So when he is disruptive and asked to leave and doesn't do so, he should be ignored?? Oh please

He certainly did become "violent" first. Cops were attempting to remove him after he refused to leave when told. He began flailing his arms, swinging at cops, and trying to physically remove himself from their grasp while yelling "get away from me". The cops should not HAVE to fight some idiot because he can't follow simple directions. He was warned, continued to struggle, then was tazered. Not a huge deal, he is FINE!!! People get tazered voluntarily all the time, and cops are made to do it as part of training. It hurts for a second, but then you get over it.

Had they ignored him and pissed him off and he shot 50 people everyone would complain then too.
"They saw he was loony...why not try to escort him out"
"They saw he was combative...why not tazer him and get the situation under control"
< insert a million more similar complaints here >

The guy got the attention he wanted (which he wouldn't have gotten had he been ignored) he got a little shock....is completely fine, big deal.
