Just curious if these police was in the wrong and they had no legitimate reason to detain and subsequently tazer and I assume arrest him. How come did they let him keep a copy of the video? If they are bad cops they would have taken the video as well.
The video clips of the G20, protesters was violent and breaking the law. They do not know how to peacefully protest. So the police had to use force to contain the situation.

Just a thought : How does a cop with a taser know if a person has a heart, brain condition or not? Their choice is actually defined by self-defence Or defined by attempted murder. They didn't first discover if the victim could take a taser shot. What would a good victim's rights lawyer say?
they may not be aliens , but they are inhumane and cold blooded.

Heh, heh, that's the first post I've starred on ATS. You only left out the aliens, but then you'd get labeled a nut case, so that's cool.
I am shocked that there is someone that says that EVERYTIME they ask a cop a question that they are polite and all. For me, typically security guards and cops put their hand on their gun and threaten instant death for ignoring them and minding my own business. Maybe it's just that you're like a non-black American, so you get the preferential treatment. When they smile, ignore them don't smile back so you find out how free you are on the spot.

At age 55 , and still with some backbone left- if you aimed a taser at me
I would see that as life threatening , and if i had the means i would kill you.
i would run you over and keep going.
