39. HUH?

He shouldn't have been tasered. So? The police are going to have to answer for that. It was wrong.

However, why are we suposed to be upset because some guy grabbed a mike, and started hogging it? Not even letting Kerry answer? Heck, if he was familiar with Kerry, he would know that Kerry sometimes thinks before he speaks! His style is not the rapid fire screaming of this young man.

He did NOT have a free speech right to do what he did. No where in the Constitution does it say that a person can disrupt an event. Democracy is not in peril because he was stopped.

If you will notice, the vast majority are against the tasering! So why is this the death of our humanity?

Sorry, but I don't think free speech or democracy has been harmed by this fellow. He's a jerk who stood on a street corner with a sign reading "Harry dies." He's either a jerk or has a mental problem, in which case I hope he gets help.
