One more "fuck the police" from page 8 and onward is going to have an all expense paid weekend to E-Disneyland. It adds nothing to the discussion and as such please refrain from making such posts in this topic and the boards in general.

Geting up , eating some toast and drinking some coffee and I wake up to check my youtube account cuz i'm subscribed to a bunch of different channels ... Anyways :



Now there is this video about people getting arrested for dancing at Thomas Jefferson's memorial , however they are not presented with the law which prohibits them from commiting such acts , also I think it goes against some amendament .


I'm not from America , I don't really know , I'd like to know what our fellow americans have to say about this

Shouldn't an officer always have to say what the possible charges would be when issuing warnings? This sounds really strange.

Here's the invite video which provides some background info. There's gonna be another one next Saturday if anyone wants to show your support. Sadly, I'm too far away from DC

They were demonstrating without a permit, the arrest was legal as far as I know.

Anyone who does not dance is a rapist (Yes that's the song title and main chorus)

This whole thing sounds way too silly though. I don't even know what to think lol. All I got in my head was that song ^

what people forget is that there is no such typing as freedom. You only have freedom whilst the state lets you have freedom.

What you have are sadists in blue

Well that's pretty retarded, I could get a inhouse museum or something but an open air memorial seems pretty stupid.

Then again it's widely known that most cops (not all) are people with small penises and huge complexes.

I'd really like to know how you get handcuffs on someone who's resisting doing as little damage as you can, they either both get on him and force him or one guy could've just broken something to subdue him, which is preferable? Also I don't know what the law is to dancing in a public place/memorial/whatever (though I suspect that getting a group of people to come out and do that does qualify as a demonstration legally) but once a cop gives you a warning that you'll be arrested for doing something you don't do it five seconds later in his face, that's just stupid.

EDIT: Just saw the invite video, they were doing it because it was found to be illegal under a court ruling, they absolutely had it coming, and I'm fine with them doing it as a protest, but they can't then not expect or be prepared to be arrested.

What I don't get is, why would you even want to dance at the memorial? Would you also hold a rave party at Arlington? There is a place for everything, and whilst it might not be straight up illegal, it can still be disrespectful. The western society is based around freedom under responsibility and well, doing something that can hurt the feelings of so many just because you can doesn't seem very responsible.

That is not to say that I don't think the cops overreacted quite a bit, but then again, it's not like he didn't do anything to annoy them.

The cops wouldn't do anything if no psychopats would put in place laws just to arouse people's behaviour . Let's see what evolved out of this ... This may just be a small snowball , rolling and rolling and rolling until a lot of people start realizing how they're being f***ed every day of their lives with the illusion of freedoms and rights which are , in fact just ideas and fairy tale stories written on a peace of paper , which can in fact be ignored at any time , and if you don't believe this go search 1942 America Japonese people internment camps on wikipedia .... Good law abiding citizens thrown in internment camps just because their fathers were born in the wrong place .

W/e , this may be happening for a long time now , but since we get the internet now , we find about this unmoral actions in a blink of an eye .

he was lying on the floor ... either way i didnt pronounce myself regarding if it was right or not to arrest them ,apparently it was illegal, since it would have created annoyment trough the rest of the crowd i guess.
The issue with the police is that people think policeofficers should act perfectly in every occasion (and they really should) to bad their human beings, and they are susceptible to all the natural feelings, such as anger (when the couple was making fun of them) o adrenalyne, member of the police are no different from ordinary persons, they just decided to work for the police as a living

And they just chose a politically sensitive area where they know it would cause a stir and make a political point. Yeah, that doesn't sound like protesting to me.

Also it's not about dancing , it's not submiting to loosing , well in this case , a ridiculuos freedom .. Probably no1 cares if they can't dance at a memorial , in particular .. It's just , passing out legislation just to f***k with peoples heads ... It just like teasing a snake ... Wtf guys ?

It's just a little point of legislation is being passed without reason .
And if you are interested in what other pieces of legislation are being passed just without sense ... Research about the passing of the "Bill S510"
