52 people have died in Florida after being tased by Police. Tuesday, the Southern Christian Leadership Council called on Governor Charlie Crist to ban tasers until they are proven safe.

SCLC General Counsel Richard Wimbish says Florida is second only to California in taser deaths.

"We believe that these devices are dangerous. SCLC fully supports law enforcement. We believe that bans should be enacted until there is independent medical data that supports the fact these are indeed non lethal devices."

The group says all citizens, white or black, are likely to have a taser used on them.
