In this day of erratic behavior and threats of violence, it is understandable that individuals are exercising extra caution. In the video and the reports of the tazered student, John Kerry acted in a professional and patient attitude toward the student, who in my opinion, was trying to be a "smarty". It also appeared as if Kerry was about to address the student's questions.
I feel the interference of the police was extreme in that they used severe force by tazering the student. It's one method to subdue an individual if he/she is trying to incite a disturbance, and another matter to subdue a person because he/she is asking questions that someone may believe should not be responded to. I also noticed, in the report of the tazered student, the police had tazered the student several times, even on his chest! Unnecessary! I believe.

I believe today’s pro wrestling is just a form of phony entertainment that has been
Extended from past sensationalistic events.
When I was a young girl, I can remember such names as “The Junkyard Dog”, “The Spoiler”, and one of my favorites, “Cowboy Billy Watts”. Even then, just as today, there was the idea of “good versus evil” among wrestlers.
I never understood, just as today, how the wrestlers could be slammed into the turn-bucklers of the platforms, then hit with iron chairs, and barely, if at all, become injur
I can also remember my grandparents becoming “physically” involved with the sport. When a less favored opponent appeared to overcoming the more favorite opponent, my grandfather would put up his fists, pumping the air, and act as if he were in the ring himself! Also, my grandmother would call out, “He knows better than hurting that boy!” Now, those were some characters to see!!
I believe the female wrestler is selling sex, not improving women’s disposition. From the skimpy outfits to the stiletto, four-inch heels, is the only angle I can see. Because males are drawn by what they visualize, and if it’s and attractive female, they’re there! Boring (to me)!
