But it's worrying to see a pattern of people saying over media/forums "If a cop tells you to do something, you do it" This is complete and utter bullshit people, if you aren't breaking any laws or would be breaking laws by not obeying police, then you are in no way in need of a good ol' tasing. He was annoying, childish and rude but 5 police offers should be enough to remove him without fucking tasing.

Pfft, blame the proceedures? "They're doing their job" If someone chooses a job where they have to follow such proceedures, bear in mind they had a choice whether or not to do the job.. It's not like "police officer" is a last resort.. If they choose to do it they agree to those proceedures which is why THEY are at fault for even being cops. Cops aren't creatures of divinity. Theyre fucking normal people who agree to sign over themselves to ridiculous establishments that arrest innocent people and CAUSE PAIN to people who are being a mild irritation.

This is fucking ridiculous and people on THIS forum should see why.

Our freedoms are becoming more and more negotiable.

He was being escorted out under the wishes of the forum organizers. What more do you want me to say? So after he resisted being escorted out TWICE and everyone ended up on the ground now was the time for them to let go of him so he could walk out? Its kinda obvious he wasn't interested in leaving in the past two attempts of taking him outside!

Now I'm gonna give you a different scenario; They let him get up to walk out and he decides to run around the audience, pulls out a gun and starts shooting people. Now I'm not saying that scenario is likely but as a cop you have to plan for the unpredictable. If that did happen(or any event like it) their would be a media frenzy talking about how the cops were not doing their jobs and the needs for stricter security/procedure(less freedom). You would probably be arguing in this thread still against the cops!
