I would expect to be forcibly removed. This could very well entail dragging/carrying me out.

If I became violent, then, yes, instruments such as billy clubs, pepper spray, and (gasp) tasers can be used. Until that point, though, only non-violent acts should be taken by the cops.

Also, the point of view that says "the kid could have pulled a knife!! taser him, just in case" doesn't make sense to me. How does tasering him help prevent him from pulling a knife? Cuff him, restrain him, drag him out. Why didn't the cops do that?
