The reality is, he was asking Kerry questions and grandstanding a bit. If you watch the other videos, Kerry actually says "That's O.K., let me answer his questions" as they start pulling him away from the mic. The only thing this kid did wrong was to go over his alloted time on the mic, and to be a little loud. Neither is reason for the cops to use force. 6 cops can't just pick the kid up and carry him? You need a taser? These cops went overboard, and deserve to lose their jobs. What's next? They gonna use tasers on loud drunks on disturbing the peace calls? They going to taser outspoken teens "I know my rights!" on traffic stops? If you know me, you're well aware that I support a cops right to use force. However, using a weapon capable of shutting down a person's heart when you've already got a 6:1 advantage over a kid is excessive, even in my view. |

| _______________________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 10:30am - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] Again, though, I must make the same damned point I've made so many other times on this board: If a cop tells you to do something, fucking DO IT. Doesn't matter if they're wrong, doesn't matter if you "know your rights", none of it matters. Once a cop decides to arrest you the decision is made. A cop will never say "oh, okay, I changed my mind... you are free to go" This kid would NOT have gotten tazered if he'd shut the fuck up and let them cuff him. It also would make it a lot easier to show how poorly these cops acted by arresting him in the first place, since they now are able to go into court and say the kid was belligerent and resisted arrest. Otherwise, these douchebags would probably already be out of a job. |

I'm not goin out like a bitch. And its more leverage in the court room when I sue their white asses. |

I could've tossed that kid without anybody getting hurt (let alone tased) all by my lonesome; there's no way five cops should've had any trouble. |

A single cop might be justified if restraining a resisting kid, but 4-5 cops? It's not as hard as you make it out to be, especially since they are trained. Again, it's not fucking hard. Kneel on him, roll him, each cop secures an arm and leg. As for you're whining about breaking his arms, waaah. A front cuff and leg shackle would avoid that, and would be a much more intelligent second choice than a 15000 volt taser that could potentially kill someone with a heart problem. You may not know shit about restraint techniques, and that's understandable. But I WOULD expect that cops, prison guards, and Security officers should be trained and know what they're doing. |

However, he should have been removed, not arrested. Meanwhile, with regards to restraint, as I already said if he were flailing too badly to get his arms behind his back, it's pretty damned easy to just cuff him in the front and shackle his legs, without risk of breaking anything. I worked in an adult daycare center where all staff were required to know how to restrain one of our 'guests', and I recall no broken bones nor tasers in any of these incidents. |

| ______________________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 4:34pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] I guess so. I read that, and it seems it's only required before interrogation.

I don't care if anyone here doesn't like cops, but think of it this way. You have a kid in a public forum with a set of rules for people asking questions to John Kerry. The guy gets up and started ranting abotu a bunch of different shit. If you look at a number of different videos and accounts of the whole thing, he was pretty much in there badgering Kerry, not even really letting him answer and bringing up multiple subjects and going over the normal time people were given. When the cops tried to escort him out, he started screaming, making a scene and then resisting. You have to figure the other aspect is on part of the cops. His kid was ranting in a hostile fashion toward Sen. Kerry and would not stop. If this kid then starts to get violent in the fashion that he did, you also have to figure the cops look at it not just as preventing disruptions and then resisting police but also SECURITY FOR A UNITED STATES SENATOR AND FORMER PRESIDENTAL CANIDATE. You might scoff it off, but seriously, they don't know what this guy is gonna do after he flew off the handle like that. Maybe they went overboard with the tazer, but it could have been worse if they tried to only use unarmed physical force to restrain and cuff him. I could imagine the press if he broke a bone orgot visable bruses or cuts from this. Also, if the report in the article above is true, this kid is a total bullshit artist who was in there trying to make a show of himself and play up for the cameras. He may not have expected the tazer, but he sure as hell expected the cops to react once he started pushing them and screaming. This whole thing is bullshit. It has nothing to to do with free speech and everything to do with a disruptive prick who got exactly what he was looking for. Attention and an incident |

And as for O'Reilly, I wouldn't know because I haven't heard his opinion on this, so if you thought I was just repeating his own thoughts, that was not the case. |

The Due Process Clause under the 14th amendment clearly states that all detainees must be Mirandized under due process of the law. |

| _______________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 11:40pm - the_reverend ""] wow.. the 4th amendment mentions none of that... Amendment 14 - Citizenship Rights. Ratified 7/9/1868. Note History 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. 2. Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election for the choice of electors for President and Vice-President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State. 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability. 4. The validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for services in suppressing insurrection or rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States nor any State shall assume or pay any debt or obligation incurred in aid of insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, obligations and claims shall be held illegal and void. 5. The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article. it doesn't mention miranda rights so.. yeah, nice try. play again if you want. |

