| this is NOT Rodney King.
having been both a UCLA student and a cop (military), I can see how both sides are completely wrong.
the student should have been gone, but he was hiding behind his 'right' to not be ethinically singled out. he could have left without their hands on him, if he weren't screaming about it.
and the cops went way, way overboard with the tazing. they should have been gang-rushed for dishing it out that many times.
in the end, I'm torn about what I would have done as a bystander. my first instinct would have been to incite a revolt against the pseudo-cops (these guys aren't good enough for LAPD, keep that in mind), after they zapped him the third time. Flag this | Edit this post |

| | it only makes that kind of person look bad to people who are already aware enough to see the holes in his arguments. the people that back people like Thompson and usually zealots, and zealots are not often open to reason or new ideas. ergo they lap up what their pundit is feeding them. see: politics, religion.
