Lawyer in handcuffs-Police raid RNC journalist's house

[69coquito]

Pre emptive? WTF? is this really what this country has come to, No warrant? those Pigs better not be in the house.

[nicolelecompte1969]

What ever happened to the right to be treated innocent until being proven guilty? Why was she handcuffed? This is not good.

[ruggedterrains]

Definitley a staged hoax, like cia-mossad scripted julian assange wikileaks show..

[robinhoodintn1]

this is going on all around the country police have said we dont need a warrant we are the police and we do what we want to do.now that being said what can people do [call a cop] freedom is know more in this country we live in a police state and police make up the laws they want to put in place.we have to learn to live with it if we dont then firing squads will be taking place in this country germany said it couldn't happen but it did to them.police have taken over this country its over for us.

The only reason its not martial law is it was still preformed by local law enforcement. But it's as close you can get on a local level without declaring martial law. The fact is they entered personal property held everyone with advanced weapons, treated them with arrest if they leave and all this without a proper warrant or no warrant. SWAT teams will not make a decision like this without a higher office involved, either higher in the police department or local government.

[mark86442]

It's a controled raid. They knew they where form the meadia and might have video cameras recording. If this was known other than that, then it would have been a raid.

[mark86442]

Most police department will not take the liability and would force the local or state government to make that decision.

[MrAmericanAce]

Trust me, this isnt a raid. Ive been raided. This is nothing.

[objectivematt]

Political parties are a diversion. The private central bankers who print your fiat currency are in charge and have been for hundreds of years.

Evolve or die. This is the only option.

[mark86442]

Anti-riot act of 1968 give the police the right to do this, beleive it or not. The police did nothing wrong however the judge has to have the poeple's rights in mind when signing a warrant. If they can prove she didn't with the information she has then the city is responsable.

[mark86442]

When a city feels threaten they impose martial law evenif they don't say it. A system of rules that take effect if the military takes control of the normal administration of justice. Although this wont play out in most courts.

[MrAmericanAce]

@mark86442 this is nothing like martial law. Trust me. They werent really Raided so to speak. Some were just questioned and arrested. When they raid you. They have ten swat members charge through your windows and doors with M16's and blinding lights shining in your face, they secure you and proceed to destroy your house from the inside. Then they arrest you or just take your stuff and let you go. This is not a raid.

[mark86442]

The only reason its not martial law is it was still preformed by local law enforcement. But it's as close you can get on a local level without declaring martial law. The fact is they entered personal property held everyone with advanced weapons, treated them with arrest if they leave and all this without a proper warrant or no warrant.

[cory640]

I love how some of you take police acts as a chance to bash obama and the goverment(and its employees)

A little over a year ago, these officers were working for a goverment headed by Bush, a republican

what changed about police since then? Can any of you enlighten me?

[TRUTHTHIRSTY1]

Police are blind to whats really happening. They just do what they are told. Stalin Mao Hitler Castro all killed 30 to 40% of their force right away. Imprisioned another 30 to 40% Left the rest with a job for a short while then fired.Reason being, they are the ones who are trained in the use of guns and may be a thret to the ones in power.P.S. They are some of the first to take vaccines if told to do so.

[cory640]

lets all have a session of compare and contrasting modern US Police forces to Soviet, Nazi, and PFoC secret police

I think the contrast side would have a few more thanthe latter

boy you idiots sure do take your dumbass theories (that don't make one bit of sense) and run with them

Get a life, grow up, get real. You're doing no good to anyone acting like this.

[TRUTHTHIRSTY1]

What are you a cop?

[cory640]

No I'm not, I'm just not a total dumbass, and I'm not living a self-imposed fantsy life derived from over-reading the history books. (iow, I understand that this country ISN'T Nazi Germany, Soviet Russia, or Communist China, unlike you)

So what if I was a cop anyway? What I'm saying is real, it makes sense, and its true. You're just spouting out irreleveant bllshit in hopes that you will scare someone ignorant enough to believe you.

[TRUTHTHIRSTY1]

Good now go get the swine flu shot

[endisnighe]

wtf dont agree with me you are going to get arrested and why can someone be detained without cause is this not kidnapping oh they are doing it for our own good why dont these cops see this as illegal and refuse to obey and cops wonder why they get shot viva la revoluciene

[AmericanDiaz]

mexicanboy92840 needs to be deported.

[mexicanboy92840]

Deported where? I'm was born in Orange County, I'm chilling out here in France with all these bitches. I think your ass needs to get deported to Europe, where you belong.

[AmericanDiaz]

Orange County, is a good excuse I guess for your anger, now you had better be handling dem' ho's, cuz if I was in France I'd be big pimpin'!

