    Was he obnoxious, yes. Did he deserve to be forcibly removed, absolutely.

    To be tasered?! Absolutely not. ing pigs.
    I think it's questionable if he should have been forcibly removed at the time. To me it looked like he was too excited, but the questions were reasonable and Kerry could have attempted to answer them. If the kid wouldn't have let Kerry respond, and then forcible removable would have made more sense.

    He didn't even let Kerry answer the first question.

    ChumpDumper dreams of a forum taser which can be used on posters who get out of line.

    No. Not for that. I just won't pretend that he was giving Kerry a chance to answer. Tase me for that if you like.

    Don't taser a snot-nosed kid who already has been removed from the situation and subdued. You'll lose your job.

    Who's pretending?

    Dude, this isn't about Kerry, it's about abuse of power and potentially killing someone when frankly, it wasn't necessary.

    No one is going to lose his job over this. Chances are it followed procedure.

    Gratuitous displays of force in order to demonstrate police authority are fully in concert with a the ideals presented by a forum with a U.S. Senator.

    Whoever is saying Keey wouldn't answer his questions. It wasn't you so it wasn't directed at you.

    I completely agree it wasn't necessary for this guy to resist arrest. I already said I don't care who was speaking.

    We cannot question the actions of cops because they are always clean and pure and 9/11, apple pie, and babies.

    Sure, they can be questioned -- and this is being reviewed and two officers are suspended with pay while this is being sorted out.

    The man shouldn't have actively resisted the way he did.

    Politicians aren't used to having to speak with the little people outside of a controlled and contrived forum.

    True. And since there is no such thing as proportionality in the use of force, they simply should have shot him in the leg. That's a non-lethal wound, and definitely would have subdued him.

    According to the independent student newspaper, he's charged with disturbing the peace and felony resisting arrest.

    The police accosted him and starting walking him out for no apparent reason. I don't see any evidence that he threatened the life of the senator or any else. A clear overreaction by the boys and girl in black.

    Disturbing a US Senator's peace? Why we can't have that.

    But we can have resisting arrest, right? Perfectly acceptable.

    Yeah we can't have anyone resist an arrest when they've committed no crime.

    He was charged with one, and failure to comply with a police order usually is considered one too.

    I think his questions were perfectly valid and I would like to have heard Kerry respond. Too bad this guy was such an idiot that he didn't want to hear any answers.
