    The results would be exactly the same. We have learned little about authority and when to oppose it.

    I'll give you an example. Last night I was in a restaurant like Taco Bell or Subway. Across from me was a girl with an ordinary backpack which was all I could see. It was quite common to see that in the University District where I was. I paid no attention until two policemen came in (both over 200 pounds - - she was tall but could not have been more than 130) and began arrest procedures. She started shouting very foul language but otherwise did not resist. They put handcuffs on her wrists which were behind her back. Again she she used profane language only screaming that they were hurting her. It took the one police officers a moment to find his key and loosen the cuffs, which he did, but she was still uncomfortable and cursing.

    She was silent as they took her out. Nobody questioned the incident at all. Do you think Dr. Millgram would recognize this as an example of his theory? I'm sure he would. Trust me, this was not staged. There was a 3rd officer who drove the girl and one of the 2 arresting officers away.
