[QUOTE="Red Dirt Walker, post: 4166157, member: 51065"] Based simply upon the short video and the article that didn't really help much at all I have to side with the Police Officer. Tasers are meant to disable a person. If a police officer is disabled, that puts them at risk for being injured or killed. Some my argue.....why couldn't the officer also use a taser? In this case I don't believe he had the opportunity. Based upon the video he was using his left hand to try and fend off the person, which only left his right hand, which was his pistol side. Even if cross drawing his taser is possible in non-threatening situations, in a situation like that I don't believe it was realistic, if possible. [/QUOTE]
