They'll be carrying electrically-charged riot shields, zapping the unruly without unholstering their weapons. That is, if the folks at Taser International have their way. The company just introduced the "_Taser Shield Conversion Kit_ (http://www.primenewswire.com/newsroom/news.html?d=142464) featuring the ." The kit "features a peel and stick perforated [f]ilm, power supply and necessary conversion equipment. This laminate becomes electrified providing a powerful deterrent to protect officers and keep suspects or rioters at bay." What could possibly go wrong? Taser is _demonstratinging all kinds of gear_ (http://taser.com/Pages/default.aspx) this week -- from shock-inducing shotgun rounds to "area denial" zappers that can fry groups of people at once. It's all part of the Office of Law Enforcement Technology Commercialization's Mock Prison Riot, a showcase for new police and correctional tech, held annually at on the grounds of the former West Virginia Penitentiary in Moundsville. (David Axe _covered_ (http://blog.wired.com/defense/2007/05/military_cops_b.html) the so-called "_Rage in the Cage_ (http://www.oletc.org/riot/) " for DANGER ROOM last year.) The peel-and-stick zapping film will be available towards the end of the year, the company says. Our buddy _Lew Page_ (http://search.theregister.co.uk/?author=Lewis%20Page) , over at El Reg, wonders, "_Whatever's next_ (http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/05/13/taser_on_a_roll/) ? Electrified body-armour suits? Gauntlets? Truly, the day of the electric cop would seem to be upon us." And we can think of lots of other things one might do with this sort of Taser-on-a-roll technology. Troublesome dogs or drunks relieving themselves against your wall? People keep touching your car? Borrowing your stuff? Cover it in peel-and-stick zappercoat (with a car-key-style remote disarm as required), plug it in and watch the fun (and lawsuits) begin.
