Its a well cropped video that doesn't show exactly how much of a tool that guy was being before the video starts.

He well deserved it.

 

[Messiah Khan]

Does seem a bit harsh, but he did try fighting off the cops and was resisting arrest. Not convinced he needed tasering while on the floor with about four people sat on him.

Before the big debate begins, I'll say my one and only comment on this.

Did the guards maybe act a little too harsh? Probably.
Was the guy a tool who deserved it? Totally. They asked him to leave, he refused and eventually got tasered. There are videos from afterwards when he's in custody and he's yelling that the government is out to get him or something like that.

Well he will think twice before being a prat in the future wont he?

So no freedom of speech then? If the interviewee doesn't want to answer the question, get the goons to chuck them out.

 

[churned]

That was a bit harsh whether he was being a tool or not...

 

[Jono]

He should've shouted "Help Help I'm being repressed!"

Then I'd have had some sympathy.

Come and see the violence inherent in the system!

 

[Raymond Lin]

I find it odd that 4 guys failed to hold him and cuff him and then literally picked him up out of the room.

 

[Freeman]

No, he wasn't tasered for asking a question. The guy was resisting arrest. He would never have been tasered if he hadn't of resisted. What a fool.

He was actually removed for asking a question which is the ridiculous bit, not the bit about the taser.

And what was there reason for arresting him?

Public, open and fair debate in 2007. Lovely times.

 

[Freeman]

And what was there reason for arresting him?

Not sure, they obviously didn't like his question. So wanted to remove him and he resisted.

The way people are making this out is that the guy asked a question and then got tasered, no, he asked a question, made a huge fuss about it, then resisted arrest and got tasered.

You can't arrest the person just because you don't want to answer the repeated question which you are ignoring.. Wasen't a politician thrown out of question time a while ago, 75 year old dragged out by 6 policemen and arrested (later released)

 

[Raymond Lin]

ignore the link got changed

That's the same as the first one.

 

[Glaucus]

And what was there reason for arresting him?

For not leaving the premisses. The owners can chuck out who ever they want, he has no right to be there. If the so wish they can chuck him out. If he left he wouldn't of been arrested. But he wouldn't leave so they tried arresting him, he then resisted arrest fought them of. He was Warned several times, if he carried on resisting arrest he would be tasered.

Perfectly reasonable, not harsh and nothing to do with freedom of speech.
