Well, what do you know? There's been yet another Taser incident. But I'm sure the cops only reacted because they thought they were in imminent danger.
So, let's give them the benefit of the doubt on this one. After all, they didn't know that the report of a shooting, which was called in anonymously from a cell phone, was a false alarm. And they didn't know that the home they broke into would be occupied. They also didn't know that the guy they confronted inside was hearing impaired and couldn't respond to their verbal commands. And even though the "suspect" had just gotten out of the bathtub and was wrapped in nothing but a towel, they just couldn't be sure that he was unarmed.
Yeah, no question about it. They did what they had to do.

This reminded me of the recent report of a pregnant woman being tasered in Ohio. I mean, how were her protectors and servers to know that she wasn't carrying a bomb beneath her shirt or something?
When you simply imagine them wearing brown uniforms, it all falls into place.
