And that is exactly what they are doing, If that Countries Laws have the provision for lethal force you can guarantee at some point it will be used, the guy on the ground must make that decision good or bad & if that means someone will be shot/tazered well that is one of the harsh realities of modern life.
If that officer decides not to shoot he risks personal Death & Injury & no accounting what is likely to happen to the wider public. I don't know if you are referring to specific incidents or not, but what we tend to get filtered through to us from the media are these terrible killing sprees, which can only be stopped with a well aimed shot, is shooting such a wrong decision to make then when you consider the likely outcome of not shooting ?
