University of Florida Student Tasered At Political Rally

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the slow-to-revise-taser-policy dept.

An anonymous reader writes "During a political rally at the University of Florida, an annoying student was tasered while attempting to ask Senator Kerry (D-MA) some questions regarding the 2004 election. Police are looking into whether excessive force was used to prevent the student from going over his alloted question period." There are also several YouTube videos available of the incident.

    Perhaps they should bring in a similar policy for Oscars acceptance speeches.

    That's a pretty fucking long post you made there, attention whore. Too bad I can't taser you for it.
