It's called reading between the lines, and an (apparently futile?) effort at humor -- or is that humour.

You are welcome to send a bonus payment to your local electricity provider, if that will ease your guilt.

"The thing I hate about these comments, is the reverse is exactly true as well."

That's mighty clever, but no one was asserting anything contrary.
They are both dangerous, potentially disabling or lethal.
That's why the police are trained in applying the minimal force required that's consistent with the threat.

"[manhandling] would have caused a hell of a lot more long-term injury to her than simply getting tazed would."

It's not as though anyone has died from being tazed before.

Oh wait.

(ones == constitutions, sorry)

Supposedly even their 1971 and 2011 ones were subservient to sharia ("the principal source of legislation").

Considering that in sharia, blasphemy (and so many other acts) can be punished with death, he got off light.

"Yes, that's really quite upsetting. ... "

Yup.

"should I be cheering Google ... or should I be upset ..."

Dunno, how about neither.

"But it currently seems that people who have enough money can completely avoid having to pay taxes on most of it."

(Are you confusing wealth and income? Are you confusing tax rates and tax amounts?)

"should I be angry at them for using their wealth to shift more of the burden onto me?"

You might start by being angry at the size of the burden.

"... just ... chop them up ..."

Wow, you have a strange imagination.

"What system do you think is reasonable for handling the problem?"

Well, not the Marxism that you got to in just a few rounds. How about viewing taxation as a necessary evil. That would stop people crowing about how the rich deserve to pay yet more, blah blah, as if it were morally righteous to do yet greater evil to them/us. There should be a gratitude and regret for having to tax, and a moral impetus to explain and minimize it. Government would shrink.

From each according to his means, to each according to his need, got it.

Only wild-eyed lefties would imagine that the bulk of taxation actually advances civilization and fairness. To the rest of us, taxation is a tolerable legally mandated taking, best done in small amounts and on wise expenditures.

"If they don't want this stuff provided for them ..."

Are you sure you want to go there? That way lies the treatment of government as a provider of monopoly infrastructure services. If you teach people to expect value for their (tax) money, they may get a touch upset if so much of it simply goes into wealth transfers to someone else.

"Someone has to pay those things. "

Right, and it has to be someone other than us. Maybe Santa?

"tax havens that are effectively stealing from the US and European treasuries"

That's glorious turnaround: instead of considering taxation is theft - supposedly it's non-taxation that is theft.
