A peaceable invasion of Concord's Federal building triggers a mostly restrained police response. But it's marred when one cop tries to tell me I can't audio record his attempts to speak with me...
A thought: The British writer G.K. Chesterton used to say there were a couple of endearing things about the French monarchy, which made it in some ways superior to western "democracies." He said it was like a mountain.... You couldn't move it, but it would let you sprawl all over it without striking you down. My understanding is that average people were easily able to enter the king's space and observe the royal family up close performing their duties. A main obstacle was that they required you to be armed (swords were available for rent). Of course, corruption and economic regulation made these saving graces fade in significance, and the monarchy fell. This day, Washington's fortified outpost relived, in a small way, that impressive French practice of allowing the people to "sprawl all over it." Perhaps if its headquarters were to dispose of its corruption and regulation, There would be a chance of this "mountain" enduring.
Do a video then with no audio.
And what was the point of this “peaceable invasion”, exactly?
“And what was the point of this “peaceable invasion”, exactly?”
I think the idea is that the Feds should stay in their own country of Washington, DC and not meddle with the rest of the country.
As the officer was in a PUBLIC BUILDING, he had no expectation of privacy.
To keep the fed where it belongs: in DC. NH will secede and become a beacon of freedom while the rest of America is swallowed by Obamunism-socialism.
