He was disrupting a debate or whatever (remember I have no sound card on this cpu.) And after CONSTANT warnings he still refused.... It's one thing to have your say.. WHICH HE DID.... But then it is another thing to disrupt the peace

And ignore officers of the freaking law. THE LAW!
Okay, 17th. Here's the deal, he was not 'disrupting a debate.' This event was not a debate. This, I believe, was an event where Senator John Kerry came down to an university in Florida and gave a talk. After he was done with his talk, he and the event producers opened the floor up to questions, as they often do at these things. I have been to many events like this one. When the speaker is done with the main event, there are often mics set up and people from the audience have an opportunity to ask questions. This child was taking his opportunity and using it to make a point and ask several questions. He had waited his turn, I believe, and had followed proper procedure.
The powers that be did not like his tone, his attitude, and his presentation. They can be seen in the video exerting verbal pressure: "Ask your question," to which he responds, "I am going to ask my question, but I want to inform people first." He challenges Kerry on some points and issues: "Why did you concede the election in 2004 so quickly?" he asks.
I am providing you with some relevant details, 17th, as I understand that you
have no sound on your cpu and therefore haven't really watched the video. You have watched a pantomime and projected onto it your own preconceptions and judgements. It's kind of like watching
The Wizard of Oz all stoned or trippin' with the sound turned down and
Pink Floyd's album
Dark Side of the Moon turned up. Know what I mean?

wink wink, nudge nudge
Please, before jumping to any more conclusions, 17th, do me a favor. Watch the video with the sound turned up.

I also think, perhaps many of you have innocent eyes... You haven't seen much of the world of "violence" and "order".... This is a walk in the park, trust me, no need for arms around the world... There is no brutality here... This was done correct... They cautioned. They warned, the attempted to calm the situation down, they tried to remove him from the area... Still trying to make it as much of a problem as possible... Bam, taser, obedience please.... Thanks.
Simply disagree, thank you very much for your authoritative opinion. I know you are a prominent advocate of law and order and drug use.
I vaguely recall another debate? Scientology anyone? The man became angry and started shouting, screaming causing a scene...... I can't recall sorry, did the majority say his way of getting something across was right? I can't remember...

Remind me....
lolz...
are you referring to Tom Cruise?? Was Tom Cruise arrested for his beliefs? Was he hassled, tasered, forcibliy silenced? Or was he just subject to public murmurings and sneering ridicule for what he believes in? Big difference in my mind, and a much more
appropriate response.
kthnx
My final Verdict: You're all over reacting, and he had it coming.
And still: I disagree. You are justifying and blowing off state-sponsored violence.
