“Turn around and put your hands behind your back NOW,” repeated twice by a police officer holding a Taser shouldn’t be met with “What the heck is your problem?” and walking away, in my opinion.

BTW, that’s how deaf people end up getting beat up by cops and guards so often. The officer thinks his target hears him, but he doesn’t. Absent eye contact in these situations, the cop has no justifiable grounds to just sneak up and taser a guy from the rear.
