Blah, blah, blah
You mean the guy who now has a nervous tick and stutters like Mel Tillis.
The cop overreacted. He's clearly out of shape and thus lacked the confidence to deal with an unarmed, mouthy motorist. Those f... tasers ought to be banned for the number of innocent folks they've killed through misuse and abuse by law enforcement.
Just another LEO with a big gun, badge and overpowered Dodge Charger.

I didn't see the tasable crime here.
Pretty sure someone knows the "Tased" guy ...........
What if the officer was an average citizen with a gun permit - could he legally shoot the guy (fearing for his life)?He wasn't tazed for breaking the law, he was tazed for approaching the cop like a threat IMO.
The threshold for less than lethal force is probably lower.
Although many department policies (post Freddy Grey) now may have a retreat and/or de-escalation component.

Ever hear of excessive use of force? Yeah, just go ahead and blow a crazy, unarmed dude away and see how a jury and judge handles that. Better pack your lunch for a long vacation in Attica. This fella looked like he was on drugs or drunk. He made a bad mistake rushing fatso.
