Freedom of speech, just watch what you say.

That's BS he totally did nothing wrong and all those dumb asses in the background should of been arrested, they sounded like they were creating Civil Unrest to me.

This is infuriating. Anybody know what happened with the charges?

Un Fucking Real...... This country is so messed up. I can't wait for the day that liberals actually are pinned down by the same bullshit they breed.

But of course, that would never happen with their government...

Gasoline in storage is not a problem.

Fire contained is not a problem.

Leaving gasoline stored next to a fire is irresponsible.

Sometimes, for the sake of public safety, it is necessary to keep two opposing sides of protesters separated. As a uniformed police presence, when you have directed citizens to separate, because you are charged with maintaining order, and one or more citizens resist or refuse that direction, force may be used to carry out your charge of maintaining public order.

We can discuss this rationally and peacefully on this board. On the public square, during a heated demonstration, is not the time, or the place to go head to head with the police.

That is unless you want to be cuffed and placed in the back of a wagon.

Freedom is not anarchy. Free speech is not absolute freedom to speak anything, anywhere, at any time.

Be safe.

I like this guy. Cracks me up how when they have nothing to refute what he is saying the one lady just chants liar liar over and over, sounds like a kindergartner on a playground.

While I understand what you're saying, cstone, about maintaining public order, the lone protester wasn't the problem.

FROM THE VIDEO ONLY I didn't see any probable cause for an arrest whatsoever. He wasn't doing anything differently than anyone else, with the exception he was speaking more rationally and was more peaceful - ie: he wasn't doing any name-calling to specific individuals. The closest he came was saying "union thugs", a generic term.

My guess is the Sgt who arrested him is part of the union - and, yes, I'd label him a union thug if so - and is sympathetic to the union cause and wanted the guy outta there. I'd also call him a disgrace to the profession for his behavior. I suspect if the guy wants to press it he'll have a good chance at a successful lawsuit against the arresting officer(s) and the city.

If you're a union member, you're part of the problem. I hope Walker wins and I sincerely hope for the dissolution of all unions. What a bunch of scumbags in that video.