| _______________________________________________ [Sep 19,2007 11:56pm - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] http://www.infoplease.com/ce6/history/A0833372.html Actually it looks like the miranda rights are considered a part of due process, as evident by their namesakes case. Note: "in 2000 the Rehnquist court reaffirmed the decision as a constitutional rule that may not be overturned by an act of Congress" Thus, miranda rights is part of due process, a fourteenth amendment right. |
| _______________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 12:02am - the_reverend ""] if it were, they would write it in there. it's just culture, not law. Get another justice on there and that ruling could easily be over turned. so try again, what I said still stands. Constitutional Law != Cultural expectations. that's the whole point of the Constitution, something that is constant and about the quick flowing tides of society. If it weren't, the constitution would be so full of whiteout and holes. thankfully, in 20 or 100 years, the constitution will pretty much be the same as it was before and is now. Due to the prevalence of American television programs and motion pictures in which the police characters frequently read suspects their rights, it has become an expected element of arrest procedure. In the 2000 Dickerson decision, Chief Justice William Rehnquist wrote that Miranda warnings had "become embedded in routine police practice to the point where the warnings have become part of our national culture." Dickerson v. United States 530 U.S. 428 (2000). However, police are only required to warn an individual whom they intend to subject to custodial interrogation at the police station, in a police vehicle or when detained. Arrests can occur without questioning and without the Miranda warning — although if the police do change their mind and decide to interrogate the suspect, the warning must then be given. Furthermore, if public safety (see New York v. Quarles) warrants such action, the police may ask questions prior to a reading of the Miranda warning, and the evidence thus obtained can sometimes still be used against the defendant. |

| _______________________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 12:08am - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] Yes. It's part of due process required to interrogate a detainee. So if they aren't going to question you, they don't technically need to read you your rights. However.... "'miranda rights' are a suggestion to cops and not law which sits under the 5th amendment." As I posted, it is "constitutional rule that may not be overturned by an act of Congress", not a "suggestion". If you read what I linked, another justice DID try to overturn it. They couldn't. |
| _______________________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 12:10am - ArrowHead likes Pie ""] From your own link: "Justice Scalia disagreed with the majority's decision not to overrule Miranda. He disputed the notion that Miranda was a constitutional rule, pointing to several cases in which the Court had declined to exclude evidence despite the absence of warnings. Scalia described the majority's decision as an unprincipled compromise between justices who believed Miranda was a constitutional requirement and those who disagreed. He noted that the majority did not state outright that the Miranda warning is a constitutional requirement, but merely that it is "constitutionally based." Scalia further criticized the majority for implying that Congress has no power to override judicially-imposed safeguards of constitutional rights (Marbury v. Madison having settled that Congress may not override judicial interpretations of the Constitution)." |

They had him pinned ... and THEN they tased him, wtf? Its like kicking someone when they're already knocked out. |

| ______________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 8:00am - hungtableed ""] The kid probably wanted to get arrested or at least get dragged out of there for grandstanding. Look at all the attention the story got and think of how many people ended up getting to hear what he had to say to Kerry. Nice stunt. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 8:30am - the_reverend ""] the last three posts, drewblood, mattkings, and htb are the smartest posts yet. ArrowHead, reading what you typed looks like what I've been saying is right so thanks! |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 8:52am - hungtableed ""] Tuesday morning (before I even watched the video myself) I had heard the audio and people on the radio talking about it so much that I didn't even want to see it. I got almost as sick of this story as I am with hearing about O.J. |
| _________________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 11:31am - DestroyYouAlot ""] The whole incident was total bullshit on the part of the cops, but this kid doesn't hold a candle to Marvin Heemeyer - a true folk hero. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marvin_Heemeyer |
| __________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 2:46pm - grizloch ""] how many times did the cops say he was gonna get tasered? how many times did he say "dont taser me bro" nobody can argue that the kid wasnt warned, and he kept fighting |
| _____________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 6:28pm - HailTheLeaf ""] The kid was a bit antagonistic in the way that he asked the questions, he was definately looking for some attention and those questions certainly deserved it...I don't understand why they didn't just let him finish asking the 3 questions, it would've been alot easier and less retarded than cutting his mic and having pigs grab him as he's leaving anyways. I want to know if Kerry really read Greg Palast's book. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 6:49pm - the_reverend ""] why are the cops there from the minutes he takes the mic? |
| __________________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 8:14pm - fuck logging in ""] the_reverend said:why are the cops there from the minutes he takes the mic? that's what I was wondering. My thought was he was causing trouble earlier and the cops already had a eye on him and when that's why they flipped when he started ranting. And if that's the case the whole situation makes more sense |
| ___________________________________ [Sep 20,2007 11:40pm - Dankill ""] He was being loud and disruptive beforehand and was demanding of more time to ask more questions until they finally let him up there. The video clip was taken after he was allowed back up for an extended amount of time. |

| ______________________________________ [Sep 21,2007 9:03am - hungtableed ""] I love how John Kerry kept on talking over the whole incident like it wasn't even happening, he even made a few wise ass remarks. There in front of him was a student exercising exactly what John Kerry built his legacy on: Protesting. What a pompous fag. |
| ______________________________________ [Sep 21,2007 9:05am - SkinSandwich ""] From what I understand, this faggot runs a website with videos being obnoxious. He wanted this shit, so fuck him. He got what he wanted, the attention. I also hear that as he was lead out into the hallway and the cameras were gone he was being cool with the cops. Then another set of cameras came in and he started being a retard again. Regardless, why is this news? Everybody in this transparent society sick of Brittany now? Fuck off. |
