Hey I think the kid is right that was excessive but im just saying could of been avoided to some extent.Sorry just got a nice sack and this is my first toke in a day or two so i'm kinda blown :hippy:
I think I agree somewhat, the young mans actions weren't the best moves to make. However the Police were far too over the top, and didn't really have any need to grab him in the first place. Yes, he may have gone over his allotted time, but Kerry and the audience seemed quite entertained by him and happy for him to go on, wouldn't you agree? Kerry even credited the mans question as an important one. I also think the young man was genuinely scared, I think I would be also judging by the size of some of those police.

Most likely due to being scared, and wrongfully arrested in the first place. I think plenty of people would act in the same way. What else would he have to achieve from resisting arrest? Everyone in that hall looked pretty shocked by the event and the way the police handled him. We say that these people should know better, but it's the police that should know better. They are trained to handle these situations, instead they read the situation wrong and hurt someone in the process.

I agree they shouldn't of touched him, but they did and if after asking they didn't allow him to continue his question he then should of gone with them.

No I think he had a right to ask his question until he got blue in the face. I think when politicians come out from hiding we need to hit them with questions of relevance to the governing of our nation. I think he had a hell of a point

I would of been terrified in the same situation but in no way does my fear warrant me to resist arrest. Be as mouthy as you want but not fight force with force.

right or wrong when a cop tells you i'm gonna taser your ass if you don't stop....you stop... and if you don't stop you get nailed....even if the arrest was wrongful the force was not

Dude. This is a university, these are all college students. They have their own way of dealing with things. The police need to learn that. The law is not above its own law. Not happy.
Also, is there a follow up video? I want to hear the question answered and possibly see the after math.

Ha, I was agreeing with you. I was just stating that he had gone over his allotted time so no one could come back at me with that as an argument. I agree wholeheartedly with you, he had every right to ask questions until he was blue in the face. But if this was the case, only a select few would get to ask a question. By no means is it an offence to be dragged away by the police though. It's safe to say we agree here.

Yet again, fair point. I feel that he was quite frightened though and the only explanation for his resist. He obviously knew he had been done wrongly hence his continuous questioning as to why he had been arrested in the first place.
As I said though, I do mostly agree with you and can see where you're coming from. I'm just saying I can sympathise with the way he reacted towards the police when they started grappling. It's not a good idea to resist, but in such a situation I don't think we would be so level headed.
