Permits for lawful assemblies

gtodave · Dec 12, 2014

Gonna drop this little gem out there, then I'll crawl back in my hole.

There are "Black lives matter" protests today in Annapolis, as defined in this article:

http://touch.capitalgazette.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-82254854/

And in it, there's this little tidbit:

"City officials believe no permit is necessary as the activities anticipated are protected by the First Amendment," said city spokeswoman Rhonda Wardlaw.

I wonder if these same rules will apply to us in January?

Just the double standard in... black and white.

Let me fix the quote:

"City officials believe no permit is necessary as the protestors would never apply for a permit anyway." said city spokeswoman Rhonda Wardlaw.

I have a very close friend that works for DGS Capital Police. He is on duty tonight. I am saying a prayer for his safety tonight.

I can tell you, if it was our folks out 'marching', we'd just be reminded to behave and might see a couple uniforms for traffic purposes.

They know that "our folks" will not cause any trouble.

...and leave the place cleaner than when we got there.

How about people silently lining the sidewalks, wearing all manner of Red-White-Blue... just being free?

OK, with pepper spray just in case, but Silent Sentinels nonetheless.

Why do they continue to shout hands up don't shoot when the evidence proves over and over and over again that never happened?

I have been asking the same thing for weeks. It kind of takes away credibility when you choose to ignore the facts.

Why? Because they still think MB was an innocent bystander who was on his way home from church where he was helping make the community a better place.

Just reply with "Pants up, don't loot."

A group of about 30-ish students were doing this in the middle of UMBC a week or two ago; could hear their obnoxious screaming 3 buildings away while taking an exam.

Called security who got them to shut up...man, that felt good; if you choose to ignore evidence and spout nonsense (in the most uneffective location, no less), that's your right, but when you're disrupting just about every activity elsewhere, you need to go.

Joseph Goebbels:
On the "Big Lie"

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

I heard some dingbat on Hannity the other day who agreed that Brown was indeed charging the officer, but that "the last two shots were not necessary", and therefore all the protests are entirely justified.

I considered making a protest sign:

"No Mother should ever have to worry that her son will be killed every time he leaves the house to rob and assault police"

Because facts and evidence do not matter. We know that from the fact that the officer was already considered guilty from day 1.....

OR, "to rob and beat up an elderly store owner."

The huge Afro dude got his just reward. And if the LEO was using a dinky 9mm of course he'd continue firing...arm them with a .45 or a .357 and the LEOs won't have to plow the dudes quite as often.
