The wire on the glove doesn't even look long enough to allow him to extend his arm fully. If you're trying to disable someone who has a gun with an electric shock, you probably don't want to get close enough to touch them. As far as various itches go, there was probably a mandatory safety briefing on using your right hand to scratch. Tasers have a much longer ranger than the glove.

Was it fear of electrocuting people? Or was it the cost of the glove, the war, and subsequent usage of tear gas sprays?

The image is altered. In the actual scan there was another article that began below that one. I removed it because it looks ugly to have one paragraph of an unrelated story in the image.

Could we get a source / citation? Looks like it came out of a newspaper, so should be easy enough to verify if we can get a paper, as we have an approximate date.
