Headline

[edit]

Can I suggest changing the headline to New Zealand police to trial tasers from Friday - headline makes it sound like they're only trialling it for one day... (I'll leave it to the next person who agrees to change it :D) --R2b2 03:53, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I agree. --Nzgabriel | My RfA | Talk page 04:04, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

trial

[edit]

am not sure trial can be used as a verb, wiktionary and Merriam-Webster's list it as a noun or adjective. Doldrums 05:14, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've used it as a verb before, but it is way more common as a noun. Bawolff ☺☻ 07:25, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
In English you can verb any noun. That said, I'd prefer 'test' or 'evaluate'. TRWBW 08:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Completly safe

[edit]

They said that in Canada too, then people started dyeing from taser blasts. Bawolff ☺☻ 07:25, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

Allegdly from the fall to the ground, however (as per article). --Gabriel | My RfA | Talk page 10:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC)Reply
