My questions are:

-- What kind of car was it?

-- Why would you taser someone for doing this instead of just shouting at them like a normal person?

Edit: bonus for page snipe.

Well if it's in public/within view of children or presumably some similar situation in which it's in the public good to not just let him carry on and finish and he refuses to stop loving the exhaust and shouting isn't working then...

In America he'd probably be dead.

I read this as "instead of just shooting them like a normal person" and was highly confused for a second, but after consideration deemed it an appropriate response.

Sure, it seems like a good solution but pigs are smart. Now the pig knows that if he can get out of the yard he gets doritos.

Police are trained to work their way up the scale of force step by step until they get their way. If barking orders doesn't work, the taser comes out. It also comes out if you piss the cop off, or if he got a new taser and hasn't gotten to use it yet.

The ladder/scale of force is really a misnomer, and escalation should in theory only happen if the situation is escalating at the same rate - rather, police are taught to be ready and willing to move to a possible force solution depending on context.

That's the theory. In practice, it means that lethal force is authorized if a PoC is wielding a potentially dangerous set of functioning limbs.

Without context, that meat could be for shawarma, gyros, tacos al pastor, or döner kebab, which is the OG rotating meat on a vertical spit.

They're basically the same thing. It's only in the US that we think of "kebab" as meaning shish kebab, i.e. meat on a skewer.
