If protesters aren’t playing by the rules they deserve it. If you read the last sentence of the first amendment pic I posted you will see that officials set the rules of protest as long as they do so in the confines of the constitution.  

 

Protestors deserve what, Mitch?  All of the rights you're claiming exist because someone else protested for them.  Sometimes, they protested in ways contemporary power structures deemed inappropriate.  If you're absolutely certain that's completely out of bounds...I guess you're welcome to cede some of those rights.  What would you like to give up?

Washington, Franklin, Jefferson et al. weren't playing by the rules.  Personally, I doubt our founding fathers would've created legislation which implicated them in a crime, but obviously wee disagree.  

How do you think our founding fathers ought to be punished for protesting?

Make all their descendants become British subjects again and move home?

Handcuff them to a telephone pole, then go have coffee and a donut.   By the time they get back to them the subject will be all calmed down and ready to cooperate.  If not, then tell them you'll be back to check on them again after lunch.

Why are they always in a big hurry to get them into jail right away?   People that are completely out of control just need a little time to collect themselves.  No big deal.

In Japan they just wrap people up in big plastic bags and carry them off like a giant sack of taters.

Talk about deflecting....you never answered my question. Where did you get the 1%?

if it’s just a guess, you’re not good at guessing

Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

and yet the media fails to cover blacks ganging up and beating up on whites.  If it isn't peaceful then it is domestic terrorism.  They should be arrested and charged and jailed, but the liberals claim their civil rights are violated.  Very sad.

In many instances, the police aren't making a distinction between protestors and criminals.  The President's attempts to label "antifa" a terrorist organization is, by definition, an attempt at criminalizing protest. 

Oneshot- I'd imagine one of the four officers involved would have, say, handcuffs.   I've never held my knee against the neck of another human being for eight and a half minutes because I'm reasonably certain what the outcome would be.  SURELY there's a way of holding suspects that doesn't wind up killing them.  If not, we need to rethink policing.

He was trying to run.  I’ve been held down this way until another Officer came and said I was the wrong man because there was no car and the one holding me didn’t know.

That was 50 years ago and it was a Prison Break, plus I hit the Cop, so yes I was resisting.

Thing is this Officer has been Tried and Found Guilty before going to Trial. Seen this so many times person in Jail is Guilty until they can prove different. Not to be this way but in the real world that is the way it is.

Well I didn’t have the same Cops. Twice I was told to comply or I would be shot . So I complied because I felt they were not kidding and I didn’t want to be shot.
