The vision on some punk walking around whining about how his rights were violated after he tried to fight a cop is quite humorous though. He would get laughed out of the room. Honestly, you guys must be living in a cave, or watching to much Cops on TV, to think that cops just twiddle their fingers when someone tries to fight them. This was no uncommon event...the only thing different about this case is that it was caught on videotape. jon ______________________________________________________________________ Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
