Famous utterance of University of Floridastudent Andrew Meyer, who was tasered and arrested by the illustrious UF police department after either:
a. Merely asking some legitimate questions to Senator and former Presidential Candidate John Kerry
b. Engineering a scene for publicity
Whether you believe it was "a" or "b" will likely vary with your age, political persuasion, and belief in the necessity of genuine political discourse.
As Meyer fought the officers on the ground, they threatened to taser him. Meyer stated that if allowed up, he would leave. The officer replied that he does not have that option. Meyer yelled,"Don't tase me bro, don't tase me", but was drive stunned shortly after. -one account of the incident
1. An utterance emitted by University of Florida student Andrew Meyer on the evening of September 17, 2007 in efforts to ward off the vicious bite of a police taser after he was detained for getting uppity at a forum with U.S. Senator John Kerry.
2. A phrase used (with ironic reference to the above incident) to express feigned dissatisfaction with another's recent or impending actions or speech.
"The Meyer incident is in no way an issue of freedom of expression."
"Are you kidding? Don't tase me, bro!"
From the iconic video of the studentquestion-asker being TASERed, the phrase has come to be synonomous to "lay off, man." It is a minor exclamation of unreasonableness.
"I'm pissed that you missed that goaltoday."
"Don't tase me, bro."
