        Wow😳. All he needed to do is hand cuff him after he sat down. This police man needs fired. Mayors & Governors across America need to start finding a solution ☹️

        It took me a couple of minutes to understand the commands. Legs straight out and crossed is contradictory. Cop should have said "ankles crossed." Words matter. Why was there no warning he would be tased? I hope this man gets his justice. Interested in full video.

        He had no weapon, was not acting aggresive, sat as asked then the cop stuns him. Abuse of authority and he should be investigated.

        Exactly. They could’ve just went ahead and with the last prewritten press release and said the officer acted accordingly and we just don’t have the whole story.

        He was Not complying with their orders to lay down and put his hands straight out. Don’t make judgements unless you’ve been in this situation yourself.

        Not understanding isn’t the same as not complying. This is assault and should result in jail time....but by your avatar I’m sure if this person was shot in the head you’d be ok with it too. Isn’t it exhausting to keep making excuses for criminals?

        Right? These fucking morons think it’s ok to use excessive (if not lethal) force every time someone does something to the equivalent of losing a game of Simon Says. “I didn’t say Simon Says cross your legs...I can electrocute you now”. Fucking POS coward.

        And what kind of command sequence is that... All could of been avoided if the officer had the man put his hands behind his head. Instead, officer circles around to the man’s backside and then is out of clear view of the man’s hands...

        Everyone kills eachother, in every city. Police presence isn’t solely because of homicides either

        So you think it’s okay for a cop to assault a citizen who was following his and his partner’s orders? What does the murder rate between African Americans have to do with this situation? What about the rate of police abuse towards black citizens? That doesn’t factor in, right?

        Oh no! He mistook one of the many conflicting commands being shouted at him simultaneously! They should have shot him! I’m guessing the next time you are pulled over you would want the cops to treat you the same way, based on other people’s actions. Enjoy the ride buddy!
