The kid was grabbing his crotch as he was leaving. And pretty far away, rather than at Coulter's face. And maybe I'd forcibly eject him from the restaurant if he refused to stop or leave, but why have him arrested and charged with a crime? That's rediculous.

Im sorry ramo but i believe i read he was making mastaboutry motions as he was leaving not just grabbing his crotch. To me this kid went to that speech to get arrested to prove a point. he accomplished just that. had he just went there and asked a dumb question and left the auditorium with out acting like a jackass as he says he was he wouldnt have been arested.

In the context of the Coulter speech, the kid was making the comment that Coulter's speech was just masturbation, not anything of substance. All it does is make Neddites feel happy.

No, he didn't. He mentioned that his behavor was different from the other liberals, and that they were aghast at what he did. He never called himself an anarchist. I have to wonder why you insist on smearing anarchists with the behavior of others.

He shouldn't have gotten arrested. That he was arrested was far more idiotic an action than what the kid did.

Whipping your penis out is a bit different from making 'motions', isn't it?

Im sorry i see it as being the same whether your holding you penis openly then doing it through your clothes. makes no difference to me the jesture is still obscene in public. By no means am I a prude I have been a victim of idiot men doing this all the time I just simply walk away, however i have had the unfortunate incident where some dumb ass came up to me while i was with a bf and made a dumb comment and jesture like this it instilled in a fight with my bf and the other guy in which case 30 minutes later i was racing to the ER with my bf being stabbed in the chest.

Put an end to popups!

Oh, and btw, this wasn't "fighting words" because there was no rioting or a situation where a riot was imminent. You can't just arrest someone for saying something foolish in a diner, there has to be an incitement of immediate of breach of the peace or the utterance itself must inflict injury (like calling someone a slur to their face).

Now if he was inciting a riot, that's different. But he wasn't, so it doesn't fall under fighting words.

He wasn't 'holding his penis', Princess. He made a 'jerk off' motion with his hand, something every guy (and plenty of women for that matter) has done, at least, once in his life. Nothing wrong with that. Whipping it out is indecent exposure and something entirely different.

Have you been paying attention? No one struck out at the kid. He just walked out without getting into any brawl of any kind.

HE DIDN'T GRAB HIMSELF!! Are you being purposely dense?

He made a jerk-off 'gesture' at around crotch level. I don't know about you, but when I make such gestures, I don't grab myself or even touch myself.

Oh no im not being dense by the way, and i hardly appreciate be called names simply cause you dont freaking agree with me. First of all the guy did grab himself and it was stated many times in this thread. I also have word from somebody in the room he was going back to his seat not just trying to leave. Third i never said anyone struck out at him but you cannot disclude the possabilty that it could have happened. last if you want to resort to name calling your going to have to do it with some one else

I will add that i already said the kid should have just been thrown out and not arrested, and the lady is a moron that spouts crap. However when you stand up and act the fool you must pay what consequences that result from ur actions

Read his blog... he NEVER grabbed himself. He made a masturbatory gesture close to his crotch. I'll quote it for you:

quote:
So rather than dignify anyone else, I “made masturbatory gestures” as I exited. Again, bingo! I danced a jig and set my hand a-jerkin’ at crotch-level


And the Student Events Center Prez:

quote:
"The person had been disruptive the entire event," said Matt Hardigree, former Student Events Center president. "He took the opportunity to say something lewd and offensive and then made masturbatory gestures as he exited."


Where exactly does it say he grabbed his crotch?

I called you names, because maybe it'll wake you up and you won't recite false facts.

And just because someone MAY have struck out at him, possibly, doesn't make something fighting words. Hell, if someone struck out at him it wouldn't be fighting words, because he didn't say it to the person that struck out at him.

They can throw him out, but they can't freaking arrest him!

Even if those 'consequences' are outside the law? If someone acts like a fool and later a bunch of frat guys beat him to a pulp, do you think that he should have paid those 'consequences'?

I have already said i have a friend that was in the audience and he saw him grab his crotch. I hardly see that as making things up. As for the frat guy if he acts ike a jerk to a bunch of people especially frat guys he will get is ass whipped, whether i think he should or not is irrevelant. Is it going to happen probably yes. If i was there id try to ensure that a fight wouldnt break out. and get the dumb ass, brave enough to act a fool in front of a bunch guys out of there.

Oh yes, you had a 'friend' there that saw him grab his crotch. Pardon me if I don't consider that very reliable.

You also said:

Are you admitting you were lying on that point? Where are the many times in this thread confirmation that he was grabbing his crotch?

No, it's ABSOLUTELY relevent. You said you MUST pay the consequences. That means you think he should have gotten roughed up by the police, taken downtown. After all, he was acting like a fool and he MUST pay the consequences, right?

I say if the consequences do not match the action, then he should not have to pay them. This kid shouldn't have been assaulted by the cops, and the kid should not be beaten to a pulp by frat boys.

I stated many times is what i meant that the kid was seen grabbing his crotch by someone i know that was in the audience. if i worded incorrectly then pardon me. I have already said over and over the kid shouldnt have been arrested thrown out yes. i said back in the beginning the police jumped the gun a bit. however if your actions disrupt the public then that is cause for a bit of action. As for ur fictious frat guy if you walk into their place and act obscene and rude then sure i think you get what is coming to ya if ur dumb enough to do that then sure. But hey thats just me, better anology was to just ask me if some dumb jerk is robbing my house and im alone and i shoot him does he deserve to get shot by your words hell no lets just let him rob me and then be on his marry way right

The way I see it she was giving a speech at a public university. People have the right to do or say pretty much anything they want. If you can't take it give your speech somewhere else.

Kid, if a bunch of right-wing thugs tried to disrupt an Al Franken speech by similar tatics, would the campus authorities be so tolerant? I sincerely doubt it. I think they would be promptly expelled.

Actually, Coulter ought to arrange for a bunch of right-wing students to attend her speechs. If a group of anarchists begin to disrupt the speech, these muscle boys could go after them. Perhaps they could throw pies or other food at the anarchists, as that seems to be legal.
