It basically runs down like this in my view.
Student: Moronic attention seeker hoping to god he'd become internet-famous by heckling John Kerry.
Rent-a-cops: Caught up in trying to justify their authority by tasing someone who didn't warrant it just because he had the balls to not do exactly what they said. How dare he not subjugate himself immediately to their authority.
Us: Engaging in a lot of hyperbole and conjecture with seemingly very little fact-checking.
We're all doomed.
