Rustina 510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Thief is NO law preventing people from dancing in public. And it's a gross violation of civil rights and to the first amendment Quote Link to comment
NOTES... Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 WTF???!!! Thats Stupid as fuck... Cops abusing their power for something they dont like.. Quote Link to comment
Ooph! Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 There's been other things making the news there also, it seems as though political correctness has gone run amok because the park service will not allow any type of free expression at the memorials including someone reciting the constitution etc. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 "If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so." -Thomas Jefferson "All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent." -Thomas Jefferson oh the irony of them being arrested in the Jefferson memorial :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 Okay, hold on just a minute here. What happened BEFORE this video? Sounds like a group got together to have a mass dance at a memorial, which is governed by the U.S. Parks. Demonstrating WITHOUT A PERMIT is illegal. Had these people gotten together and filed for a permit to have a mass dance at that memorial, they would have been fine. These guys went in and probably did their mass dance and officers responded. All the organizers had to do was show the cops a paper saying we filed a petition to dance here and it was approved. This isn't a first amendment issue, this is about morons dicking with the cops, and the cops making an example out of them after they were asked multiple times to leave or stop dancing. I'm all about the first amendment and freedom of expression, but this is purposeful omission of the facts beforehand, ESPECIALLY since they're videotaping it. And it's spelled "illegal", Skibby! :D 2 Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 oh they where deff there for that reason, but it just points out of fuckin ridiculous all of it is it. from laws to the way cops go about things like that. thats exactly why those two quotes are ironic Quote Link to comment
pharouh Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 I like the part where he was talking about the police. He says "It's the bad apples that give the other 5% a bad name". :rofl: Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 And the fact that they where detained with out charge is grounds for civil lawsuit, that pig couldn't even tell them what they are charged with 1 Quote Link to comment

datto510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 It should be illegal to provoke the police. Quote Link to comment
zhiguli510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 It should be illegal to provoke the police. It sure is Quote Link to comment
DAT510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 that "law" is dumber than SF's law of not being able to sit on the sidewalks... 1 Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 It should be illegal to provoke the police. Fuck that. Just like intrapment shouldn't be legal but pigs do it all the time. Just like how pigs harass people who aren't doing anything wrong, or how cops use excessive force all the Dam time. Even here in hippie Portland cops are shooting people, like a year ago when a mentally handicapped man was gunned down by the police unjustly, and that fucking pig got 3 months suspension WITH pay and full benefits. " I don't feel like working this summer, I'll just go shoot a fucking retard an get paid time off at the tax payer's expense" Or the cop in ortland who was caught stalking a woman and harassing her family, that went on for 7 months and the police didn't do shot to protect the civilian and her family tell over 30 complaints where filed, and even then it didn't get resolved tell the news caught onto the situation, turned out he was doing it to more than 1 girl too. It's getting worse people, our civil rights and liberties are slowly being taken from us, pretty soon anything we do will be against the law and if it isn't they will still arrest you and create a bullshit loop hole to keep you under lock and key with out cause Quote Link to comment
john510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 It looks to me like the dancers planned to turn this into a big deal,why ? those cops started off handling the situation well,the dancers just wouldnt let it go and they got what they asked for-trouble. Quote Link to comment
Rustina 510 Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 I'm sure they didn't want to get choked and arrested, it's call I non violent assembly, and still the pigs couldn't provide a real charge to arrest them for "dancing in public is not a law by any means" and what that pig said the the camera man at the end proves he didn't have any regard for the eel law or justice.
