No way!? I don't care if the kid was talking on the mic too long, or wouldn't shut up. Maybe we couldn't hear clearly, but I didn't hear a "Sir, you need to sit down" or "Sir, can you please leave?" or "Sir, we're going to arrest you if you don't sit down quietly."
He barely resisted in the beginning, and made an obvious move to leave. No one was being threatened or harassed, and John Kerry, of all people, was trying to tone the situation down.
What those officers did was stretch the right arm of the law out of some factor of entitlement because there was a presidential candidate there.
That said, he got tazered because he wouldn't shut up and let them carry out their injustice, and that's going to hurt him in the long run. If he really wanted to make a statement, he should have simply kept saying "I'm being arrested for asking questions" and let them do whatever they were going to do. Instead he screamed bloody murder and ruined any possible grounds over the unjust arrest.
