I don't think its ridiculous to ask why you are getting pulled out of your house at 3am
You will never....let me repeat.. NEVER, come out on the positive side at that moment in time. If the arrest and actions are unjustified, you will have your chance in court and then a chance to file a civil suit if merited. But trying to argue and defy an officer when they have stated you are under arrest, will result in bad juju every single time.

I know that is how it is but that is ridiculous. We need a better class of cop

Watching the cellphone video it looks like he gets a few thousand volts to the side when the officer dives in at him before he becomes complaint and goes outside where he's then tasered again and beaten.
I don't think so. From the video shot outside, none of the 3 officers that enter the apartment ever have a taser or even handcuffs in their hands when they enter or exit the apartment. The one without a vest is going for either his baton or cuffs as he enters, but never appears to draw anything. The others don't even reach for anything.

From the snippets.. .it seems the first officer escalated the situation and didn't keep his composure very well.
That's why it would be nice to see more context. From the point the videos starts he goes right into respect my authoritah mode, but the videos don't start until the guy's arm is already up and I think the officer's got hold of his hand. What happened to get things to that point would go a long way towards answering the question of which party was most out of line.

I am constantly amazed that so many people can't grasp this simple concept.

Didn't the police officer have hold of his shirt for quite some time before actually telling him he was under arrest? Even after he directly asked him if he were being arrested or detained.
