Tasing of Student at Kerry Rally

OK, can't let this one go. The media and the sheeple are all up in arms because a student who wouldn't follow the rules at a public event was tased after he resisted arrest. Let me be the first one to say that whether or not his conduct rose to the level of protected speech or criminal disorderly conduct (or similar Fl statute) is a good and needed debate after this event. I think if this kid wanted to speak to an elected official in a public forum and he was prevented from doing so, he can concede to his arrest and challenge it court to his heart's content and I might come out on his side. BUT, he loses ANY sympathy in my book when he started fighting the officers. He should have been tased the second he pushed that female officer and they were EXTREMELY patient with him to wait as long as they did to use any force against someone who was physically resisting his arrest. He obviously was struggling on the ground and the taser made him comply, that is its job. I feel sorry for the officers having to deal with the f$ing idiots yelling police brutality when they acted patiently and professionally, and used only the force necessary to get this moron under control. If you physically resist an officer, EXPECT force will be used to bring you under control. Even if you think you are in the right. The place to challenge your arrest is in court, not by fighting the police.
