re: #212 allegro

Yes, I do. I also know how to disarm a guy with a knife without any weapon at all. Can you tell me why every cop there had a gun drawn to shoot rather than one of them prepared with a baton or taser instead?

So…what, you’re going to allow a guy who’s armed with a knife to close to hand-to-hand combat range just to disarm him?

And have we established that St. Louis PD equips all its officers with tasers? Some departments, especially after the rampant misuse of tasers, and the resultant videos, over the last couple years, only equip supervisors with tasers.
