I'm surprised the cop allowed himself to be identified and recorded. New department policy: before saying anything blatantly unconstitutional, take the camera and beat up the photographer.

That man needs to be fired. He’s dangerous.

It should be noted that the 79% includes a significant portion of the 15% Hispanics (double-counting). So, the actual White/Non-Hispanic total is in the high 60s.

Protester: “This used to be America”
Cop responds on Video: “It ain’t no more”

Martin L. King would be very proud of all the progress being made down here i’m sure .

1st amendment rules apply differently on school grounds WHEN kids are in sessions. Speech or images that could disrupt the educational process can be controlled, but when the school building is used for other public purposes, say a school board meeting, then free speech is free unless it is clearly aimed at disruption.

IMO the bystand was an Obamabot tying to lend support to the cop.

thank you for the 411 on the different rules. i like to learn new things.

What are the chances Officer Cheeks was an Obama supporter ? Oh, I don't know, lets take a look.... 2008 Presidential Election: Vote by race

i thought the protester was being pretty rude. the cop was being polite at least. yes what he said about it not being america anymore was way past any line i know, but the protester was being obnoxious and confrontational.

"Confrontational" is the word that cops use to describe whenever a citizen objects to their heavy handedness. I imagine the scenario played out like this: the guy with the sign showed up to protest, the cop, or whoever is pulling the cop's strings, didn't like the protester's message and so told him to get lost. The protester stuck up for his right to protest, at which point the cop goes into his little spiel. You'll notice that the cop even said that the reason he asked that protester to leave and NOT all the others was because that protester's sign "had a picture". Does that make any sense to you? That's because there is no sense to it.

The cop was the aggressor. He was violating the protester's constitutional rights. Get a clue, and learn how to use capital letters. When you can't reason and you can't write, you have no credibility.

I got a news flash for the rentacop.Yes it is America.Delusional cretin.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

I disagree with your assesment that the protester was rude.And you need to learn to Capitalize the start of your sentences.

[Gator113]

He’s an embarrassment to the Law Enforcement community.

The man is stupid and he should lose his job. Obviously an AA hire...

[Caipirabob]

If it’s not America, then he has no jurisdiction.

[nitzy]

Please don't ever post on this forum again. Turn your computer off and never turn it on again.

If that makes you upset and you react, I will call you rude.

Your are outgunned
Six and a half to one

According to this post on another conservative site, he’s a security officer for the school. The police dept. was called and they said he wasn’t one of their officers.

Bumper stickers, lots of them.

Cheeks, stupid is as stupid does.

[Gator113]

Then he should be arrested for impersonating an LEO. Security guards do not have the arrest powers that he threatened to use.

[Rome2000]

Pretty niggardly of Cheeks to stifle that protesters first amendment rights.
