You are avoiding my question. And yes, you did put up a quite childish strawman..
I'll try once more before giving you up:
In situations where force is needed, what should officers use? Batons? Guns? Warning shots? Tasers? Pepper Spray? Brute Force? What is the alternative to tasing people that you find more tempting? Since you are particularly attacking this method of force. Try NOT to avoid the question this time please :)
Most people can agree that unlawfull violence is bad, police officers or not. Most people can agree that unproportional violence is bad. The hard part is actually drawing the line. What IS unproportional violence? What is unlawfull violence? What is undue use of force? When should one NOT use force? And the following, that I already have asked: When necesary, what means of force should be used? I guess we all agree that tasers are better than guns, but what about mace versus tasers? When and where?
You are grossly oversimplifying, that is the problem, that combined with a heavy strawman-use.
