Coolest band director in history. I hope they were playing a rendition of RATM.

Fucking weak-ass cops Birmingham has, if the police have to use tasers to stop a band performance.

It would have been more epic if he said before defying the cops' order, "No. Art cannot be stopped! The music must go on!"

"He's making them play music, tase 'em!"

Hey, since these cops are abusing their tasers, remember when excited delirium was the cool victim-blaming buzzword? Let's not forget how cops decided to pay off some medical professionals, sully science, and that coroners are often corrupt fucking morons.
