Taser Parties Take the Spotlight

It's being hailed as the new Tupperware party. Women like us gather to share a bit of wine and cheese in a neighbor's home but instead of pouring over kitchen items, jewelry or slumber party toys, these ladies are placing orders for taser guns - and get this, they even come in pink!

These Taser Parties begin with a demonstration which is followed up by a self defense discussion. At that point, the attendees can place an order for their very own taser gun if they choose. Many of the women at these parties said that they feel safer carrying one of these around with them in their purse for protection.
