Pasco County Sheriff Chris Nocco Threatens Occupy New Port Richey Peaceful Protestors

[Outback4Me]

Perhaps you've forgotten the time in which this news story was aired. Scott Olson had just had his skull broken with a tear gas cannister, someone who put his life in jeopardy for our country. The idiots at that university where peaceful students were sitting on the ground sprayed them with pepper spray like they were watering a garden. Nocco is telling everyone he doesn't care that those actions are extreme, he'll do worse?

Our forefathers FOUGHT for my right to assemble AND speak. If skinheads have the right to spew hate, I have the right to point out the corruption in our government, which BTW was what the 1st Amendment was all about. Preventing government from the corrupt action of refusing the rights of the people, by refusing to allow them to bring this to other people's attention. It's thinking like yours that allows for profit banks to destroy our economy by paying off our government to allow them to do so.

I see no evidence of heavy-handedness from the Sheriff's office. I see that ONPR interfering with the operation of businesses in the community. I understand you feel the need to speak your mind. Thank God we live in a country where we are still able to do so. But your right to speak should not infringe upon the rights of the people who want to shop normally nor the businesspeople who provide that opportunity to them. Just because you don't stake tents, you feel you have the right to do this?
