Being rude is not a taserable offense. Being uncooperative is not a taserable offense.
Being a threat is.
I fail to see how this rude, uncooperative asshole became a threat by being obnoxious. He threw no punches and was unarmed.
If being rude and uncooperative were justification for a tasering then the majority of Americans would peel darts out of their chests at some point or another in their lifetimes. Including yours truly.
