There's no way you could've taken a taser and taken her down?
Can Seattle PD even carry tasers?

Are cops even allowed to carry them and use them on another human any more?

Yes, lets have a mentally ill woman right next us with a knife. Sounds like a solid choice.

Probably not

The Seattle Police Department has been operating under a federal consent decree since 2012, when a Department of Justice investigation found that officers used regular and widespread excessive force on the job, reported the Seattle Times.

A court-ordered federal monitor issued a report in April asserting that the department had made a positive turnaround and that use of force by officers was down, reported the Times.
