Yeah whatever. Can’t wait till this happens at the next tea party even and cops are shooting tear gas at people.
BTW - the cops love this - they get to kill the taxpayers with OT, phoney disability claims, pension enhancements, play with their toys, etc.
sorry - you may cheer this on, I don’t , because guess what - its going to be used on the Tea party next.
Tea party? Sh!t, people exercising their 2A rights get murdered every year by cops in the USA. But because it's the 2A, the cops are the bad guys @ FR. And all the police reports are lies that are in direct conflict with eye-witness accounts.
However, when it's misguided youth, stinky hippies, et al having their 1A rights violated, the cops are suddenly the good guys. Because, you know, the crowd didn't disperse when ordered @ 5am. So, when is it ok to peaceably assemble? Oh, it wasn't peaceable, because all the police reports are the truth that are in direct conflict with eye-witness accounts.
I must be tough to hold two opposing view points at the same time. That is, if they are sincere and not some sock puppets.
If this happened at the next tea party event...it wouldn't.
The cops here served notices for three straight days on the protestors, telling them to quit squatting in a public park. It was only after they refused to move that they were moved.
Had those same notices been served at a tea party event, they'd be a non-issue because tea parties don't squat permanently on public property. They'd be gone at the end of the day anyway, likely leaving the place cleaner than when they'd arrived.
How? In what way? Has there ever been a case of a Tea Party gathering doing what the OWSies have been doing? Have TPers ever refused to disperse when asked?....if that's ever happened.
