The man should know his rights were violated and tell the cop, sorry the constitution alows me to do this.

The poster is below the belt, personally insulting, and says absolutely nothing.

And grounds for ARREST, by an AGENT OF THE STATE?

I don’t get the outrage. The only ones who should be insulted by that poster are whites since Obama is being depicted in whiteface. We all know how it would go over with blacks if a white person did an Al Jolson impression today.

But you got this with a picture," Cheeks said, explaining why the protester was being singled out from the others. "That's the difference. This has got a picture on it. That don't have a picture on it.

So the guy cant read...the picture offended him but the message on the sign didnt.

Did you watch the video?

BTW the "officer" is a school dostrict employee who clearly objected to the image not the presence of the 'demonstrator". Way above his paygrade to determine Frist Amendemnt issues.

Someone out here explained in detail on how to do it by using condensed milk (pet milk). Saturate the back with a sponge, flip to front and re-apply milk to front. They said it works so well you need a sandblaster to get them off.

Cops are not agents of the state. They are hired by 'chief of police', who is hired by the 'city council', who are elected by the people. All local, and as it should be IMO.

From 1984 by George Orwell

His pen had slid voluptuously over the smoother paper, printing in large neat capitals _

DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER

DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER

DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER

DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER

DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER

Over and over again, filling half a page.

He could not help feeling a twinge of panic. It was absurd, since the writing of those particular words was not more dangerous than the initial act of opening the diary; but for a moment he was tempted to tear out the spoiled pages and abandon the enterprise altogether.

But he did not do so, however, because he knew that it was useless. Whether he wrote DOWN WITH BIG BROTHER, or whether he refrained from writing it, made no difference. […] The Thought Police would get him just the same.

The State = government at any level.
The State = an entity with the power to use force, legally, to enforce its will.

So, what grounds for arrest would YOU support in this case?

Arrest = surrender your liberty to the State or face lethal force.

Not for you to decide what is what isn’t allowable. Even if you do object to it, it is not against the law.

I believe, hypothetically, that image would do nicely...

Oh, please. How many nutty libs over the years have displayed protest placards far more over the top than this one with no consequences (as should be the case)? The cop was out of line, and his statement about this not being America anymore is very telling. The Left in this country is slowly but surely showing their true colors. They aren't Americans at all, it would seem.

Check his posting history.

He thought that if only we’d stop encircling Russia with NATO, they’d magically turn into nice people and good neighbors...

No, being on slow dial up, I normally don't download videos.

I have, in most cases, more faith in the 'cop' on the beat, than the '9th circuit court'. The cop, I can do something about, a political court is more limited.
