So far (still early in the poll, by the way)
A student at a John Kerry appearamce in Florida was tasered by the police when he would not leave the podium quietly and resisted arrest. Did the cops do the right thing
Yes
17%
No
83%

btw Howie mentioned that Kerry changed the name of his
boat from the Scaramouche to the Let It Be. Apparently
that’s what Kerry did: he let the situation be as the
student got tasered.

I love the sound of liberals being tasered.

The words “police brutality” soon come out of their mouths.

I am listening to the audio of this on a radio show from Chicago.

This kid was stupid. When he would not shut up, I think I would have tazed him too.

Why didn't they do the same thing to Medea Benjamin and the Pinkos when they interrupted the Petraeus report?

I'd pay good money to see that.

I wasn’t the only one to think that, eh? That would mean
Kerry would have a fourth purple heart...

It is behaviour expected from our moonbat friends. They act up and then get offended when dealt with. Or if they’re in charge, they employ tactics that the Brownshirts would admire and then act surprised when others get offended.

Conservatives don’t tend to act up in stupid juvenile ways.

Howie’s producer Sandy just mentioned that the kid is just a jackass. He at one point held up signs at bookstores where the new Harry Potter book was being sold and the signs told
the kiddied HARRY DIES...

I’m generally in favor of Tasering students on principle.

They cops only made one mistake. They tasered one student who attend a Kerry fest. They should have tasered them all!

Me too, as I watched/listened I kept snickering. It felt weird it was like watching the bad guy get what he deserves in a movie. At the university locally the university police didn’t taser protesters but they did this pressure point thing on the student’s neck that made them pass out. Then they dragged them off, quietly. Maybe that wasn’t appropriate in this case.
