How the fuck are police and guards supposed to deal with violent people? Aromatherapy? Aesthetic Decor? The violent behaviour is getting worse every year.
This is a huge mistake.
How about the same way they dealt with violent people before handheld electrocution devices?
Open hand combat and batons. Sounds good to me.
Look how the German Polizei was able to overpower a man in Berlin's main railway station: no Tasers were used.
Fox's got some pictures too.
Police psychologists were sent in to talk to the man, who appeared to be confused and possibly under the influence of drugs, before he was overpowered by plain-clothed officers.
"Only a small part of the station was cordoned off, and rail traffic continued unimpeded, Mr Polley said. No one was injured."
Wayne, you and your police guards should really try aromatherapy. It will help you relax.
