Taser as a backup?

  Hey guys,heard that SPF gonna test the use of tasers huhz?Well,so will there be a change of the ROE when officers are issued with tasers?as its classified as a less-then-lethal weapon.And will the control of the use of tasers be as tight as that of the revolver?If so...when will the officer on the streer be permitted to use the taser and when will he be permitted to use the revolver?
  
  As the way i see it,the more equipment,the more burden in a sense.And there may be tendency for the officer to grab the wrong weapon at the wrong time as both have to be holstered.lastly,with the issuing of the taser,will the issuing of firearms be exclusive to STAR,SOC etc.in the future?

  Prison I tot is using those Mace gas or something equavilent to it.Hmmz....anyway,I'm wondering...where on earth are you guys gonna holster the taser on your duty-belt.And how often will it be used...as the propulsion of the gas has a "used by" date.
  
  So will any of you be getting it?Haha,am wondering...during this trail period,any suspect who tries to be aggressive and takes aggressive actions you guys will unholster and hit the LAM(laser aiming module) to aim at tt guy and fire the prods,to help SPF test the taser's effectiveness ahz?Haha...jokes aside now,how does the SPF gonna evaluate the taser by allowing cops to bring it out for duty on the street?
