UCLA Officers Use Taser on ID-less Student

It isn't the job of campus security to administer punishment. That is for the courts. And yet, the actions that the guards took smells more like punishment to me.

I see no reason why this situation couldn't have been efficiently handled without a need to taser this person, not only once, but twice. Why were 3 guards not able to handcuff this person and remove him from the building? If he had been punching and kicking them, perhaps I could see the necessity but it was an act of peaceful resistance and shouldn't have been met with this type of force. Had they not had a taser, would they have shot him?

I think he was wrong to resist and should have had his ID card, but this just goes too far, IMO.
