The police's actions were not excessive. In order to remove someone they first took steps to calm him and remove him politely. The only "force" they used was the actual tazing and lifting the student out of the room.
The person who was tazed, went there that day to make a scene. Before the tazer was ever pulled out he begun shouting "Don't taze me bro!" His actions led to the incident. The officers didn't encite him to act violently and they didn't act violently themselves.
Police often abuse their power but it did not happen in this case. If the student had left politely after his outburst, there would have been no problem. He could have even gone kicking and screaming, he was intentionally causing a distruption so it makes sense. Rather he rooted himself to the spot and wouldn't move.
He wasn't even protesting anything. Sit ins, hunger strikes, etc. are all peaceful ways to bring light to a problem. All this student wanted to do was to cause problems.
P.S. No I don't support Kerry.
