Another idiot heard from!

Once again, someone who has not been there and done that, thinks he is in a position to critique an officer's actions.

Huffpost reports on a situation where an LEO used his service weapon to defend himself.  The video tells the story.  Of course, as usual, there is someone who thinks they know better:

"He was drunk. [The officer] could have maced him," Kenneth Willaims told WHAS. "He could have used his stun gun. He didn't have to shoot that man. He wasn't no threat."

Yes, likely the officer could have maced him as soon as he arrived on scene, prior to coming under attack.  Of course, then we would be showing a video of that and reading critiques of why he maced a man who had yet to attack him.  Same goes with the idea of using a taser.

Here's a hint for not getting shot by LE; if they come on scene to take charge of you, don't try to beat them with a flagpole.
