Scary. Last week in Farmington, Maine an incident somewhat like this occurred. Deputy shot and killed a man with a knife. The armchair critics turned out on the comment boards predictably. Saner commenters mentioned the 21 foot rule which I had never heard but makes sense. The Bangor Daily News later ran an article stating “Officer opted not to use Tazer in shooting incident”. The stupid is great in those editors.
