*******************************************
Please see the original article page for the full report as well as links to the actual videos.
In the first video, the reporter mentions that there are several other videos that have been made but he is apparently unable to find them and invites readers who know where they are to send them to him.
FReepers who are able to locate the 'missing' cartoons are of course invited to post them here as well :-)

For a while, this country toyed with the idea that political speech should be protected. You know, if you wanted to stand on a soapbox and criticize or make fun of the government, or the employees or representatives of the government, maybe that should be protected in some way.
Then we said, "The heck with it!" and just decided to arrest anyone who got a little "mouthy". Maybe a good beating will teach them to respect their betters and know their place.

We are an Orwellian police state. Period. I don’t wanna hear one peep from dissenters, that somehow we are not.

What the Founding Fathers were trying to protect, with the First Amendment, is PORNOGRAPHY.

For a while, this country toyed with the idea that political speech should be protected.You know, you keep up with this dangerous talk, and pretty soon people will want to vote without being told who; own their own property and businesses; and pretty soon, people will want a say in their own destiny!!!!1!!
We gotta nip this in the bud.

The protitutor needs to be removed from office. With prejudice.

I was going to post a serious reply, until I saw who posted that.
The irony was so intended.

The SCOUS has already ruled the satire is protected speech.
They better lawyer up because the PD is going to have their head handed to them.

The prosecutor needs to be arrested and prosecuted for abusing his authority.

How about that! Cops having sex on the jobs? Not only do they harass women constantly using their badge, but they also will block others’ fun any chance they get - notwithstanding the predation on the wives of others and domestic violence bias as a result.
Sometimes the truth hurts because it is so real, and then some we do not even fathom.

I have to wonder if the creator of this cartoon decided to put on play instead at the local Renton theater using the same basic content would the Renton cops come in and tase and beat up all the actors, stage hands, and play writer for putting on such a show? How about shooting their dogs? You can’t let a live dog go to waste!
