Uh, you may want to rethink that. I would hire the ACLJ before the ACLU.
Freedom of speech can slip away so quickly.
Wow! What did this guy do? Assault 4-Cause Fear Of Injury, Disorderly Conduct-Challenge To Fight, and Criminal Trespass 2- Upon Premises.
Is this based on known intent from holding a sign?
As I grow older, I seem to shake my head a lot more at where this country is headed.
Sigh. This stuff has been all over. He was told to take the LaRouche sign down. Evidently there’s a “no advertizing” rule. He went crazy. Should have done his impeachment sign without the pushing of the nut, probably.
Of course, there’s enough nuts who will probably loop this thing at least 26 times on here.
Again I voice my disapproval of police in America. They are simply unionized, power wielding humans. Thugs with law behind them. And the reason I am attacking the cop in this piece is because he could have stopped it and had them all detained. Last I check security do not have the right or authority to physically touch you. They must have LEO’s do the actual arrest.
This may have had more to do with the heat he was carrying.
Guess I had better peel the NOBAMA bumper sticker from my truck.
The state fairgrounds is private property?
Yep.
He wasn’t arrested for carrying an “impeach obama” sign. He was arrested for going apes-— insane. The man was under the mistaken impression that he could carry a twelve foot wide display through the state park. He compares it to wearing a T shirt, but a T shirt doesn’t require a 12 foot wide berth. The officer was very polite, as the man continued to scream his lungs out. The video was conveniently edited to delete the portion where he ended up belly-to-belly with the officer screaming his lungs out.
Watch the video.
Is the state fair held on private or public property?
Would you be a vendor at any function if you could not advertise? To advertise would seem to indicate promotion of a product or an event not a political idea.
Here is one of the comments under the video.... i have to say, I was thinking pretty much the same thing while watching the video:
“fu**ing coward americans. An old man assaulted in public, and most people think its a joke. This country is full of cowards. A bunch of passive, ignorant and selfish people that will ultimately receive their just reward.
I wonder how many were christians? How many went to church to espouse helping others, the poor, and the needy. Bunch of hypocrites. We are surrounded by hypocrites, cowards and selfish people.
Yes I;m angry. Next time that happens people need to congregate, and yell, and display civil disobediance. And cause a greater burden on these so-called civil servants. Look how they treat us? AND VERY FEW GET UPSET
WTF IS WRONG WITH AMERICANS. STICK YOUR FINGER DOWN YOUR THROAT AND VOMIT UP THAT BIG MAC AND DIET COKE. TURN OFF THE AMERICAN IDOL. STOP POLISHING/WORSHIPPING YOUR CAR.
Payback is a bi*ch. I can only hope that karma catches up to you all for your selfishness, ignorance and complete lack of regard for human rights. “
Maybe it’s time we stepped outside our comfort zone, just a little?
Wrong. Arrests were made for holding anti_bush signs. Google the phrase “arrested for holding an impeach Bush sign.”
I hope he has an attorney and socks it to them
I hope he has an attorney and socks it to them
I did.
lol i saw a couple of kill Bush signs during the last administration. nobody did a thing about it.
i watched the first ten seconds of the video...the security guards were calmly talking to him as he was ranting like a raving lunatic...
They were conditioned in the '70s to "not get involved", followed by the intense drubbing of lawsuits for people with the timerity to do so.
People did not become sheep overnight, it has taken generations of conditioning to 'let the authorities handle things'.
