However, the Massachusetts law is still an ass for banning a less damaging method of self defense for women in particular.
Maybe someone will sue the state on sexism or size-ism.
Have they also banned pepper spray?
As for your particular case, you probably want a wide variety of damage levels available so you can choose based on the circumstances. Sometimes just having a shiny (visible in limited light conditions) firearm is all that is needed.
Edit; clarity
What I could have understood was a case that stun devices were not firearms and therefore should not fall under the 2nd Amendment-but the court really did not distinguish on that basis, merely the modernity issue.
By this logic, all the more reason that law enforcement should not carry stun guns. We would want signs of excessive force to be obvious.
