They have Police Batton's for a reason -.-

If you're in a situation where someone is coming at you in anger and they might or might not have a knife or a gun, what are you going to do?  Pull out a taser or a stick?  

How about people simply not be fucking stupid in the first place?  Wouldn't that be so much better?  Why is that too much to ask?  

really, you think this is a life-or-death situation for the officer? ridiculous

It isn't. But I am watching the video on youtube, sleeping in my bed. The officer reacted differently because he is naturally protective of himself first and foremost. It doesn't matter what kind of training you get, your safety will come first.
