well he did go a bit mental
he did resist arrest

he was struggling with the officers
he was fighting back

they didnt do it coz they didnt like the questions
they did it coz he was threatening to get violent
do they have to wait til an officer gets a black eye before they act?

That happened here where I live...
This is America there is supposed to be freedom of speech but when some asshole politician doesn't like what you say they have you removed from the audience...

The cops in this town are asses anyway, I got pulled over for speeding was asked to step out of the vehicle when they asked for my drivers license I reached for my wallet in my back pocket and one of them drew his gun on me, they funny thing was there where 3 carloads of them and he didn't feel safe...

there is freedom is speach and there is creating a disturbance
people didnt come to hear what that guy had to say, they came to hear the politician
arsehole or not, it was his show!

no doubt he'll try to sue now
he's no better than the ambulance chasing lawyers

that doesnt give him the right to start shouting and acting like a child

people often confuse freedom with speech with being an arsehole

you may have the right to speak out, but there is also a time and place

and when the cops ask you to stop something, you stop
if you have a grevience with them, take it up later, through the proper channels

the guy disrupted a public gathering

over here he would be charged with breach of the peace and resisting arrest

he was refusing to follow a direct order froma police officer, he was struggling and becoming increasingly violent and was becoming a potential threat
they had no choice but to incappcitate him

I sneak in my own house.
It's four in the morning
I've had too much to drink
Said i was out with the boys
I creep in my bedroom
I slip into bed,
I know if i wake her,
I'll wake up dead
