  • This video is RACIST! DERP!

  • POLICE STATE PERIOD

  • Wow this videos sum fukn straight up nazi shit goin on they are commiting a crime against the constitution by telling them they can't talk all them fuks in acorn and that "cop" should be aressted! They are criminals!

  • Fck that, file a complaint on the dumbass LT, for infringing on Constitutional rights

  • They actually told people they cant talk on a public sidewalk? WTF and that douchenozzle saying people with out insurance should be in jail??!! What a fucking obamanation!

  • VOTE RON PAUL! I'm watching this from Canada and am scared for you guys

  • We can vote all we want. But it's rigged... So...

  • Obama 2012! Suck a fat one teabaggers!

  • @MClown69 you either love being oppressed by being denied to move ahead by Obama or youre a fortune 500 asshole that makes money by ruining legit businesses and you just love watching others be oppressed. Only other option is youre a crack head that dont have to worry about work anyway and you have illegal immigrant fam sneaking over and your still pissed about arizona doing what was in their rights no mater what Obamanation had to say.

  • @MClown69

    You obviously want to see America destroyed. That's Obozo's goal. He's a MARXIST. He wants to destroy Capitalism.

    If you can't see that, then you just aren't paying attention.

    I guess you'd like him if you're on the dole. But the dole will run out when business owners leave to go to countries where the business climate is better.

    SOCIALIST HEALTH CARE SUCKS BIG TIME. You wouldn't know that if you've never had it. I have. I go to a Mayo Clinic when I need good care.

  • @Brdstfff Keep on watching that Fixed Noise. it is proven to make you dumber than someone who watches no news at all.

  • America just De-Volved 75 or so years!

  • Does anyone misunderstand this video? Just think inner city school education and inner city busing and you'll be able to figure it out for yourself. WASSSSUUUPPPPP Fooows.

  • Why Americans don't know what socialism is ??????

  • AMERICANS! Take it from a Canadian!

    Do not - DO NOT - allow your government to bring in public health care. It's Socialism. It brings everyone down to the lowest common level. You wait in line until you die because the government will only pay for a certain number of tests or procedures per year. If you're one of the ones that puts the rationing over the limit, tough for you. Go away and die is the response you'll get.

    DO NOT ALLOW PUBLIC HEALTH CARE IN THE U.S.A.!

  • @Brdstfff Allot of college kids that went to be docs are thinking of new lines of work now because they realized its barely going to pay for their degrees because of this shit. Wont be long they're gonna have to hire any dick weed on the street and some idiot like me will be doing open heart surgeries. Lovely thought huh??

  • @whiskeydence02

    Here in Socialist health care la-la land (Canada) we have a different problem. The powers that be (provincial not federal) want more women to be doctors because women will work for less money. My son wants to be a doctor. He has a 4.0 GPA but can't get into Med School. He may head south but ONLY if Obozocare doesn't come in.

    Do Americans know what Socialism does? It keeps everyone at the lowest level. It's ILLEGAL for those with more money to have a better life than others.

  • @Brdstfff I hear ya, Thats what we want to put an end to here. but here they want to feed the rich that hord thier money so they can support them and drag the rest of us down so we can't do anything at all. Even middle class is getting shit on royally. If you're not brought into a rich fam they just dont want you to be able to stand up. It's their way of control, theres more of us lower classers and they dont want up to know it.

  • @whiskeydence02 Im far from rich but I'm all for capitalizim if its earned and its not being used as a way to be treated special. Us in the factories do all the work, We are the real reason in numbers the government has all the money they steal from us as it is. And they make us the ones that dont want to pay because of their abuse. Most the rich arent even paying taxes, they get write offs just for buying yachts and supercars in bulk, they dont even

  • @whiskeydence02 have to pay for half their meals and they go to way more expensive restaurants then we can ever even see the front door of. I got mad respect for those that start with nothing and earn their way. but like the ones I pointed out earlier, they get off to damn easy and the Gov says "go ahaid, fuck over any legit company you please" and we cant stop it. Shit fuckes up peoples livelyhoods all the time. I worked for a company for 9 years and one day we get word

  • @whiskeydence02 Some groupe of assholes bought it out, started getting shit material right off the bat, You look around there are TONS out of no where illegal Mexicans that like a handful had a mexican name and they where the only ones that could actually speak english, Long story short I told them fuck off on new years 07-08 and now the company dont even exist anymore. They had it 3 years, It was actually originally opened in the late 50's

  • Well there goes freedom of speach!

  • That pig needs to be taught a lesson of what the 1st amendment is about.

  • Welfare Queens and Thugs gone wild.

  • the officer in this video should be sued, for violating Americans 1st Amendment Rights of Freedom of Speech. /O

  • acorn is old news put to rest years ago. But think of what repuggg. are trying wreck our way of life.

  • @autowill98 You are a moron and don't deserve the liberties that my ggggg father gave you as a signer of the Declaration of Independence. This is not about party but clearly the right of assembly and freedom of speech with a bit of racism here.

  • We don't need to use our brain anymore. We have a quarter black man in office. He's gon' feed us n take care of us too!!!! Read the constitution please. Creating jobs is the only way to even out ANY kind of racism in america. That, I guarantee.

  • NIGGERS..........

  • bunch a niggers looking for free shit, go figure!

  • You can see it's a white / black thing. The cop is violation all kinds of rights. I think it's a racial hate crime and he shoudl be brought up on Civil Rights violations.

    

  • What state and town did this take place in?

