Then they started assaulting him with a taser, probably for making them walk across campus and taking away from coffee time.
That's the thing you clearly don't get. You can't just leave or ignore the request. For example, if you jaywalk and are asked for ID, you can't just 'leave'. That will get you arrested. If you continue to resist, police might resort to other use of force tactics at their disposal.

I don't really see the issue with the NYPD one. Admittedly, I ffwd some of it so maybe I missed something. But, if you commit some offense, whatever it is (in this case it looked like he interfered with what was going on there) you are required to produce ID. If you don't and act like a ######, there may be consequences.

With the pet ones, the only one that seems odd is the one where the dog is restrained on a lead. I wonder if there is a lot more to the story.

The chihuahua one is complete crap. IF a dog was shot, I am pretty sure they police wouldn't leave there rounds behind.

Remember that the level of training for police varies throughout the country and the world. Don't judge all police because of some hick town cop that was given a badge and a fun and is "learning" on the job. And comparing campus cops to real police? Seriously?
