Comments on: Report Deems Student Tasering Justified

Investigation Of Incident At Univ. Of Florida Kerry Event Finds Police Acted Appropriately

[toldyouso21]

Then again, this is the same state where a video of guards beating a 14 year old and dragging and kicking his unconscious body before jamming ammonia up his nose and covering his mouth so that he could not breathe--resulted in an acquittal even though the boy died. Makes you wonder, exactly what is put in the water of places Bush and his siblings inhabit.....

My husband wants to know, why, the cops always have it their way?

Because of the video recorder.
Without the video recorder they would just shoot the guy and plant a gun on him or tell a hero story.
It happens all the time.
Don''t get me wrong, most cops are good (they keep their mouths shut for the bad ones).
Most reports are great for bird cages.
Have a nice day.

Tool..you''re getting a little harsh

Lets see..... No Tasers = shoot to kill if the club doesn''t stop you... Hhhhmmmmmm "shoot the ''juice'' to me Bruce" the odds of living improve dramatically.

They should have tasered his mouth. It may have stopped him making a fool of himself the world over. I live in the UK, and even I know about this fool.

Apparently he thinks he''s a comedian. Well watching the video certainly made me laugh.

[smirk5]

That student should have known. No asks about Skull and Bones and gets an answer. Be persistent and you get the taser. This is America. You don''t have the right to ask about skull and bones and actually hold your ground.

In my day the football coach would have got up and grabbed the guy by the collar and dragged him out....no taser, no incident, no big deal, and no story! Nothing sensational....just common sense.

Re: "In short, the FDLE determined that our officers acted well within state guidelines."- University of Florida President Bernie Machen

If these "guidelines" deem it appropriate to torture someone who is not a threat, by way of electrocution with a less-lethal 50,000 volt device, then I suggest that these "guidelines" are in need of a review, and that this man has no business acting as an administrator in a higher learning facility.

[rudy654-2009]

Did anyone expect them to determine anything different? Of course not. As for those of you who get a certain high off of this kind of abuse of authority, the day will come when you will have wished that you hadn''t been so quick to defend this krapp. But there probably will be no one left who will care what you think one way or the other. You will get what you wish for, you just won''t like it when it''s your turn.

[bb19631]

Isn''t it everyone''s right to be able to ask questions and get some answers? Why, didn''t Sen. Kerry just answer his question to shut the kid up? Being tazed was the wrong answer. Dumb *****!! Not acceptable.

[jacksteen1]

Asking questions of a political lecturer and being TASERED by rent-a-cops ill-trained on the deadly weapon they are wielding is decided to be completely allright in the view of officials in FLORIDA, the state that gave us the flawed Presidential Selection of 2000, the home of Jebby Bush Sr. and Jr. and the Winter Home of Poppy and Pop-Eye Babs, Grandma and Grandpa Pack-O-Lies.

TASERS are NOT acceptable as tools for ''law enforcement;'' they are cruel and unusual punishment inflicted upon citizens before they have had a chance to plead their case in a court of law. And TASERS KILL.

BAN TASERS IN EVERY STATE OF THE UNION!

[dowjones20k]

This is a dead story ... no one cares about this little troublemaker who was certainly antagonaizing the situation and deserved getting zapped !!

CHILDREN .. rememeber ...... DON''T follow the officers commands ... and then scream ...

DONT TASE ME BRO

IDIOT !!!

[badmofojim]

I would have told Kerry to tase his nuts and see how it feels.

[name_verify]

John Kerry, radical student activist in his own youth, is now getting students tazerd. The irony is rich.

[feelfree1]

In a country where dissenters are routinely attacked, infiltrated, and repressed, and where illegal spying, secret prisons, torture, and illegal war of aggression are acceptable, why would it be a surprise that the authorities would clear themselves for attacking and electrocuting this man for asking difficult questions of one of the ruling class elite?

[Krazcarl]

Like anyone thought they would say it was unwarrented get real.
