>>6221203>>6221244They're kind of stuck though. They can't taze him, they don't want to close for physical confrontation, but he's not moving so they don't have grounds to shoot him. So...
>>6221201>Why you should avoid the metroit's not a car you own.

>>6221249That's why cops are supposed to have numerous options. They have pepper spray, batons, they have access to escalating levels of less lethal munitions that are probably in their car (pepperball, 12 gauge beanbag shells). All I'm saying is the taser clearly didn't work, so instead of trying it again, they should have switched tactics.

>>6221530My brother in Christ, it's not about punishment, it's about behavior modification via pain compliance. If you can no longer see and your eyes burn because you were pepper sprayed, or if you can't breath because the pava powder from a Pepperball is displacing the oxygen in your lungs, you are less able to continue being an asshole, and thus able to be subdued and restrained.

That amount of money is a huge incentive for people to continue behaving erratically in public spaces.In the end, the cycle will go on forever.
