It’s quite obvious you have never been in a situation that required you to make a split second life altering choice. It baffles me how people can sit there and say “Oh, just shoot him in the leg”. That is not reality. The reality is dude is messed up on coke, meth, whatever or just plain manic, and he wants to have nothing to do with police. He/ She is in a “Fight or Flight” state of mind, and a police officer has no idea what that decision will be. I have been in a similar situation once (no not in North America) where I was faced with a split second life altering situation and let me tell you, never once did the welfare of this person enter my mind. Luckily for the both of us it worked out, better for him than me. So I would like to squash the delusions that cops have all the time in the world to think of where to shoot individuals
And yes taze them all…if you have a weak heart, than you should have thought abut that first. Before you put yourself in a situation that could cause you to be tazed.
