The Tasers for the police are arriving in Florence. Sap police union: “Safer city”
FLORENCE – “An important initiative that after the training phase begins to see its realization. The training phase is also coming to an end in the other cities of Italy ”.
The Sap police union thus describes the beginning of the use of the taser, “what to start – he explains Massimo BartocciniSap secretary Florence – in the 14 metropolitan cities, including Florence. An important tool that can make a difference on the roads of our country “.
“Finally – he continues – we will have the opportunity to make our interventions much more effective and the city will be safer”.
Bartoccini echoes the statements of the Sap secretary general Stefano Paoloni: “A tool that SAP has always defined as non-violence, since its first characteristic is to defeat the resistance of the violent person, which by law we must also stop with the use of force before this step”.
“A very important result – are still the words of Paoloni – that the Autonomous Police Syndicate has been pursuing for many years and which has met with great response, thanks to the former Minister of the Interior Matteo Salvini and subsequently relaunched and concluded with the current Undersecretary for the Interior Nicola Molteni. Strongly desired by both “.
“The provision of this non-lethal deterrent tool – continues Bartolini – will be essential for effective and safe police interventions. In fact, it is a further guarantee also for the operators, because it avoids a struggle and also guarantees the person to be stopped “.
“In this regard – he adds – the data are absolutely extraordinary. During the experimentation phase we were able to verify that out of about 15 interventions with the use of the Taser in as many as 14 cases there is on average desistance. This is an important result ”.
“We can affirm – he specifies – that with its use the risks are minimal and we invite the skeptics to verify the data, before manifesting a prejudicial opposition”.
“Now – concludes Bartoccini – we hope to see as soon as possible the supply of this pulse pistol also for all the other colleagues of the various specialties of the state police engaged every day to control the territory. The use of the taser will be a turning point for the security sector “.
