ICE to spend up to $20M on gloves that can deliver painful electric shocks (theguardian.com)

This belongs in a dystopian cyberpunk RPG, not reality.

This sounds like something that would cause the opposite of compliance. If you restraining me hurts more then I have every incentive to get out of the restraint.

It's more of a torture device to be applied to fully restrained person, which means enforcers will probably love it because they are doing it already, often beating, tazing and in some cases even shooting fully restrained person.

Man alive! You sure want to remove these before taking a leak!

The cruelty was always the point, but they used to try to hide it.

Good thing my police doesn't look like this.

They look like hoodlums who walked through a prepper bazaar.

If you are a non-American thinking about visiting, please don't visit, for your own safety.
