After this I'm clearing the floor unless I'm quoted or replied to. LOL
Thomas Jefferson has these things to say, and these are quotes mind you.
"The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbor to say there are twenty gods, or no God. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg."
"The spirit of resistance to government is so valuable on certain occasions, that I wish it to be always kept alive. It will often be exercised when wrong but better so than not to be exercised at all. I like a little rebellion now and then. It is like a storm in the atmosphere."
"Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law,' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual."
"Single acts of tyranny may be ascribed to the accidental opinion of the day; but a series of oppressions, begun at a distinguished period, and pursued unalterably through every change of ministers (adminstrators) too plainly proves a deliberate, systematic plan of reducing us to slavery."

If people want to watch this video and come away from it thinking, "oh my God, I can't believe they were arrested for dancing, that it is stupid" I can totally understand that. I think it's silly, but the cops are just enforcing the way they are told to.
However, I find it really discouraging that people watch this video and come away from it thinking that it's a case of police brutality. Don't be so credulous. How many times on here do people rip the mainstream media for presenting a distorted view of events? Well, guess what? Adam Kokesh and his band of goonies are doing the exact same thing in this video.

How many times must it be repeated. They did not have a protesting permit. Dancing is illegal at the memorial.
The truth of how it all went down have been posted.
But some of you just keep "creating your own movie".

Annee? Is Dancing, protesting?
Do you think dancing is illegal (your opinion), at that memorial? If yes, why ?
Some of us keep posting indeed, because HELLO dancing... Bodyslam...
You could say simple, its the law.
Did you had part in this law in the making process? And if you were in gov would you vote for such a law to be installed?
Personally, I think this law can not exist. The people are the law, and the government should fear us.
