Nobody has the moral high ground in this case. The video shows poorly trained officers unable to arrest a man and manage a crowd. The police waste several opportunities to subdue the subject. Belatedly tasering in drive-stun mode as a pain compliance tactic was absolutely unnessecary, unsuccessful, and counterproductive to gain control of the subject. While the subject was pumped with electricity, officers again miss several chances to take subject to the ground and obtain a full arrest. Officer with taser seems more focused on inflicting pain for pain's sake rather than effecting an arrest. The most disturbing aspect of this case is borne out here in the comment threads. Our country is ripe for a facist totalitarian movement who's scapegoats are at the ready. The vindictive public craves to see violence meted out and wants to see vigilante police beat down petty criminals. The public begs for police who are above the law. This Pandora's box is spinning out of control. God help us all.
