The UoF Student Tasing Incident

Could some one explain to me what the fuck was going on in there, 'cause I sure didn't get it.

I could understand that the Florida student was behaving quite disrespectively to John Kerry, and was obviously asking too many questions, and not very innocent questions as well. In fact, from his attitude it seemed like was trying to turn the whole forum into some kind of a scandal.
What I did not get, though, was how it all very quickly ended with him being "tased", and arrested? Was he arrested? And what came up of this whole incident, was he justified and the police punished, or the other way around?

And what are your opinions about it? Do you think he deserved it? Do you think attempting to sabotage the speech and start a scandal with his attitude? Or did he have the right to ask all of his questions without interruption?

The guy may have been acting inappropriately, but I certainly don't believe he should have been tased for it...

This reminds me of that incident where a guy didn't have a identification card. What the heck is wrong with some police? I guess those "some" out of all the police are just getting crazier!... >_>

Apparently the kid was known for causing trouble. And he asked a question along the lines of "What do you think of Bush and do you think he should be impeached" or something like that.

What I don't get is Kerry was willing to answer the kid and was telling police that, but they wouldn't listen.

I think that the student got tased not simply for asking questions, but when being taken by the police, trying to start a mess instead of cooperating. I mean, the police is taking you away, shut the fuck up! But no!
"Hey! Hey! What are you arresting me for? I didn't do anything! Let me go! Help! Help! Don't tase me, bro!"
*ZAP* *ZAP*
"Ahhhhhh! Ahhhhh!" 

i think the last thing you should say if you don't want a cop to use a taser gun on you is shouting to him not to tase you, calling him "bro". ;D

They don't want anyone knowing about all this. Face it, this country is fascist, and the 7 Amendents no longer exist.

It's just those powerhungry cops getting their kicks by torturing the innocent.  Isn't there a sale at a donut shop somewhere?

You would have probably join the society, wouldn't you? Just for the name.  ;D

Also, seven? I guess you don't respect your parents, enjoy killing and worship statues, am I right?

I mentioned all 7, so poo to you.

Also, I wouldn't join that society just for the name. It's boring and generic.  ;D

I think he deserved to get tased! Well sort of. The guy was plainly being an ass.

If he were a member here, he'd be banned under the "Don't be an ass" Rule =P

Well I think he was just trying to be funny by asking dumb questions >.> and he got his laugh..... when he was tased. The world is laughing at him.

And freedom of speech is all well and good, but when the cops are asking you to leave, you should leave. Saying "Hes been talking for two hours" ain't helping.

That rule is still in effect? You had me fooled.

Anyway..

He asked 3 completely legitimate questions, in a public place, during a public speaking. They had like 4-5 cops taking this kid down, and they still had to tase him while he was in handcuffs?

Yea.. He completely deserved that. >.> (And if you don't get the sacrasm, please pull your head out of your ass.)
