...and ended up joking with the cops or whatever. If that's the case, then, I might think about this slightly differently. And certainly, resisting arrest is not a wise move in any case.

But since video seemed to show cops tasering someone for asking simple questions of a politician (and it's the kind of thing we have seen in the news more and more) and hearing the cheering folks in the tape when he was being hauled out and seeing all of the posters in these threads saying it's ok to taser someone if they are resisting arrest...

ah, whatever... who the fuck cares if our policmen are out there armed with portable torture devices, at the ready to use them in whatever situation they deem justifiable... i'm tired of believing that we are a civilized society... bleh...
