Chinese Anti Terror Unit on Segways… Wait, What?

There are a number of situations where technology can tilt a tactical situation in favor of Police forces but it’s hard to associate Segways to any kind of tactical situation. In Paris, there are organized Segway tours and it’s not uncommon to see a poor tourist being slapped to the ground by a Segway “gone mad” – that’s my experience, at least. Anyhow, the sight of the picture above is just too ridiculous to skip, but I really hope that these guys won’t have to shoot anyone in this precarious position. Now, is it not as scary as seeing police use a flame thrower in an Olympic terror situation… via Xinhuanet [Thanks Randy for sending this in]
