Dude, the kid was fighting the police...what did he expect...it's not like he got beaten or anything...There's a difference between exercising your right to free speech and being a nuisance...
(As a US military veteran speaking) - I guarantee you this stupid kid never served in the military or knows what it takes to guarantee his right to free speech...what he was doing was not exercising free speech but trying to get himself out of trouble while calling "free speech" but fighting the cops...
nope...I don't believe him one bit...no sympathy here...

He opposed John Kerry. That was enough.

I do agree that fighting the police is very different from free speech (he was fighting them) but to me it looked like he was already cuffed, what is the point of tasering him when he is already cuffed?

And invading other counties guarantees our right to free speech how?

Good point. Right to free speech is given to us under the constitution.

Free speech does not give you the right to fight the cops. The kid got what he deserved because this was nothing more than one of his planned publicity stunts. Had he not resisted the cops would have took him outside and let him go.

Don't be naive, the war in Iraq is not the only thing our military is doing right now...It just gets the most attention...I served in the military during the war in Iraq, participated in many missions vital to national security and never once set foot in the Middle East...
While it's true that I don't necessarily agree with how the administration is handling the war that's going on over there, I do believe that we needed to invade...
Free speech is, of course, one of the core foundations of our contry and I would not presume to infringe on anyones decision to exercise that right...but I believe that with that right should come the responsibility to exercise it responsibly...

Why is that? Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11.

Of course. The student tazered probably deserved it.

Responsibility seems to be a fading concept these days.
