Citizen Assaulted for Filming Governor John Kitzhaber Event (Oregon)
Breitbart TV ^ | September 23, 2010 | James O'Keefe

Posted on 09/24/2010 11:44:49 AM PDT by penelopesire

Approximately 10 minutes into the speech the moderator informs the public not to film. The citizen continues to film, stating it is his First Amendment Right. The camera is smashed into his face. This is clearly seen on the video.

How DARE any Serf challenge the elite RULING CLASS?!!

If you do any such thing, then it can only be due to the fact that you are a Counter-Revolutionay and must be immediately sent to the Gulags with all of your family.

The sanctity of the proletariat is at stake and can not be allowed to be attacked by those who would undo the utopia of this Government.

/sarc rant complete

If theses street thugs aren’t stopped then any one of us or our family could be the next target of this out of control elite Ruling Class.

...would have been a huge story if the video guy were a black Democrat and was assaulted by a white member of the ‘Caucasian Alliance’...

I would love to see a YouTube version of all of these crimes under a what if? category...what if white conservatives beat up a black liberal for selling t-shirts; what if a white conservative brandished a billy-club at a polling place etc.

I think it would be must-see-TV; a pic=1000 words.

If I had a dollar for every time I have heard or read “what if Bush had said that or a Conservative/Tea Party member had done that”...I could have bought myself a new laptop ;^)

Or would you argue that the founders intended for us to have "secret/restricted" court [or congress] hearings?

In so far as [criminal] courts are concerned, the Sixth Amendment calls for a public trial. At the time, that probably meant that anyone who wished to attend was pretty much free to do so. A written summary of the proceedings was generally kept as a public record in the early days, eventually replaced by court stenographer's transcript after stenography was invented in the late nineteenth century. The founders never had to consider photography or filming, as neither would be invented until the nineteenth century. So, eventually, that decision was generally left up to the court and/or the presiding judge.

Likewise, with respect to Congress, the founders had no familiarity with photography or filming, so couldn't have weighed in on the subject. They left it up to the members of each house to make rules as to how they would conduct their business, but specified that in every vote, each member's specific "Yea" or "Nay" was to be recorded for public record.

He has pressed charges and was given permission to film before the event. There was a news crew filming and they decided to make the announcement to stop filming midway through the event.

This is a Black Liberation church which is teaching hatred of Whitey and Gov Kitzhacker stepped in it this time. He should have stopped the intimidation rather than ignore it. He knew the cameramen and likely his handlers wanted them to stop.

Pray for America

Uh...The freedom to assemble doesn't mean "freedom to assemble film footage."

Yes it does.. if it's a public event.

The "church" is clearly not a Christian church.

What - the ushers at your church do not attack attendees at meetings? What's the matter with you? What kind of church do you go to, anyway?

I don’t know what’s worse: the actual assault or people attempting to use the Constitution to justify the assault.

In either case, the march to hell continues.

Who said he couldn't publish what he wanted?

Or perhaps you think freedom of the press means he has the right to gather whatever information he wants, whether anyone wants to provide it or not?

Next you'll be telling us that freedom of the press means that no one has the right to refuse to answer an interviewer's questions. Sheesh.
