I heard they pepper sprayed him [B]6 times[/B] and he kept going.
Well, I've read all the comments you guys have posted and it reminds me of a year or so back when in Melbourne, a 15yo kid was running around with a pair of kitchen knives. Anyway, about 4 cops were chasing him when he turned around and ran at them. So the cops opened fire and shot him something like 10 times and everyone was in uproar about how the cops should have helped him or something, instead of killing him [url]http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-national/police-believed-teen-posed-threat-coroner-20111123-1ntpw.html[/url]
Can't really tell from the videos where he was when they shot him but I'd be scared of hitting a bystander in such a crowded place, I'd like to see them do this only at higher speed. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9DR4yz7Q0Y[/media]

[QUOTE=Chinook249;37207336]Knives are 'used up close' too aren't they? It'd be kind of a melee of sorts[/QUOTE] I'm pretty sure a knife would win against a tazer.

Guys, I hope you know that in the heat of the moment, the human body is fully capable of continuing to move even if they have SEVERE injuries. I remember a while back I read about a police sniper who had to take the shot on a hostage taker, and managed to basically blow off half his head, but the person managed to still stumble to the police barricade and ask for help before dying.
