If you were that officer and a 70 year old woman was disobeying your direct authority, would you tase her? For me, I think he did the right thing. Its the least overpowering way to seem gentle in this situation. I dont know anything I would have done differently.

I wasn't there but it seems to me that a lot of these cops are just out of control. It certainly could have been worse. I have a friend whose aunt was tased and shot. I know old people can be difficult sometimes but I think tasing should be used in cases where the officer feels that his safety is being threatened not just whenever he's mad because somebody isn't listening to him.
