The officers could have used thier own strength but that could also cause more pain, and long term effects than the Tazer, which is why I feel the Tazer was the best option for the officers. If the officers used some of the submission holds on the subject they could have snapped his arm in two. The Tazer is more of a tool so that officers and "clients" are not possibly injured for long periods of time, due to hand fighting. The Tazer is just meant as a tool for the officers to subdue a subject that is not complying with there orders. We should be happy we live here in the US. Other countries they would not care about you feelings and making sure that you were not hurt / injured, they would just beat you retarded and then throw you in a cell and leave you there.
UCLA police repeatedly Tased Mostafa Tabatabainejad, a student who was asked to leave the library because he did not display a student ID. According to newsreports, the student initially refused to leave Tuesday night, then got up and headed for the door. An officer then allegedly grabbed him by his shoulder, at which point Tabatabainejad can be heard yelling, "Get off me!" It was at that point that an officer first Tased him, causing him to fall to the floor.
Police Tased him at least once more before he left, after he went limp and officers repeatedly ordered him to stand up. I would imagine the officers, who would not identify themselves to bystanders, did not know portions of the event were being videotaped.
