        So, police officer had to kill bat-wielding 66-yr-old woman with history of acting out. Since when is that reason to fear for life?

        Cops are assholes, surely they could've safely eluded an old lady with a bat.

        Of course if the sgt. was hit over the head, semi-incapacitated and fearing for their lives, use of a firearm would be justified.

        Are officers losing faith in TASER, forgetting it's there, or drawing the wrong weapon?
