FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS: TASER vs. CRYBABY

If this Kerry incident has confirmed anything to me it is that university students can be the most self-righteous, tactless, clueless, tunnel-visioned, knee-jerk reactionary people on the planet ( Read more... )

I sound like a republican? Perhaps it's that us/them mentality that leads to stupid clashes like the one in question. I must be a fucking asshole to say something that doesn't follow the ultra-leftist partyline. I'm not interested in ridiculous dichotomies.

I must have really struck a nerve for you to make such personal accusations. I am not apathetic, but I also do not see the point in things like riding bikes in large groups and reenacting riots in the plaza. Those are very silly things to me. I'm so glad that caring about 'anything' excludes all the things I care passionately about, but you do not, or perhaps not to the degree that you do. That is very convenient. A lot of people agree with me on this, so they are also probably republicans or something.

This little diddy on why tasers should be taken away from police officers was taken directly from the ever-relevant SDS facebook group about the incident, with well over 5,000 members, including you:

i propose a ban on the nonprescription use of the morning after pill and i'll be goddamned if i'll vaccinate my daughter against hpv. she'll be a total slut. having access to things encourages use of those things. this country is turning into a moral toilet and i'll have no part in it. NO PART IN IT!

let's start a facebook group about it.

So yeah, I maintain my criticism of the way this fiasco has been handled. This is because I cannot believe the amount of sensationalism and debate just over what happened when the evidence is right in front of everyone. On video. From several angles. Viewing it carefully, one would discover the police did tell him why he was being arrested, and they warned him about the use of a taser, and this was all after peacefully (though briefly) attempting to escort him out. The police here are not heroes, but they weren't acting in a way that warrants them being fired. But people like to argue. And I maintain my criticism because I actually do care about this kind of stuff. I care about the integrity of the issues, and this kind of sensationalism is going to be overlooked as just that, and there goes your cause. And even if it's not overlooked and the SDS gets everything they want, two officers will be fired and the rest will have to resort just to shooting people and beating them up. Huzzah ( ... )
