THERE may have been some initial resistance...but then the cop started "playing for the camera" and kept tazing him and kept repeating the words "stop resisting, stop resisting" for the camera...
...which is what they are trained to do for the camera so that all of us think that the person is struggling even when he may NOT in fact be struggling anymore. In this case, as you can see, a few seconds after the cop was repeating "stop resisting" the guy in fact was NOT even breathing, because he was dead.
The cops use the words "stop resisting" as a ploy for audio or video tape whether or not the person is actually resisting. They say "stop resisting" so that they can, subsequently, defend any and all physical actions and excessive force they may use against the person. It's unethical and cowardly.
Most cops are decent people but they are trained to do this by their attorneys (ie the department attorneys who are the real cowards and creeps...; if they would train the cops to be real men and act with discretion and honesty in every situation, this kind of thing wouldn't happen. It's the creepy attorneys and union people who turn cops into creeps.