[Allamericom]

Obamanation of American citizens they are learning this from Obama friends Chavez.

[minowekay]

C'mon you guys, you know when the vicious, overreaching Bush was president there were raids on Democrats allllll the time. The Democrats are just too polite and/or timid to tell anyone when their rights are violated.

Now that Obama The Good is president, nasty Republicans must be investigated and/or detained whenever more than two of them are together. In case you haven't read the report, they're all disgruntled racists and mostly forming militias to bring down the government.

[AmericanDiaz]

lame

[hornball44]

Maybe you should check your facts a little more closely. The govt didn't raid dems houses at all while Bush was prez, like you claim they did. Did you know that your beloved prez wants to take away the right to self defense? That means when someone bad enters your OWN house w/ bad intent you cannot even defend yourself. Hitler gave great speeches to and was also elected into office, remember that when the govt is controling every aspect of American life come this time next year!

[minowekay]

I was being facetious. I think before this president's term ends we'll all be thinking fondly of the days of President Bush.

I own a gun and no matter what the government says, I WILL defend myself.

What Obama and the Dems are doing SEEMS insane but if you will Google "Cloward-Pivens strategy," you will understand it all.

[darkwolf228]

Stop lying. Obama does not want to take anyone's self defense you idiot. You are making things up out of thin air. Show me one instant where he wants to take guns away. ONE.

So hitler was a good speaker so anyone who is a good speaker = hitler? That is about 20 different fallacies. I can see why you like Bush though.

[cory640]

Hahahahaha, republicans: "did you know Obama wants to (xyz)????!"

Show me where in any of his speeches, proposals, bills, etc where he says that he wants to "ban self-defense"

You know you are just a brainwasher. Let me educate you. He wants to ban the civilian carry anything that holds a larger clip than 8 rounds (assault rifle)

No one listen to these assholes, please. They are destroying everything this country has worked to develope, a democracy that has multiple FAIR sides

[cory640]

many people give great speeches, especially my Oral Presentations teacher, he must be a communist nazi (wait, aren't nazi's facist) i don't fucking care, SOCIALIST!!!!

^^^ yourlogic at work

[mexicanboy92840]

They raided searching for racist REPUBLICANS.

Jail them all!!

[hornball44]

You are a very narrow minded individual who should probably not have dropped out of high school. To say that all republicans are racist is right up there with saying something like all mexicans drive low riders, or that all black people carry guns, which isn't true. Open your mind a little and maybe you might learn something about life.

[rachelmaddowmyhero]

fuck the police

[jimmyhd1969]

Most lawyers should be in handcuffs!

[hubertgreen]

boring

[Pv8man]

WHO EVER AUTHORIZED THOSE RAIDS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND PROSECUTED IMMEDIATELY.

They MUST answer to every single one of these raids and show proof of warrant and proof of probable cause for doing something illegal.

[coasterfreak100]

Well a judge signs off on a warrant--not the police--so they must of had something. Don't forget a jury decides whether the state has met their purden of proof... Not the police or news, or protestors.

[dale3858]

We have fallen as a Democracy.

America is finished.

[alabamafilmfestival]

You people need to stfu and go to work and pay your taxes so we can get on with killing foreign babies and such.You've been protesting for decades to spread your message and the military industrial complex is stronger than ever and the protesters are weaker than ever.I don't see anything that even comes close to the protests of the 60's!You people don;t have the balls to do a damned thing but stand in the streets and wave a fucking sign.I'm sure the illuminatis are feeling very threatened now..

[questyfilms]

fuck off moron

[mexicanboy92840]

Fuck you piece of shit.

Your just mad cuz we got a nigger is president and bossing your ass around.

Sorry, but the white man can't rule forever.

Look around!! Foreigners are all over!!

Pretty soon, Mexicans are gonna knock your ass out as the biggest race population.

[AmericanDiaz]

callete la boca pendejo

[Minionuup]

All i see is amateur camera whores who don't know shit "videography" or about uploading a video to youtube.

[tventers]

holy shit...

the day when all protests are banned is drawing near...

[relic989]

some pretty good vids of the RNC

[gboettner]

Wow, watch me film the happenings on my cell phone provided by my Daddy!

These kids are pathetic.

They would look great in Cambodia with chains around their necks working for brother Pol.

[agentpolsky]

You kids truly are boring me. Why don't you invent a new dance step or how about learn some science and build me a flying car!!!

[matthrms]

please oscarbeenit, you'll do nothing but post on youtube and browse facebook, and you know it.

