I think I was clear in giving options that didn't resort to violence, in which case I agree about getting involved, depending on the situation the extent varies.
If someone is being tazed (as per video) or raped (as per an example you outlined above) you implied people should get involved. I doubt telling an officer who is raping a girl "excuse me sir, but I believe she said 'no' therefore you should refrain from placing your who-ha in her bajingo" would necessarily do the trick
So we've eliminated physically restraining the perpetrator (police officer) therefore what would you do?

Lets give you this example, as a reply, maritime. If my dad and me were out doing something and for whatever reason my dad was being tasered by a single cop, I would try and put myself in between my dad and the cop. Shielding him with my own body, which the students could have done.
If the cops then decided to start tasering 3, 4, 5 students, then it escalates again. But the cops then have a choice to make. Do we keep tasering this guy and other innocent bystanders, or, do we remove ourselves from the situation.
What about the Polish guy who was **edit**
manslaughtered by the RCMP with a taser? He could have used an advocate.
