There was nothing "like a man" about what that teenager was doing. She isn't scrawny but she damn sure wasn't on the level of that male cop.

Her stupidity is amazing but I certainly hope people aren't advocating police simply respond based on people's stupidity or to prove a "fight a man, get hit by a man" point instead of just tasering an aggressor (versus beating with a baton when deemed unnecessary, punching, etc.). It's a slippery slope and when we get to the point of no return, people better not act like they don't know how we got there.

Yeah, but he didn't forget his training. He could have done other things, but he didn't go beyond what his training allowed. Your example is completely out of context, but thanks for keeping the thread lively!

You're welcome.

@ WinniBug: That made me think of "don't taser me, bro" and laugh.
