Plenty of policemen have been killed wrestling with a "kid". He could have grabbed one of the officers' guns during the struggle.

I agree a taser wasn't justified. A swift kick in the nuts would have sufficed.


I got it, Steve, but thanks again for reminding me.

Another member pointed out something interesting. Why is it that they have five officers wrestling an obnoxious kid for asking questions that might embarrass Kerry yet when Laura Ingraham was assaulted on a campus no police took action against her attacker. Maybe the police inherently identify people who are strong who can fend for themselves and who is weak.
