If you're being charged by a young 292 pounder, you'd better pull the first weapon you can. Just like bentway would.

Every cop has at least 2 places to go before he needs to draw a gun on an unarmed person: Mace , Taser , Nightstick

Don't know about a night stick on 300lb guy but empty 1/2 can of capsicum Bear Spray right off the bat will stop/slow anyone and has 20ft of distance in spray pattern=cannot miss. That would give any officer plenty of time to employ a Taser follow-up, though Bear Spray could harm officer's vision if he didnt back away.

(then if necessary a well placed round in the knee cap, at least he's alive and not going anywhere or then use the night stick )

But traders agreed on the Taser idea...

Then there is an option to equip police with wearable body cameras ( like the GoPros), they can easily accomodate digital devices now.

Recent current events in Ferguson, Missouri have led to an increase in media attention relating to police body cameras, including an article in The Wall Street Journal titled 'What Happens When Police Officers Wear Body Cameras,' noting that force by officers declined 60%; an article in Time titled 'California Mayor Urges Cops to Wear Body Cameras After Ferguson,' where Hawthorne Mayor Chris Brown is introducing an ordinance for the police to begin wearing body cameras; and a Fox article titled 'Ferguson violence prompts call for same type of police body cameras being tested in Indiana.' Digital Ally, which is up 80%, develops, manufactures and markets digital video imaging, audio recording and related storage products for use in law enforcement, including a miniature digital video system designed to be worn on a individual's body.
