    Violence? If the guy was behaving as depicted he would have been difficult to remove from the building without injury; using a tazer minimalized injury to the man or the officers, and I think using it was justified.

    How about muscles? Almost all of the police officers looked a lot stronger than him, a tight grip and off he goes, the taser is just a new toy they like to use I guess, maybe I should get one and use it on my little sister when she doesn't comply with me.

    Taser leaves no lasting injury. I can imagine being roughed up with "muscles" might, and would result in an even larger outcry.

    The police in the UK are allowed to use tazers (those that have them they are still being moved out) against suspects who are posing a physical threat to themselves or to the public.

    If that police report is correct then they had every right to tazer him as he was physically resisting arrest

    Based on Sasaki's Arresting Officer's report, he'll probably win that. He was forcibly restrained and Tazed before he was Mirandized.

    His intent of publicity is irrelevant.

    IMO. (and IANAL).

    What does IANAL mean?

    It sounds disgusting!
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.
