Subject Are cops tasering everyone because they are lazy or not trained?

Original Message Really? I would like some cops input on how much and what kind of training they get. Maybe how they are told to conduct themselves.

I just heard on the radio yet another story of a cop tasering a 17 year old boy because he was "coming at him agressively". Not with a weapon mind you. So we've got cops using tazers on everyone from pregnant women, kids, and disabled people in wheel chairs.

Do they really not teach cops how to handle themselves in a way that they could physically disable someone without possibly killing them?

To tell you the truth, it just seems to me that laziness is the reasoning behind using these tasers so much.
