Oh, you mean the professional attention whore that gave his camera to the chick he butted in front of so he could get some film of himself being an azzhole? Shame they didn't shoot the sucker.

Oh...and he was sponsored by Brunswick.

I seriously hope that was sarcasm??
Yeah the kid was semi-annoying... but he had 14 cops on him & they "couldnt" cuff him?? so they tazzed him? He asked a question. If you watch part II of the video.. the robob*tch tells him hes going to jail for trying to start a riot.
No one should get tazzed for asking a question. And if you listen closely... while the dude is getting manhandled... Kerry actually answers his question.
Its disgusting... republican, democratic... whatever... nothing should EVER be like this.

The disgusting thing about this azzwipe is that, according to witnesses, as long as the camera wasn't on him, he was fine. He did it for the pub...he even apologized to the cops in the car, then he asked if there would be any cameras at the station.
The things folks do for publicity...
Chase, do you still believe in the Easter Bunny too? I can tell you didn't read the news reports on this...
saying that he was quiet when the cameras werent around can be just another cop out by the police officers. how can we be sure he wasnt still screaming in pain from the tasers when the cameras werent around? obviously with the videos showing some wrong doing (in my opinion. which can mean very little i guess) the police officers in question are going to try to cover their ass. These "witnesses" you speak of that supposedly saw him being quiet and apologizing to the officers were no more than words in a police report, WRITTEN BY OFFICER MALLO.
The fact that he was asking a WELL INFORMED and THOUGHT OUT question, that just happen to be controversial to the speaker is far less reason to tackle someone to the ground and hit him with the taser in confusion. Whats next, are we going to have our questions screened for content and read for us to avoid any actual thinking and questioning of authority? heaven forbid that someone other than people in power are right for once.

Ryan don't play stupid on this subject... we both know that we will simply just not be allowed to ask questions. That and i see everything turning into something a long the lines of the movie Stargate.

i mean... cops & journalists never lie right? not in this country.
this guy DID NOT deserve to be tazzed. If you watch the CNN video, it actually shows an officer trying to deploy a tazzer to the guys chest while he was standing up. But it didnt work. Thats when they got him down & pinned by large officers... then they tazzed him on the shoulder. For what?? To shut him up????
He did nothing wrong. Kerry even asked for the officers to let him go. You clearly hear that. Kerry wasnt "offended" by the questions. And like I said above... while the guy is getting manhandled by the law... Kerry answers his question.
Its complete bullsh*t.
No one.. NO ONE... should be treated that way. It was a power trip. And for what??? Cause a kid who was sick of the current state of America had questions to ask??
Personally I'm glad the cameras were there. He was smart to ask for the camera. And if the guy has the opportunity to sue the pants off of the University of Florida & or the Police that were there... I hope he does.
I'm sorry if you dont agree or cant see the angle Council & I are sharing Halwe... but approving of the bizarre behavior that took place in the video by security & the "secret service" (or whoever they were in the suits) is actually quite scary.
And just a heads up.. part two of that video is on youtube & he doesnt remain quiet. He continues to ask why he was tazzed & arrested while hes being led down the stairs & into the lobby.. hes still asking for help... so really your "report" is false. Thats also where the female officer tells him going to jail for trying to start a riot. I mean yeah.. the crowd in those videos looked like they were out for blood didnt they??? They just bum rushed those guards!!! Just go watch it.

im taking a camera to the bowling alley, you taze me and see what happens.
I have no doubt that he knew this was going to cause a rukus, thats only the nature of his question. Did he expect to be tackled by 8 officers and tazed??????? sounds like a plan that I would work out. The cops were wrong in stopping his WELL INFORMED AND RESEARCHED question, and when he questioned why he was being taken down in a panic, HE DIDNT DESERVE TO BE TAZED. there was no threat of physical harm coming from him. He never once threatened anyone with any sort of violence, didnt ask anyone one to jump out of their seat and hit anything or riot.

there were other camera's there because of who was speaking so i doubt u can say that just cause he brought a camera that it was staged cause there are more and more videos of this on the internet then just the one that he had. I don't get how some people are saying this kid got what he deserved for acting out. I guess the right to freedom of speech is now limited when u ask serious questions.
I said it in my first response... the guy IS douchey... but even the douchiest dont deserve a taser for asking a question.
Well if this was a staged event.. heres what he got out it:
1. A taser to the shoulder for asking a question about voting theft & if Kerry was in with Bush in Skull & Bones. 2. A night in jail 3. 2 Police Officers are now on paid leave (the one who tased & the other who ordered it) 4. A student body protest ..over 200 students rallied for this dude 5. A letter from the UF president to the students & faculty saying something along the lines that the event that took place was "regretful" ..& that they are looking to change their security protocols. 6. More cops may find themselves jobless after the investigation by a larger team of investigators made up of noone from the Gainesville police. 7. A potential lawsuit.
Not bad for staging an event

If it wasn't staged than the whole thing is truly bullshlt.
If it was staged than it was a complete waste of my time and my time is so totally valuable that I should reimbursed by in the form of all his Night Hawks...I'm going to throw all of them away but at least you won't have them anymore.
Councizzle, I'll be at the bowling alley next Thursday for league. Please bring the taser so's I can taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase the Brunswick out of/into/all around you.
