Now the Chicago police department is following Obama’s example and telling people that their First Amendment rights can be terminated anytime. Check out the incident caught on camera when a couple of news reporters were trying to cover a story outside a Chicago hospital.
Following the threat, the officer arrested the two journalists. Even though they were released a short time later, the incident has not gone unnoticed. According to the National Press Photographers Association, there have been 70 such arrests that they have documented since last September. Many of the arrests have involved the filming of news stories when the police decide they don’t want to allow it to be filmed. They seem to just arbitrarily decide on their own when it is legal and when it isn’t.
How unprofessional can these cops possibly get?
With their arrogant threatening attitudes, these people are one step above a street gang.
I believe those sidewalks were built with money from the same source as those cops’ salaries; the tax payers they’re hassling. I know it may seem strange but we do not exits merely to act upon the whims of cops.
Increasingly the cops are just another street gang, albeit one with an awful sense of style.
So you can get to work? There was no damn traffic...Look at the street...lol
This guy using the f-work multiple times, makes him no better than a typical gangster cockroach.
Where does he get the authority telling these people their 1st Amend rights can be terminated at any time?
Is that the new standard? "It doesn't appear to be a foul, so it's not a foul?"
Chicago: a big liberal city run by the corrupt Democrat party which gave birth to the dictator wannabe in the White House.
And conservatives like us will be blamed for this. :)
Isn’t Obamaland great? :)
The cop was telling him to move to the sidewalk. Don't let that stop you . . . .
Makes my eyes hurt-—50 or 57 stars?

There was no traffic, as your comment indicated.

You seem to like the ideaof taking orders a lot
Fair enough. And you don’t understand the law.
Thank you, good point. Exceptional, even.
Does your job require you to shoot people’s pets for the hell of it? Im just curious.
And I don’t give a damn what the reporters were doing you don’t tell someone you can suspend their 1st amendment rights. Thugs talk shit, not “professional” police officers.
Trailer park, you too funny. I’m surprised you took enough time from unstuffing your mouth with cop sausage to respond.
Sorry, buddy. I don’t see any pets shot here. Did I miss something?
Oh, poor boy . . . tell us about the unjustified traffic ticket you received.
Im sorry I should have been clearer. Are you a cop?
Also I’m not a buddy, hence my FR name ;)

They are union Rats. What else do you expect?
