I would think using force like that would depend on the local laws. I got
arrested for pepper spraying a guy who jumped on the back of the wrecker and
kicked a rear window out while I was towing his car away. When the cop
arrived he apologized to me and said he had to arrest me for assault because
the guy was threatening the truck and not me. He still let me tow the guy's
car back to the shop, and lock my .45 in the building before taking me to the
station to book me. I was released and hour later on a written promise to
appear. My boss made a few phone calls the next day and the entire incident
was dropped.

Have you seen Auto Tazer? It's not a mild shock but it won't kill either.
I've considered it, but figured once the reprobates get shocked, they'd
try some sort of "revenge" on my DAK.
The system is around $200 and selling quite well around these parts.
