The thing with using force with a tazer in relation to being a police officer is that if an officers pulls out a gun and gives the strong suggestion to freeze most people know they aren't going to pull the trigger however if there suggesting you freeze and they have their tazer out one can bet they gonna use it and that's "justfiable."
