Va. Dem. to supporters: Break the law, use police to harass Tea Party members
http://www.examiner.com ^ | april 27, 2014 | joe newby

Mike Dickinson, the Virginia Democrat who wants the House seat currently held by Rep. Eric Cantor, R-Va., is not on the ballot in his district, but continues to issue unhinged tweets as though he is a viable candidate. On Sunday, he urged his supporters to violate Virginia law and use the police to harass members of the Tea Party.

"Use the Supreme Court ruling to harass tea party members. When you see them call the police," he tweeted.

"You do realize you are advocating people to make false statements to the Police? That's, last I checked, a crime," one person said in response.

It does, in fact, appear that Dickinson is urging his followers to violate Virginia law, which says false reports to law enforcement is a Class 1 misdemeanor. Virginia law clearly states it is illegal to "knowingly give a false report as to the commission of any crime to any law-enforcement official with intent to mislead."

The law also says it is illegal to call police "without just cause and with intent to interfere with the operations of any law-enforcement official, to call or summon any law-enforcement official by telephone or other means, including engagement or activation of an automatic emergency alarm." Clearly, Dickinson is encouraging followers to call police without just cause.

Dickinson cited a Supreme Court ruling that says police can act on an anonymous tip to stop motorists who may be violating the law. But it is not illegal to be a member of the Tea Party -- at least not yet.

This scum seems to be following the example of 0bama and AG Holder when it comes to ignoring the law.

Liberals might think twice about following this moron’s advice. Mud can be slung both ways.

Here in Massachusetts, there are very few pro-freedom, pro-decency, pro-economic sanity bumper stickers. Typically only moonbats festoon their cars with pro-abortion, pro-fascism, pro-lunacy bumper stickers. If conservatives decided to dish them a spoonful of their own medicine it would be like shooting fish in a barrel.

.... Admonishing Abuse of Power and absolute discrimination wrapped up in that stinking little statement of his. ... it's time to start investigating these guys ... Hey ..... What's good for the goose is also good for the Panderer ... I mean ... Gander. They all need to be slammed broadside every time they say these types of things.

..... For Pete's sake ....It worked well for the Democrats to the point that almost the entire GOP is gunshy ... afraid to even speak the slightest bit of truth about the Democrats and preaching this ... "Can't we all just get along" nonsense.

.... Time to start growing a few brass ones ... and start picking up and using a few two by fours and be prepared to use them when needed.

wait til the GOP has the control of the Government and starts to use the IRS to rape and pillage the Left—then the protests will start.
