No disrespect meant, but people who think like this SHOULD join their local police department. It’s easy as hell to say what they should have done, when you have never been in that type of situation.
This is why we will soon have a police shortage in this country.
I don't think any police department wants an 81 year old woman.
Putting one's self in tense situations one has never encountered is what training is all about. It needs to be second nature, so emotions like fear do not take control.
The one thing a cop needs to be able to do is identify and control their own fears. If they can't do that, they need to get another job.
(Insert random restaurant name) we close at ... but our drive in closes at ... or whenever someone falls asleep in the drive in lane. Whichever happens first.
Part of each and every Atlanta cop's training includes being tasered, so they know what happens.
They don't get tasered by a drunken violent criminal who has just assaulted them.
But you are right they know what happens. The fear is not the shock of the device, it is fear of being incapacitated and at the mercy of a drunken violent criminal who has just assaulted them. This isn't complicated.

you’re right. I’ve been predicting the same thing.
Democrats are outraged at their local Dem politicians. Will they start to vote them out of office, or keep making the same mistakes?
Atlanta's baseball team, the Braves, already ditched the city of Atlanta for greener pastures in the burbs. This round of riots could cause more economic decline. Maybe they'll burn down the new Football stadium since its owned by a White guy...Arthur Blank of Home Depot fame. Why not the Coca Cola headquarters too?
I hope the upscale stores in Phipps Plaza & Lennox Mall have cleared out their inventories, and boarded up their storefronts.
It looks like Atlanta is going to be burned to the ground again, like it was during the civil war.
I don't see this is attracting any new Democrat voters, and some may be thinking of leaving the party after all of the violence. the Democrat party is in total fracture <6 months from the elections.
Coming soon only a few police will carry guns and when someone with a machete kills the cops will have to call in a gun toting cop to put a stop of it. Such is england....
Don’t worry, Biden will solve this by ughh banning DUIs
That’s right, everyone has a civil right to pass out drunk in the middle of a drive through.
Wendy’s should expect some lawsuits! How dare they call those racist cops.
The lawyers are saying the cops should have called him an Uber . So, I guess they think that you should be able to drive under the influence putting other's lives at risk, and your only punishment is to go home by Uber.
