Yeah, not too long ago when tazers were not issues he would have had his weapon drawn right out for that guy not complying. Now with escalation of force "politics" you have to go to the tazer. I have seen so many times it being not effective at all. Glad the guy is ok....

There was a question as to whether or not the Taser would have penetrated the perp's cammo clothing (i.e. must the probe actualy touch flesh or will it penetrate the clothing)?

Still I'd have tried to stay just on the edge of reach of the probes.
