Deputy's taser ineffective, suspect's rifle works just fine

More news of deputies bringing a taser to a gun fight.

"...The taser apparently didn't work, and [the suspect] grabbed a .22 calibre bolt action rifle and squeezed off a shot [hitting the deputy, Lt. Craig Ammons, in the arm]..." [LINK]

[We wish Lt. Ammons a speedy recovery.]

Now, do you think that the suspect would have reached for his rifle if he had been staring back at a police revolver?

Geesh, do you think maybe tasers have been oversold?
