42. This was NOT "the simple act of asking questions"

Edited on Tue Sep-18-07 10:32 AM by cosmik debris

The kid misbehaved. If he had behaved well, the outcome would have been much less upsetting. But the kid misbehaved.

It was not the questions that caused the police to intervene, it was the misbehavior that caused the police to intervene. The kid misbehaved.

Then the kid escalated his misbehavior. This resulted in the police escalating their response. It wasn't the questions that caused the escalation, it was the kid's misbehavior that caused the escalation. The kid misbehaved.

I don't like the outcome at all, but the kid was warned that if he did not behave he would be tasered. He continued to misbehave. He got tasered. The kid misbehaved.

So, let's recap. The kid misbehaved. The kid continued to misbehave after the police tried to intervene. The kid escalated the misbehavior. The kid was warned that he would be tasered and he continued to misbehave.

And you blame the cops. :shrug:
