Tasered Student off the Hoook

Filed Under Andrew Meyer | Leave a Comment

Andrew Meyer, the University of Florida student arrested and tasered after asking too many questions of Senator John Kerry, has had felony charges dropped in return for his acting contrite about the incident.  The university police officers who tasered him have also escaped penalty and have returned to work.

Most of the attention on this story has focused on the use of tasers on a student by university police.  This attention is misdirected.  The more vital issue at stake is whether event organizers can a) censor questions asked during ’open mic’ q&a sessions and b) whether police officers can use force or the threat of arrest to stop a person from asking questions once they are invited to do so.

The independent report on the incident commissioned by the university found the university’s police officers justified in their actions including their use of a taser during the arrest.  Andrew has even accepted their justification for use of this weapon.  What no ones has yet commented on in a serious way is whether the forced termination of his question asking was lawful.

A Killer’s Video Manifesto

18 Apr

Filed Under Virginia Tech Shooting | Leave a Comment



Sometime after he killed two people in a Virginia university dormitory but before he slaughtered 30 more in a classroom building, Cho Seung-Hui mailed NBC News an overnight package that included 29 photographs, videos, rambling prose.

Does the Manifesto speak to paranoid schizophrenia or a sane, but deeply evil person. Such inferences will certainly play a role in legal cases that seek to assign liability for the tragedy to university administration who it can be argued under reacted to the many warning signs of Cho’s potential to erupt and to a county magistrate and hospital system (Carilion St. Albans Behavioral Health Center) that failed to monitor a patient who at one point was ruled mentally unfit and “presented an imminent danger to himself as a result of mental illness.”

The television commentators content the manifesto indicates a mental disorder that could have been controled with medication.  Yet, the physician who examined him under a commitment order in December, 2005 concluded “His insight and judgment are normal.”
