Re: Another Taser Death Raises Eyebrows To New Levels

Continuum of force. Verbal, gentle touch, more forceful touch, OC spray, nightstick Taser, forearm. These are pretty much the options available to the officer during a confrontation. Compliance is up to the person the officer is interacting with. Does the use of Tasers get abused? Yes they do, but have you ever noticed when the officer uses deadly force on someone the family will often ask, "Couldn't the officer have done something else?" or "Why did he use a Taser?"

If one does not get into a fight with an officer then one does not normally get tased, or OC, or hit with a nightstick or shot. Seem to be a pretty simple concept to me. :???:
