Ever seen someone thrown out of a club by the bouncers?
I have, on a number of occasions.
Now, if one or two bouncers can throw drunk and violent individuals out of a club without using restraints and without striking or beating these individuals with either their hands or any implement - why, on earth, can't these police officers handle this situation without using Tasers?
In my country we are fortunate enough not to have our police routinely armed with either firearms or tasers; yet, I have no doubt, they'd have been perfectly capable of removing a non-compliant student from a building.
This situation could clearly have been resolved without use of a Taser. That is was used
at all speaks very poorly of the officers involved. That it was used repeatedly shifts this from being a case of poorly trained officers dealing with a situation badly to being a case of needless brutality.
