Does anyone even care anymore? Look at how awful authority treats us in 2006. This is an extraordinary abuse of power. I can't even express outrage, it's just... too much..
Its funny how everybody is a lawyer when they see something bad happen. So he got tazed, Its not like he paralyzed for years.. the effect wears off rather quickly...within seconds. Oh and the supreme court has ruled that refusing to so a peace officer ID is ground to bring a person in. :)
the video is not clear show it doesn't show that force was being abused. He could not follow simple orders of "Stand Up" I'm sure the cops were aware of the other students around, i'm sure they followed procedure. Now if students don't know what that procdeure is, well its not the cops job to tell them. If the students want to find out...the hard way. I'm sure the cops will be happy to do it.
I hate how people diss cops, just because of the "injustice" on youtube. If that footage was on "Coolest Cops Takedown EVER!!" (i made that up) then it will all GREAT! :rolleyes:

that guy sticking up for him at the end, to whome the cop said "stand back or youre gonna get tasered too" to should have stood his ground. people need to confront.
they shouldve rushed as a group and whisked the guy away through the crowd mexican style ;)
rightfully so. Regardless of intentions, if a person gets close to a cop while attempting to do an arrest, the cop should have the right to taze the person. The cop should not have to worry about if this other guy is going to attack him.

listen, forgetting your ID is common on campus. and usually if you tell the pretencious mini-authoritarian pricks to off, they do.
this occasion was an example of a common thing getting blown up to rediculous proportions.
also, im not sure if youre aware (im not) but i imagine itd be very difficult to walk with all that electricity flowing through your body.
They are the police, not rent-a-cop. If you refuse to show ID, they can bring you in.

Have you ever tried to stand up immediately after being tazed? I thought the point of a tazer is to put someone on the ground.

Sure, fine, they are just doing their job after all, no need to actually hold anyone responsible for their actions, they are just arms of the "justice" system, not the minds. Something like that?
But when it comes to threatening otherwise innocent bystanders who want to intervene because what they see is injustice, who do you side with?
WHY can they "bring you in" for not showing your Identification?
Is it that important for every human being in our country to be registered and numbered and hold with them proof of this at all times?
Since when is it ok to meet passive refusal with violence? Since when is it ok to bring violence to a place of learning? Kent State?
Police men and women are people too, I understand that. They have a right to defend themselves when they see fit as individuals. This, however, is very wrong.

Good question. Why don't you ask the supreme court when they said the police had the authority to do that.

when i don't shave for 2 weeks, i look arab and while i try and abuse that with the arab food places around here to getting me free food and arab prostitutes in giving me free sex, i don't really get punched in the face by authoritorian powers just because i refuse to give into small requests like, i dunno, "where's your ID you dirty arab ? you SPLLANING TO BLOW UP THIS CAMPUS? I'LL CUT YOUR HEAD OFF! AHHAHA I AM ABUSING MY PATRIOT ACT LOLOLOL. JUSTICE BURNNNNNN"
i've been questioned by cops like twice in my life and both times i did their basic routine without piss or moan. Dude's got a ing gun and i'll respect that, just as long as he isn't grabbing my or something BLATANTLY out of his powers.
