[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3027293, member: 13624"] In a life-or-death situation, it would be acceptable to use anything as a defensive weapon. Does that mean that the cops should also be carrying hand grenades and flamethrowers? After all, it would be okay to use them to protect their own lives. Feel better now? If things are so bad that you need bayonets for riot control, it's time to call up the National Guard; day-to-day LEOs don't need the hardware to take Fallujah. And, as we've seen, once they have the cool toys, they tend to use them whether they're truly necessary or not. [/QUOTE]
