I was pleased to read the Saturday article by Scott North, regarding pepper spray use by a local law enforcement officer. This demonstrates to other officers that it can work to try another option other than drawing your weapon.
I am not an anti-gun nut, but I am very weary of hearing about law enforcement officers going for their side arm too quickly in too many situations. Use the gray between your ears first.
