That's pretty self-evident, dk. He was acting like a fool and being stupid BEFORE the police ever came into the picture.

I will say, though, that while you may feel that disturbing the peace is a catchall charge for the police, I think we saw an example of it on tape. If nothing else, I expect you'll agree with me that he was being rude.

That said, the taser is in the "less-than-lethal" weapon catagory. It's meant to be used in place of a gun. It was not by any means appropriate in this situation in my opinion.
