Stun Guns (and Stun Sticks)

With the need of police to have a rapid non-lethal response to suspected criminals, the 'stun stick' was developed. It quickly got developed into the stun gun, as fligs got modified, but the range is very short on hand held devices, or it would stun the gun holder. It works by aiming a very rapidly changing polarity magnetic field in very close proximity to the human brain, causing massive disruption to regular thought. Stun devices were promoted by the manufacturers as providing a better alternative to a bullet, a point that the HA recognises, but HAJaR also puts the responsibility of care and compensation on the police. To deal better with the consequences the HAHA developed the The Chair. As stunning is potentially lethal, the general public are not allowed to use stun devices. On the opposite side of adoption, the military combat suits have it as standard.
