Universities can either be great places of learning or indoctrination.
Tucker is a douche as always, and as much as I’d like to expand on that point it’s not the reason I’m posting this clip.
“Americans are asking, why do they hate us? They hate what we see right here in this chamber — a democratically elected government. Their leaders are self-appointed. They hate our freedoms — our freedom of religion, our freedom of speech, our freedom to vote and assemble and disagree with each other.”
-President George W. Bush, Sept. 2001

This is fucking disgusting. Yes, he was annoying. Yes, he was resisting. But by the time those cops issued their “shut up or we’ll taser you” warning, he was already subdued. I counted more than 6 police literally sitting on the kid, are you seriously telling me that at that point they couldn’t get the cuffs on him? They actually got him into a submissive, controlled position, and they STILL tasered him?
Aw, so he asked tough questions in a really annoying way. Apparently, in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, this is grounds for arrest. Am I missing something here?

Would we as a society be shocked if he was shot? Would we just ignore it like we ignore this mans rights being trampled on as he was physically abused for speaking his mind?
There are alot of concerning things about this whole abandonment of “civil rights and liberties “suffered at the hands of a counrty now seemingly bound to “Police State” tactics, that we originally were so against. I am ashamed to live in a country where there is NO free speech, or any right to even think of stepping out-of-line. I believe we are regressing into a state of such authority and contempt for our own freedom that many of us just sit and watch like the audiance at Kerry’s little get-together, while a innocent man was tasered and arrested.
Out of fear of the government, we have come to this? A young man steps-up to ask the questions that matter to him and should matter to us if we were not so blind and was physically abused into sumbission.
America, this dosen’t bother you? Why? Hardly anyone cares about the path of this country enough to be out-raged and respond to this travesty of justice? Free-speech, America…do you remember what that was before the bombs dropped? Unity, Liberty…compassion for one anothers thoughts, you know DEMOCRACY? This unjust force of power against disent is startling and yet we sit in our chairs and ignore it?
That is the”NEW WAY” of all America; ignore it or become another angery citizen, lost in the sea of political strife and chainned to the voicless, listless, prison of our culture. Another Angery American cut down by disent…rising to be defeated by his own ignorant community.
To be “Aware” or “Awake” in this country…in these times, is to be beaten down and struggling to exist in a Nation of drones.
We dont seem to care anymore do we? The few that do scream to be heard and are usually cut-down…ignored(no surprize there!) and as time passes we all find-out that they we right but we didn’t want to listen then and dont care now.
There are 76 MILLION disabled Chronic Pain Patients in this country who are being un-treated for their horrible pain. The numbers keep rising and very quickly by the addition of the troops sent home with burns and bullet wounds. Chronic pain is a life-long toture that are government has tryed VERY hard to ignore! It has killed countless people. Pain patients; citizens or soldiers are being neglected and abused even though we have medicine that could ease their pain and greatly reduce their suffering in various ways, but the DEA has a “War On Drugs” to fight…so it means aresting innocent doctors and patients and destroying millions of lives than thats what they will do…an has done. Legal medications that treat a ailment are the NEW target of DEA, because they can’t fight a War On Drugs by going after dealers, ect. No the easy way is to go after the innocent while America watches and dosen’t do a thing.
We are ALL responsible for how this country turns-out. Our childern and Grand-children have us to thank for this mess we leave them. At the moment it seems that we have “let-go” and now we have no control. We will be in the voting booths soon to make yet another mistake for president, I could only wish that America starts to wake-up now…you’ve all been sleeping for too long and we have just about lost everything.
There are no excuses for the hate and pain and suffering we create these days…and no one should be CUT-down for speaking their mind. What is this country doing? Time to wake-up America…WAKE-UP!
