I wonder if a male officer would have needed to shoot him or if this guy is another victim of the push to hire female officers?

It’s easier just to whack the guy than try to reason with a madman.

Sounds more to me like he was merely a victim of his own stupidity.

Bingo....we have a winner. If a cop with a nightstick couldn't use nonlethal force to subdue a guy swinging a chair they failed the qualifications test.

I'd have probably shot the guy too. Swinging a chair is going to bring a lot more momentum than a simple nightstick or ASP is going to be able to block.

The guy is a "victim" of his own choice to assault a police officer.
