The good old billy club worked well. Unfortunate I see more and more that the tazer is the easy way out of handling situations that normally escalate because the officer allowed it to escalate. Control is lost. Take a look at the video from the officers video cam in submans post . The stop started out bad because the cop let it start out bad.
You have to undestand something. The tazer shoots electricity through out your body. Your body functions by small electrical charges that jump from neuron to neuron. This includes your heart and brain. What happens to a wire that can handle 120 volts that receives 240 volts? ZAP, SMOKE, FIRE. Same situation here with the tazer. The friggin thing is lethal to the human body.
A broken arm or cracked rib from a billy club certainly is better than having electricity sent through your body that can and will stop your heart. Worked great with the electric chair. Works great with tazers also.
