| Coachella, a big music festival in the Southern California desert (where admittedly A LOT of drug usage goes on), happened this past weekend.
This guy, who came in a wizard costume decided to bare all. The video is NOT SAFE FOR WORK. Naked Wizard Tased By Reality from Tracy Anderson on Vimeo. |

| That's messed up. The man was obviously incapacitated when they slammed the taser in to his neck! Come on, he wasn't even offending anybody, they were cheering him on! Don't you just love the corrupted sense of justice? | |||

Originally posted by Valhalla No, they tasered him first when he got up and tried to run off. When it was against the neck, it wasn't on, it was just there as a warning in case he did it again...which he did. So yeah, I think that this guy is more of an idiot than anything else. He resisted the police, who were upholding the indecent exposure law. Regardless of what the crowd was saying, he was disobeying the law, and it was their job to cover him up. He resisted, so he got tazered. Admittedly, they were a bit rough on him, but he was being an idiot, so no big deal to me, really. |

| God damn Indio cops. (I live the next city over).
I had heard about this from some friends, but wow! That was completely uncalled for. Everyone was booing at the cops, yet no one was standing up for him. The guy wasn't violent, there was no need for a flippin' taser him. He must have been on drugs, but seriously, he wasn't harming anyone. Yeah, arrest him for indecent exposure.... why fight with him and make a show out of it? ARGH. This is why I don't go to Coachella Fest, it's stupid. |

| To be fair, he's the one who made a big deal out of it. They were even asking him to just calm down the entire time. | |||

| Tasing often seems unnecessary and excessive, but they were repeatedly asking him to put his clothes on to which he taunted them saying he "could do this all day," and then threw a fit and tried to fight them when they proceeded to arrest him.
Coachella tends to be filled with "progressive" minded kids who would cheer on nudity and all that, but the guy was in the wrong here. That's the odd and yet fascinating thing I notice in every tasing video. RARELY does someone step forward and say what police are doing is wrong and try to explain why. What do they do? They grab their cameras and stare slack-jawed. It's typical in L.A. Whenever anyone has some sort of interaction with a cop, you'll see someone drive by or come running up brandishing their camera and then shout things like, "Everyone is watching you!" to the police. I've seen it happen on several occasions. It seems most people are more interested in sharing the next police brutality video. I've witnessed one tasing in my life, and I can honestly say it was deserved. This girl was at a Rocky Horror screening, that my boyfriend and I were also at, in Arizona. During the show, she flipped out and started running up and down the aisles screaming hysterically at people (this was definitely not part of the act) and, with her stiletto heels, kicked a few people in the face because she thought they were insulting her. Whenever people tried to get a hold of her and take her outside, she squirmed out of their hold and continued on her tirade. When Brandon and I were leaving the show later that night, the cops had just arrived and were trying to arrest her, but she kept fighting out of their hold, ranting and raving, also kicking them in their faces and crotches with her spiked heels. Eventually they grabbed their taser guns as a last resort in order to put her down. When they finally got her in the car, she kept screaming, "They're watching you. They're seeing what you're doing. You're all racists!!!" (The girl and the cops, by the way, were all white.) Now how I see this naked wizard guy... it was all in his hands there. Yeah, it definitely sucks that he got tased, but he fought them, tried to get away, and that's all there is to it. The "Don't tase me, Bro" video, though. THAT one still pisses me off. Now that's tasing that was completely unnecessary and excessive. And for what? The guy asked questions of John Kerry that he didn't want to answer. And Kerry didn't even stick up for his first amendment right.  (Last edited by Rogue on 04-25-09 01:53 PM) |

| I know the crazy guy on drugs was in the wrong.
But I know the cops in that town.... and they are idiot assholes on a power trip. I guess that's what made me irritated about the situation... |

Originally posted by Belial And I completely understand your point on that. At the city college, we'd get yelled at by the local police (who replaced the campus police in watching the school) for public displays of affection. No joke, this woman actually threatened to take Brandon and me in for hugging too long. And whenever there was a sexual assault on campus the police told the girls to keep quiet about it and didn't put out any information about the assaults. They have had their reasons the first few times they did it, but it was rather unsettling that they didn't want the whole to know and guard themselves. A couple years later when a couple more alleged rapes occurred they finally put out some fliers with a drawing of the suspect. I guess what I'm getting at is that were some video to pop up with LBPD doing something harsh, I might lean a little biased against the police as well. (Last edited by Rogue on 04-25-09 05:14 PM) |

I probably was. |

| If you're going to be crazy enough to go in your birthday suit at an event, you MIGHT want to prepare for something bad to happen to you. This guy had it coming. | |||

| I still think that the taser was excessive. Three cops on one guy, they should be trained enough to be able to hold him down and cuff him. They're able to do it on COPS, they should be able to do it here. | |||
