Tazers and BC Polish men Don't mix

I don't often rant here, but this event in BC has me upset. I listened to CBC today, and the RCMP kept saying that "it’s better to use a tazer than a service firearm." Granted, it is better to not use a firearm - but are they trying to say that they would have simply walked up to this Polish fellow, and shot him??? That’s what they did with the tazer - good thing they didn't draw their guns...I guess.

In reality, isn't it better to get rid of these tazers? They are too easy to use, and take the place of good old-fashioned tackles - or reasoning! (?)
