University of Florida Student Tasered At Political Rally

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.

You are 100% right. The best way to "resist" is to comply without making it easy for them to do their job. Offer no resistance, go limp, and go to the station to get booked.

If you aren't prepared to get arrested, don't get involved in protesting, period. Find something safer to do, like writing angry letters or singing folk songs. If you go up against The Man, you better have your end-game figured out. A lawyer on speed-dial is also a good idea.
