46. I forgot to mention -- the drunk was also swinging a saber
so the cop was justified. Very disturbing to see.

I agree 100% that they are abused. But the problem could be all but solved by putting the same requirement on their use as handguns -- only when the cop's life is in jeopardy. A couple of $million-plus lawsuits buys a whole lot of common sense.
