Second, yes, there have been many times police used tasers on people just armed with knives or clubs.
But I have read that these officers did not even have tasers. So maybe they would have used them if they had them.
Only an idiot would pull a taser on someone coming at them with a lethal weapon, when he/she had the option of a lethal weapon. Especially when that person has refused numerous requests to stop.
If you find fault in this shooting, then........never mind
