i guess i'd disagree.
edit: im not saying this guys life was in danger, again, trying to establish if a line exists with anyone.
police are here to serve and protect the law abiding citizens of the land. not to go on power trips and and harass people. this particular cop had a history and decided to single out the one guy cuz he looked different. and he was leaving when tough guy decided to escalate the situation.

The student failed to produce ID in a closed area and was asked to leave when he refused to do so. At this point, the officer with the history was brought in. The student was confrontational and refused to leave again despite being in a closed area where ID was required.
I contend that a "law abiding citizen of the land" would take the 12 seconds of his life to show student ID to an officer who is just doing their job. This student had a chip on his shoulder and was looking for problems - I have no problem with him being tazed at all.
