In the space of 30 seconds, a clusterfuck occurred where a half dozen cops were stabbed, several of which (3 possibly 4) died from their wounds. I’ve tried unsuccessfully to track down the footage.
A person armed with a knife, intent on stabbing people can do a hell of a lot of damage in a very short space of time, Taze the fuckers or shoot them, do not attempt to grapple with a knifeman.
My 2 cents.

That's my thoughts, I don't see this type of scenario being played out in practical reality. Any sort of movement renders those contraptions completely redundant. It's only a short step removed from throwing a fishing net over the perp.

Yeah, that ‘demonstration’ in the video was ridiculous, pinning him down with a forked stick like he’s a snake, I half expected to see an attempt to extract venom from the guy.
