Laughing At Tasered Florida Uni Kid

Did anyone see the footage of the Florida university student who was tasered about a week or two ago? I am not here to debate as to whether he deserved to be treated like that or not. There are many blogs out there on this issue. However, I did hear from somewhere that John Kerry actually urged the student to carry on speaking and told the others to leave him alone. Anyway, what bothered me most was what I saw happening in the background while the poor guy was getting tasered away. This bloke, probably another uni kid, dressed in a peach/pink shirt (I can’t be certain because the footage was quite grainy), was actually having a good laugh. Ok, it is quite disgusting that these young Americans were sitting obediently as their peer was begging not to be hurt, but it is actually downright disgusting to see one laughing away like he is watching Funniest Home Videos. Ok, I can understand that it is not blokey to be seen crying or getting upset in a situation like that, but if he is not intending to step in to help, he should at least sit still like the rest of the goofballs around him. It is natural for many to ask the whereabouts of Freedom of Speech but I am more inclined to ask what sort of human beings are we churning out in the 21st century?
