23. Yes--he was truly obnoxious. I agree. But, like you, I think the Tasering

was out of line. In Florida, the cops have Tasered children as young as six, as well as any number of other people who clearly should not have been Tasered. They are Taser-happy, and they use Tasers a lot of the time as a way of slapping down someone for being too "uppity"--i.e., trying to assert basic civil rights.
