Again, how many cops are killed by unarmed junkies?Taser is reasonable force.
In certain situations, it sure is. I'm not convinced that it was reasonable force in this situation.
As I said, many who are on drugs will look and sound "developmentally disabled" ... that is until you touch them, then they kinda hurt you really bad. The cops used the taser because that's the one thing that keeps them safe to. Tasers don't just stop the criminal, they prevent harm to both the criminals and cops in almost all instances, period. Just looking at one or two per year that die ... that's dishonesty at best.
