Why Did John Kerry Not Speak Up and Defend Free Speech?



I was shocked that John Kerry did not ask them to allow this fellow to stay in the room if he was willing to "listen" while Kerry answered his questions.

But for Kerry not to speak up when six police officers held him down and tasered him....now that is reprehensible.

I expect anyone that I vote for to allow free speech and protest police brutality.

I was appalled by this episode. When it became clear that this unarmed man was being tasered while surrounded by numerous police officers, I thought that this obvious use of excessive force would, at least, elicit some comment by Sen. Kerry.
