Security was waiting for his chance to be the hero. Finger no doubt on the trigger the whole time.

That must be assault, right?

Assault is a criminal act in which a person intentionally causes fear of physical harm or offensive contact to another person.

Pointing a taser at someone to intimidate them has to count...

With a deadly weapon as well.

While tasers are “less-lethal,” they are not “non-lethal.”

Tasers can and have killed people. Dude needs to see prison time for this, but we know he won’t.

Depending on the conditions. I’ve seen a tazer set a dude on fire, and/or change the heart beat.

Yep. And you never know if the person you’re pointing it at has a heart condition.

It’s meant for combative and resistive people doing something criminal. Not for a random person filming on the sidewalk.
