My bet is this...
Cop "Hey fella, put the hammer down." (Calm talking approach)
Shithead "Get fucked pig, I'm gonna smash your brains out" as he heads toward him.
Cop has two options, run? The guy is faster than him and takes him out with a hammer to the back of the head... hmmm.....
Confront? Yep, it is what we have to do, we have been called, we now have to do something..... Now he is advancing with a weapon and he is only a few feet away. Make a decision on what weapon to use? Spray? Shit probably won't work, end result, dead cop. Baton? Against a hammer? Maybe... big maybe... result, dead cop, probably... Tackle and overpower? He is a martial arts expert, end result, dead cop. While weighing up all these "options" he is closer than ever, still intent on seeing his hammer imbedded inside your skull.
All concentration on drawing and using your gun to ensure you go home to your family safe and well?
Hmmmmmm..... choices, choices....
