It's my understanding that a court ruling after the GOP convention in 2000 restricts Philly police from automatically arresting protesters who block streets

To be honest I'm not real sure about what the deal with the Court is

The Police Chief only mention that when they were arrested during the GOP Convention the protesters were soon released by the courts and the protesters turned around and sued the city, which costed the city a lot of money and that was why he would not be making any arrests

They laid down in the street and blocked traffic for about 45 minutes to an hour

We are a nation at war. Some of the battles are going to occur here, on Amewrican soil. Theseseditions bastards should be rounded up, processed through booking and shipped to an internment camp in the Arizona desert! They are tying up the very 'troops', the police, etc., who are enlisted to protect and defend US! When will the simpering leftists alphabet networks tell it like it really IS? These 'protests' aid and abet an enemy that intends our destruction, tying up our troops at home.
