I don't use my ASP for anything except killing spiders.
I know that strikes to the head are normally a no-no. The other day I saw a video of a LPO using his ASP to defend himself against a gang of youths who attacked him after he and the store manager stopped the youths for shoplifting. I estimate his ASP at 26/28" and he was aiming for the head.
Normally, I would consider that excessive force. But in this situation, he was definitely out numbered 2 or 3 to 1. I thought that if I were in his shoes, I'd probably do the same thing since these gang members wanted to hurt him bad.
What is your position on this?
