First off, I am not a "lib" and what you are saying is typical of a person who loves the police state, you make the same excuses as supports of Hitler used to. If you like the police state you will get one so don't worry...you get exactly what you want.

What "TV talking points"? I don't watch Fox News or any other television news for that matter.

That's just another one of those stupid non-arguments you libs always throw out to try to make the other guys arguments look shallow.

[Rustyshackleford08]

There was NO legit reason there, and its NOT a liberal or Conservative thing. More TV talking points.

Sure, maybe he was asking "legit" questions, but he also asking them in a very loud and disruptive manner, and wasn't even allowing Kerry to answer (ironic that I'm defending Kerry, considering I don't even like the guy).

They used the tazer on him because he was resisting arrest. That is a legitimate reason IMO. And, no I haven't been desensitized. I just chose to step back and look at the situation coolly, rather than having your typical knee-jerk liberal reaction.

[Rustyshackleford08]

First off, he was asking legit question he probably knew he would be "Approached" and since when is it justified to TAZER HIM. You are blind bye the idiot box propaganda....he should not be FN tazered anyway. Are you so desensitized by what has happened over the past 7 years? Believe me if you were tazered and threatened you will probably say the same thing he did on his site. Its called living in a police state.

[TheSilhouette]

Lol, yeah right. He was freakin' said that on his website, not in any police interrogation, moron.

American's model army is that kills, rapes, tortures and destroys like cowards.
