriculum they offered. One thing he did not mention was her personal safety and protection.

That is when the discussion turned to her safety on and off campus. Of course my niece over heard us talking about her and what would be her best college safety and defense plan. She mentioned a recent episode of Gene Simmons Family Jewels in which Shannon Tweed, the mother of Gene Simmons children, had a Taser and pepper spray party. This sounded interesting.

At the Taser Party there was a demonstration of how to use the Taser C2 with the laser site. " This is the one I want" were the next words from my brothers daughter.
Apparently the hot pink C2 is what she was referring to. I was not surprised when my brother agreed it is a great way for her to be protected while away at college.

After a little research we found a Personal Security store online that sells High Voltage Tasers for personal defense. The price was very reasonable (if you can put a price on your daughter's personal safety an security) and the instant rebate on the Taser C2 model with the laser site had me sold.

And that is how my niece solved her personal safety and security while away at college.
