I'd rather take a clubbing over a taser any day. I'd rather have some bruised or broken ribs rather than to have my heart stop.

I kind of agree with what the other person said about increasing the physical requirements. Around here it is common to see women officers that are 5'2".

There should be a strict physical limit for a job like this, same goes for fire fighters. How is a 105 lb woman going to drag someone out of a burning building, just as an example.
