In these parts we threaten to withhold biscuits from meetings. Sometimes we really mean it. Escalating straight to firearms sounds a little bit excessive.

Are you in England?
Yes, towards the bottom left of it.

I could tell by your accent ;)
Tasers aren’t really firearms. Also I’m guessing this was more of a stun gun anyway.

On the weapon scale, taser is a lot closer to gun than biscuit.
You don't throw them. It's the threat of having to drink your tea (yes, coffee too) without a biccy that does the damage. Withholding tea is unthinkable.
I am impressed that your weapon scale goes all the way to biscuit! I guess a stale one could serve as a projectile
England invented rock cakes (see: Harry Potter) and ginger nuts ('the original biscuits in the 1840s were "as hard as a nut"').
Although the USA can fight back with a slow HFCS poisoning :-)
