Oh and btw the stupid "boobtube" video doesn't really show ALL of what happened,it only shows what happened AFTER said student followed the "forum rules".He was asking questions LONG before the boobtube vid.

Oops.
I saw the whole video, and no matter what you claim happened, he resisted arrest. Can't anyone just let the police extract them from a situation without making a scene? This kid wanted to make a spectacle of himself and he did. In the course of doing that, he got himself roughed up a little by some police who probably were trained to act accordingly when threatened. Sorry kid, but you brought this on yourself. Next time you bring a video camera and try to make a funny video for your website, remember what happened here. It's too bad that people can't respect the rights that were given to them a long time ago, when the world was a different place. The freedoms given to us all in the Constitution should be respected and not used as a jumping pad for idiotic behavior. Don't hide behind your Constitutional rights when you yourself are breaking the law.

I'm sure that there are a lot of anti-law enforcement and anti government people that think this kid was wronged. Whatever your political views are, he broke the law. He is not some martyr trying to change the world. He's a trouble maker looking to get some attention and knows that videos on the internet are the way to do it.
