IMO a Taser is far less dangerous than a baton and I'd rather be tasered than CS'd.



Here is a radical suggestion. If you think the Police did a crap job and their actions were wrong how about you tell us what you would have done.

I won't hold my breath though.
you seem to be getting a little annoyed that you can't get your own way and that is the perfect reason not to arm the police with tasers ,if this was a stand off in the street you would have probably tasered me by now just because i wont do as i'm told .
