It is extremely immature for someone to go berserk and fight arrest to the point that he has to be tased and sprayed multiple times. It is not a sign of “toughness” but stupidity. And people wonder why some wind up in jail more often than others.
On another subject, campaign donations, there is a question. If one person gives $10,000 to a politician, and 10,000 people give $1 each to his opponent, which one do you think has more support? When multi-billionaire & extreme left-wing liberal George Soros gives millions to defeat a candidate, but that person cannot raise the funds to fight back, who do you think will win, right or wrong? We get to vote twice, once when we go to the polls & again when we donate. One vote is equal to all others & the second isn”t. It”s sad but true that money buys elections & will continue to do so until we find a way to equalize donations.
