He had no ID, he is supposed to. Period. He was asked to leave because he could not be identified as a student, he did not, and he is a trespasser. Period. The law officials on campus asked him to leave, he did not, and he broke the law. He resisted, he was tasered with the light setting rather then dragging him out. He was not beaten, he was not assaulted, he was tasered, it is an uncomfortable experience, but it is not painful. If he had just left when asked, it all would have been over. He resisted, and that is wrong. If a cop tells you to do something, you do it, unless it is grossly wrong, then if you disagree with it, you complain later. This kind of passive resistance does not help, especially when you are clearly in the wrong. This student was clearly breaking the rules, and then the law.
No one said it was justified to taser some one for forgetting your ID. That was not the issue. The issue was he was asked to leave for breaking the rules, he refused, he was no longer welcome in the library for breaking the rules and since he refused to leave, he is a trespasser. Period.
Because you did not read the rules I posted earlier, here they are again, plaine and simple

The Library will refuse access to its facilities, resources, or services to anyone who disrupts the use of the facilities by others or is disrespectful to other library users or employees. People who are unwilling to abide by these regulations will be asked to leave, and those refusing to do so will be subject to removal by security personnel and may not be allowed further access to the libraries.
