Your statement reminds me of watching Wildest Police Videos when a cop hits someone who's fleeing and then gets on the radio and goes, "HE JUST RAMMED ME!!!" hahahaha

Should he have been prepared for a threatening action? YES, absolutely, he should've had the Taser drawn and ready to go. In the meantime he should've been treating the suspect with courtesy and respect. He did neither.

How do you give a guy courtesy and respect when he is not obeying your orders? That man could of had a gun and the officer had to treat him accordingly. I hope the police use this as a training video as an example of how to handle this situation. I don't see where the officer did ANYTHING wrong.
