I guess things are different up in New Hampshire. I do agree the guy could have used better judgement. I just doubt that three cops needed to employ a taser to take control of the situation. Are you a NH cop?

Multiple other witnesses say that it did not happen that way:

There are at least 4 videos of the event, so we should find out the truth eventualy.

>>It stinks but we have to be cleaner than the other guys.<<

You betcha...this is exactly what Biden, et al salivate for.

Does anyone else think this guy could have been planted there to cause a disturbance?

He got what he deserved.

You are a good model citizen comrade, please let us know the names and addresses of all of the Tea Party people in your neighborhood and you won’t be sent to the Alaskan re-education camps.... for now...

The video where the guy put his hands on the officer and then struggled with them for a good minute or so after they stated he was under arrest:

Gene, I was also an eyewitness to all that occurred. Although I am a strong believer in holding police, here or anywhere, accountable for over-reactions, abuse of power, &/or brutality, I was relieved by & approved of their actions today. The counter protesters were revving up for violence, many brandishing their automatic, massacre style weapons, yelling out violent rhetoric. The police responded to a potentially disasterous situation. This guy ended up being the fall guy, because the violent energy calmed down after he was removed. But he was a 100% participant in creating a untenable situation that the police HAD to respond to. He was NOT a random victim.**

Technically, the guy was resisting arrest.
Once a cop says "You're under arrest!", it's not really negotiable.
This reflects badly on all of us.

[Daffynition]

That is always a possibility...like the guy with the AR at our capitol rally....no one seemed to recognize him from any local club...that was what the whisper in the crowd was.

[corlorde]

He tried to face the officer in the other direction, and then he struggled with them for about a minute after they told him he was under arrest:

I was wondering why he was standing next to the podium and not among the audience.
Intentional provocation is entirely possible.
Will be interesting if we ever get to know his real background.

[RedStateRocker]

All hecklers should be tasered. Repeatedly. Right or left.

Free speech should not include the right to interrupt when someone else is speaking.

Rude is rude; if it’s not worth risking or taking life then STFU until it’s your turn to speak.

The treacherous tyranny is here, now. The path is well worn an the bodies of tea party supporters are trampled into it’s mud

A ridiculous out of context statement.

Thanks for contributing to the thread.

...like the guy with the AR at our capitol rally...

I do not go armed to rallies.
It's far too likely someone will deliberately misconstrue my intentions.
Or misrepresent my role in it if some quarrel does break out.

The comments on this thread tell me everything I knew regarding where our Country will end up.

[DTogo]

Just like all the tasings and thug-cop takedowns during Occupy Wall Street...

NOT.
