Totally random bu watch someone getting arrested and tasered. A student from the University of Florida was tasered and arrested after asking a series of questions from visiting politician, Senator John Kerry. Andrew Meyer, 21, asked the Democrat senator why he did not contest the 2004 presidential election, which he lost to President Bush, and why there had been no moves to impeach Mr Bush. Minutes after Meyer started speaking, he was pushed aside by the police, floored to the ground and tasered as seen on the video of the event. Meyer was charged with resisting an officer and disturbing the peace, according to Alachua County jail records. A University of Florida student is tasered and arrested after causing a disturbance at a town hall forum, which featured Senator John Kerry, at the UF Auditorium on Sept. 17, 2007. No bond had been set. Meyer was scheduled to appear in court Tuesday morning, a jail official said. Orlando said university police would conduct an internal investigation on the incident. "The police department does have a standard procedure for when they use force, including when they use a Taser," Orlando said. "That is what the internal investigation would address - whether the proper procedures were followed, whether the officers acted appropriately."
