I definitely have a problem with tasing a kid that is just waving a a towel in the air at a slow jog. No reasonable person would consider him dangerous in that situation. He shouldn't have been on the field but it didn't warrant a tasing. Tackle him and be done with it.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
And what would have happened if he got tackled and broke his arm while falling to the ground or got hurt worse? Then people would have said that the force was too much. The way I see it is that 1) this kid KNOWS better than to do that 2) Instead of continuing to let this kid waste time the security guard decided to stop it 3) It didn't look like he kept shocking him, the kid wasn't twitching or anything (from what I saw).
Again, i have no problem with what they did, I think tasering the kid was much safer than someone tackling him like a linebacker. No one got down and put a knee in the middle of his back as they cuffed him and they didn't throw him around or anything to get the cuffs on. Maybe I am ruthless, but i see nothing wrong with what anyone did there EXCEPT for the dumbass that ran out onto the field.
