Bill -

Non-lethal weapons include many different kinds of devices, not just Tasers, Pepper Spray and nunchuks. See en.wikipedia.org

You flatly state that "no one will pull one of these out and use it when faced with a shooter", but that's just supposition on your part.

I'm not interested in eliminating all guns. I do realize that would be impossible.

Here's my most important point: Our gun policies should not be determined by events that occur a few times a year at most, across the entire country, no matter how tragic those rare events are.

History on this subject doesn't really provide a clear-cut answer one way or another, by the way.
