The g2 provided an article which I found dreadful, appalling and totally against to fundamental human rights.
A regular American student of 21-year-old at the University of Florida, interrupted the speech of former presidential candidate, John Kerry, with few questions. Maybe it seemed he was starting to get anger or perhaps he only wanted a few questions after a two hours speech, but even before Andrew finished his point of view, he was stopped by University police officers.
As they realised the student wouldn't finish his riot, as they called it, they "dragged him from the auditorium, wrestled him to the ground, and used a Taser to deliver high-voltage electric shocks, despite Meyer's screamed plea".
The most shocking issue here is not the fact that the student not only was tased, but also jailed, charged of resistance to an officer and disturbing the PEACE.
Imagine that instead using this non-lethal weapon, it was a gun? Would Andrew have the same destiny has Jean Charles de Menezes* had?
The officers said to Andrew that he was inciting a riot (¿?), but it was only a student trying to irritate a candidate, and attempting to create choices in others students minds.
So from now on, expressing yourself means danger! And I thought we already had conquer the freedom of speech... guess not! ...