[undeadnow]

this is so set you guys ..............

[F4O4U4R4S]

Boy the New World America seems really cool to live in with the constant raids on regular citizens. The land of the free? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHA

The melting pot is starting to melt, wouldnt you say so?

[samagee1]

That's funny. Are they raiding all the houses on that street? I know my house wasn't raided and I own numerous guns.

[trill5thefif]

they weren't raided for guns.

[imopman]

Always sad to see a democracy dying

[Angryrnmedic]

@imopman I certainly agree except that it's not a democracy but a Republic, or at least it began that way. Benjamin Franklin said it was "A Republic, IF you can keep it" for he knew the danger of government and political hacks becoming able to buy votes with tax dollars, etc. While I may or may not agree with the politics of these folks, that doesn't matter. They have every right to speak their peace, or at least it WAS that way till our Constitution & Bill of Rights went through the shredder.RN

[rak6541]

amazing not one person who posted has any idea what was going on inside that house, yet you all act as if you know. your all pathetic.........

[thearcangel11]

Well, considering they let the people they detained go after their "raids" it's pretty clear that NOTHING WAS GOING ON rak6541!

[Barbaricfellow]

If they are PREVENTIVELY raiding houses of lawyers,as SAID in the video, can there be any acceptable version of events then?

[cagedtigersteve]

Well this is definitely going keep me from standing up for my first amendment rights.

[oscarbeenit]

You're unpatriotic and unamerican. I'ld rather die standing than live cowering down in fear, and I'm not going to let my grandchildren be slaves to tyranny.

[cagedtigersteve]

Sorry, I was being sarcastic.

[oscarbeenit]

Sorry, I couldn't tell, some days things are just too serious for me to laugh.

[avzett]

If you listen to mainstream media, this didnt happen.

Wake up people. Do you want to leave a totalitarian police state to your children and grandchildren. Will you resist or will you simply wait for your loved ones to be "detained"?

[appldknwldge]

What a disgrace! Where is MsNBC , CNN, and Faux News (Fair and Balanced)?

[raybl]

The invasion if the ME is actually a war of aggression against all us Americans as well.

For the purpose of robbery.

THE WAR IS ON US ALL.

[amsoho75gr]

video blogger trumps cop any day. this off the web; a supervisor in the Ramsey County sheriff's SI Unit, testified Wednesday that when one of the co-workers finally told him about pocketing $6,000 of reported drug money, he didn't ask him where it came from because he knew the man — defendant Mark Naylon — was a close friend of Sheriff Bob Fletcher.

[jsfumato]

Flexie Cuff is the new Flag Pin !

[Hasalaiya3]

Thanks for putting this video online! I've heard about things like this happening. I can't believe I'm seeing so many things in my lifetime!! This is very disturbing!!

[politicalfarce]

In the Republican's mind, Liberal=Criminal

[seattleubermom]

I hope for every one arrested before the event, 100 more people show up to protest.

[aekolman]

Excellent. Thank you for putting this up. What a disgrace. So much for the presumpton of innocence.

[klard]

What has our soiety come to? Is this freedom? Preemptive raids?

[Seigest]

So they can arrest anyone for anything as long as it has the phase "conspiring to commit ..." Seems like they they are just itching to use those camps and silence the people.

Thanks for the post, keep the info flowing.

[lordvelos]

Oh I think the RNC will be ALOT uglier than the DNC. RNC = NAZI DICTATORS and they don't do protesters well. So yeah the RNC is going to be ALOT uglier. As you can see by this video they are PRE-ARRESTING and HARRASSING people right now! Proof is in this video!

[mariacide]

God Bless the Press!

Rodney is right, you guys are amazing~ Thank You for the upload!

[KARStarla]

Your kidding??? Harassment of those from "Democracy now"??? They are the kindest folks and the most unsensational of any news media, what on earth could anyone from there have done?

Exposing the cops who brought up false charges and freeing folks of that much corruption must be the reason. This is an outrage if its true. I hope theres more you could inform us of here, I'd be very interested in the outcome

[Pananarchist]

I'm pretty sure that the guy at 2:10 is the one that had his equipment confiscated by the police a day or two ago. This looks like it could be a lot uglier than Denver.

[rodneykingman]

You guys are amazing reports. I really appreciate what you do. Thank you for your service.

One suggestion; go on Ebay and for a couple hundred bucks you can pick up a Steadicam or Glidecam or at least a wrist and or shoulder support even cheaper.

This is REALLY KEY for what you folks are doing. You need to check them out on YouTube at least. Just type in Steadicam and Glidecam on the search bar on YouTube.

Thank you again for your service,
