What would you have the officers do?

It looks like you got plenty of answers in your question to me, all of which support my assertion that it was wrong to taser an eight month pregnant woman. The woman could have been arrested at home at a later time, or perhaps backup should have been called in this case. I'll ask my son, who is a police officer, what he would have done, and report back to this thread.

Well, I've never liked tasers. Too chancy for my tastes. I would have used a triangle hold with a nightstick. No bruises, no damage because you are not striking the individual and immediate compliance. Then the war would have been over and I would definitely not let her ever sign a ticket again.
