I’m the first to criticize the police for heavy-handed or abusive behavior, but this student did not get tazed for asking questions or going off topic. He got tazed for resisting the police who were trying to get eject him from the building.

The student willfully disrupted a public event by deciding to superimpose his own format and rules, defiantly declaring that he would not yield because “he [Kerry] had two hours.” Never mind that there is nothing wrong with inviting Kerry to speak for two hours and limiting questions to one minute per audience member, the fact is that the student was ordered to leave because he decided that he was in charge and damn the rules and consideration for the rights of others. Did he think that everyone there that day would get to do their own two-hour attention-seeking performance piece?

The police responded to a request to remove him and he was tazed because he was resisting. He did not have the right to physically resist a lawful order to leave the premises.

And, apparently, the tazing worked because the student stopped resisting after they tazed him, bro.

I don’t think they had to start to arrest him in the first place. His questions might have been impolite and out of line, but there was a senator on the stage who should be able to fight those off within the flick of an eye. Force against verbal questions, although unwanted, is not what any decent police in a democracy should use.

Very bad image this is sending into the world now.

On the other hand, he didn’t really have a reason to be done. Great for him to stand-up for his right at first, but he should have realized he crossed the line.

How exactly was he out of line? Asking uncomfortable questions? Not shutting up because the police want you to? If that’s your definition of out of line, well, its only a few steps from there to thought crime.

Doesn’t the US have constitutionally protected Free Speech? To me this would seem simply illegal. But IANAL, so maybe I’m wrong. If it is illegal, I would really like to see heads roll over this, and any similar incidents to illustrate to law enforcement the seriousness of this issue, if its not, I think there needs to be a revision in the laws…..

If you disagree with the police officer’s escalation of force that was displayed, then attack the PD’s policies and procedures. However, when a person is warned THAT many times to quit resisting, he’s going to get what’s coming to him.

If the time ever comes that I’m in that situation where officers are attempting to detain or have their hands on me, you can be dang sure I won’t be fighting. If they are in the wrong when they detain me and I’ve been very compliant, my case will look that much better in court when I go to sue. :)

Bottom line, I say he got what was coming to him.

Albeit a bit of jackassery, there is nothing technically wrong with asking those questions.
