Sure he could. He won't, because the video evidence proves that he was thrown out for cause & then trespassed, resisted arrest, etc. He'd be an idiot to try to take this to court, because he would lose, and his lawyers know it.
He did have his ...   (ccr5cxcr4)20.3.2010
He did have his time to ask his question. 30 seconds. And then he was thrown out after he exceeded a minute, 13 more questions than allowed, & using vulgarity (which was against the rules). And the level of force was not only correct, but investigated twice. They were found to have acted correctly in every way. You might want to catch up with the facts. This was 3 years ago.

He had every right to have his time to ask his questions! That was excessive force and totally uncalled for. Cops are just taser happy idiots and completely useless!

@redrumrob shut ...   (Reggieworth)1.3.2010
@redrumrob shut up TROLL for all you balligerence on this video, the courts have now agreed with the VERY POPULAR view that you just hate most everyone can see the taser use was unnecessary & you have made it your crusade to show its not you even called it 'fact' but it seems that 'fact' has changed so much for your facts rummy find a new hobby TROLL
never mind ...   (Reggieworth)1.3.2010
never mind redrumrob, hes just the local TROLL cheak this out "The laws in place at that time do not agree with you" notice that since this video the federal court of appeals has upheld that tasering a man who does not pose a threat is 'excessive force' rummy​ here has been crying & whining for near THREE YEARS to justify the taser use & now when the polular opinion has been listened to by the courts, hes scrambling still to justify the taser do not feed the loser TROLL
The fact of the ...   (redrumrob)1.3.2010
The fact of the matter is, Meyer brought it all on himself by his illegal actions & idiotic decisions & is lucky that he wasn't charged with every law he broke in that room & that his lawyer was able to get him a deal for 18 months of probation instead of standing trial considering all of the video evidence & eyewitness testimony against him from that day.
"the use of the ...   (redrumrob)1.3.2010
"the use of the taser was too much" The laws in place at that time do not agree with you. "he was not being violent." When? When he was thrashing around, elbowing, pushing & pulling trying to get away from the Officers who were trying to escort him from the building after ACCENT cut the mic or when he was kicking out, thrashing around & refusing to follow their orders & wouldn't let go of the chair?
the use of the ...   (beboploser)28.2.2010
the use of the taser was too much. he was not being violent. yes, there were forum rules which he disobeyed but other measures could have been prevented to walk an UNARMED college student off campus or away from the building. this police officers put on a uniform and they themselves think theyre above the law (a fact you cant deny), but theyre just puppets to the gov't and they'll soon realize.
"prove Meyer's ...   (Reggieworth)15.2.2010
"prove Meyer's right were violated. The Constitution shows they were not violated" i find it HILARIOUS that xxYOutub3Popo​-imposter-TROLL thinks the ACLU was unaware of 'the constitution'​ when they wrote their statement on this event look how he also tries to misinform people by comparing this to someone trespassing in his home not sure if he actually beleives his own drivel, but its clearly not to 'help keep youtube clean' do not feed the YOutub3Popo-i​mposter-TROLL
"If he hadn't been ...   (Reggieworth)10.2.2010
"If he hadn't been told to leave & refused to do so there would be no need" oh? are you saying that police NEVER act hastily? so,​ TROLL, did you read about the taser rules changing yet? for all your whining, the courts have shown that tasering someone who aint a threat is wrong you owe all those people you berated here for expressing that opinion an apology heh and did you read what ccr5cxcr4 said about you? find a new hobby loser, xxYoutub3Popo​-imposter-TROLL cant help you
Wow ...   (redrumrob)9.2.2010
Wow xxYouTub3Poli​cexx, he gets more pathetic every day. I told him a year & a half ago about the interview Meyer did for MSNBC where he admits that he didn't leave when ordered to do so. The WUFT shows him being physically removed by Police. If he hadn't been told to leave & refused to do so there would be no need or cause to physically remove him but, like the rest of the facts regarding this, he refused to accept it. So pathetic.
"Let's not forget" ...   (Reggieworth)8.2.2010
"Let's not forget" who are you talking to TROLL? "Regg​ie, prove Meyer's right were violated" pro​ve he was trespassing ​"Stop being a troll and back your claims for once" will you be backing all your calims about me then? "stalk​ing and harassing people" where? that actually describes you "because​ they do not hate cops like you do" i accept your white flag of surrender find a new hobby loser
Let's not forget ...   (xxYouTub3Policexx)6.2.2010
Let's not forget that Reggieworth has classified himself as a harasser and stalker. He cannot deny this fact. He can lie and deny it, but it won't change that fact. Reggie, prove Meyer's right were violated. The Constitution shows they were not violated. Stop being a troll and back your claims for once. There is no need for you to keep stalking and harassing people because they do not hate cops like you do.
@ccr5cxcr4 that ...   (Reggieworth)5.2.2010
@ccr5cxcr4 that description fits redrumrob, thebatman, 311Egar & more of your friends is that what you think of them too? i looked over the videos &^ noticed you neglected to post that same comment about them. would you like me to do it for you? i will give you full credit of course anyo​ne can find the 'facts' you list in wiki people here want to discuss the issues & vent about policy they disagree with. why do you feel there is something wrong with that TROLL? is discussion not allowed
Reggieworth. I ...   (ccr5cxcr4)31.1.2010
Reggieworth. I truly pity you. I take months long hiatus from youtube, and return to find you posting exactly the same bullshit on exactly the same videos. You have been doing it for years now. Is this your life? Really? Are you paralyzed or something? Is this all you do with your life? Do you not have a family? Some loved one? Something constructive to do with your life? Obviou​sly not. My God, how pathetic. How do you avoid suicide?
"I see you have ...   (Reggieworth)31.1.2010
"I see you have written another harassing message to one of the people you stalk" loloc​opter!!!! you really are grasping at straws. didnt you notice thekook came here & wrote to me? you really need a new hobby loser "Are you going to post that in the Google forums? " im pretty sure you will. then i will post this same thing there to show what a whiney baby you are "if you are trespassing in my home" lol TROLL, look how you are simply repeating to bait argument. grow up

Harley, as Kookbuster said, if you are trespassing in my home and I toss you out, that's a loss of democracy?

I see you have written another harassing message to one of the people you stalk. Are you going to post that in the Google forums?
never mind ...   (Reggieworth)31.1.2010
never mind thekookbuster, hes just a loser TROLL i EMBARASSED posting comments about killing animals on animal rights videos he claims to be educated but clearly lives with his head in the sand look how he is hilariously comparing police officers intimidating & interrupting a student engaged in discourse with a public official at a public forum to a burgler the guy is a nutjob killing time at his shit job by fighting on youtube do not feed the loser TROLL
