even so, going from 'hey buddy, times up, we're going to cut the mic here.' to "ON THE GROUND DIRTBAG!!' is a bit of a stretch.
personally, if i were this kid, his parents, or a student at that school, i'd be talking lawsuit, and backing it up with the kind of lawyers that make school administrators piss themselves in bed at night, just so that i got my point across. "hey, you don't want us asking akward questions at open forums? fine. i don't want campus security, or the police kicking in my ribs for sneezing out of turn."
but then again i'm just kind of funny that way.