  • Ha,ha,ha; Is this the [freedom] more than a million innocent Iraqi,s were murdered for? We were told that the trigger happy,bloodthirsty u.s troops were in Iraq "fighting for freedom" Is this that freedom? Innocent babies born with severe deformities because of chemicle weapons,Innocent Men tortured & humiliated in Abu Ghraib,Women raped & Men,Women & Children murdered by psychotic deranged u.s troops for what? Oil, thats what,fuck all to do with freedom.

  • I don't know or care how acorn are but I do know that obama needs to go and that he never should have been president i mean dus any one know were he was born

  • Stop Obamas dictatorship coming in full force 2nd term. NO ONE WANTS TO LIVE IN AN OPPRESSIVE regime! We want improvement NOT TOTALITARIANISM!VOTE THIS SCUMBAG OUT 2012 or ALL OF US ARE DOOMED!

  • @ToeIn2194, WE ARE ALL DOOMED HERE. DEMOCRACY Has a shelf life and its about 200 years, we are on the home stretch now, Something needs to happen before its too late.

  • Comment removed

  • screw acorn

  • The police are out of control as usual.

  • STARTS WITH HEALTH CARE..... BUT WHERE DOES IT STOP? It stops with YOU voting OUT Obama and his Socialist regime and its "planned failure" for America! VOTE OBAMA AND LIBERALS OUT in 2012

  • acorn NUTS ! and Obama is one of them

  • afermitave action at work

  • Chicago Bully Politics. Don't criticize, or your a racist, or terrorist. The government will control your speech, media, healthcare, schools, Tax you out of your homes, send your jobs overseas, give Taxpayers money to corporations & Unions who support the socialist regime. They will pass laws that are Unconstitutional, & create class warfare to get re-elected.

  • say goodbye to freedom of speech america

  • "If a police officer tell you something, you have to do it." True, but the officer HAS to be honest and lawful to order someone.

  • @JonaVicis That officer can only tell you what to do within the confines of the Federal and state constitutions, and telling people that they can't talk because he is black and obviously supports Obama is against the law and shows that even with his badge he is nothing but a black bigot!!!!

  • This better be shown nation-wide leading up to the 2012 elections!! THIS is what power the Obamanation is wielding. Wake-up America. Speak your mind, and the "round-up & arrests" could be coming next.

  • The founders of this country are turning in their grave...

  • @truth2350 We're reaping what they sowed.

    Nice try.

  • @TerrifiedPotatoe What the hell are you talking about? We got tired of bending over the desk for scumbags like you so we revolted. It takes a ignorant fool to make such a bold statement from the comfort of your chair when people die so you can sit on your ass and tell them " yeah war is wrong" so we shouldnt fight any wars? civil war, ww2 all pointless? If your side of the argument is " We're reaping what they sowed" then i wont answer any of your ignorant messages.

  • @truth2350 I'm pretty sure I didn't say any of that.

  • of course they don't want us to have conversation. Conversation with other Americans would be progress and would help people find the real solution. Instead, Obama wants "Class Warfare" with no negotiations or communications.

  • thats sad if your breaking the law you dont have to lose anyone

  • sucks that some "law" are above it

  • Injustice 

  • i really hate this president ...i really doooo hate this president

  • Fatgirlmickey thank you for saying the TRUTH

  • politics is corrupt on both sides....... and you see why blacks & whites STILL dont get along...

  • damn, obama does't want me to see allot of videos

  • acorn is a racist pro-obama organisation but i guess its its ok to hate whitey under obamas watch just not blacky sounds like hypocrisy

  • @proteus3333 they hate whites because whites are racist. So they hate all whites just on principle. Think about it. You are PRE-Judged based on your skin color. And they claim they are not prejudiced. Apparently being black makes it ok to not only be racist, and bigoted but no longer important to understand the English language.

  • Murder; Go See; "ARREST of GEORGE W BUSH, soon"

  • what a bunch of crap these acorn creeps are and who the hell do the police think they are stopping a conversation on the streets.

  • Apparently this pig's grown fat on ACORNs...

  • These people need to take this to a lawyer and sue

  • Commie ass Nazi Fascist Cop!

  • How else can the dead vote?Republicans hate dead people!

  • Read the Georgia Guide Stones you will see for yourself. This type of strong armed police action is only used by the democratic party because they know they are going against the constitution in all the laws that they try to pass but don't worry because the republicans are doing the same thing. We are no longer guided by the constitution of the United States, We are now under the constitution of the United Nations. Welcome to the New World Order.

  • The most important thing to remember is the blue and the red are on the same team. They both want the destruction of the US and they are going to use race to do it don't be stupid and fall into their trap. We are Americans first and there will be a day soon where we will have to defend life and liberty so know who your enemy is it isnot the black guy or the white guy. It is the elite rich European Bankers and the like that want only 400 million on planet earth.

  • these guys just want a crazy banana repubic government where they can shove people around like this.. good job interviewers!!!

  • Attention blacks.... DO NOT TALK TO THE WHITE PEOPLE!!!! They will make you look stupid and completely uneducated on camera. Not that it will matter because everybody already knows this

  • ACORN: if it weren't so bad for America it would be funny.

  • Obama will be out in 2012 and the first order of the White House and congress will be to repeal all the socialist legislation he and his cronies shoved down the throats of the American people while he WAS in office. He's the most divisive, inept, destructive president in the history of the United States and he's on his way OUT. Thank God!

  • wow they wouldn't let the people have a conversation outside on the sidewalk, open your eyes people!!

  • @rapturedup It's the only way they can protect their delusion...

  • you realize the President doesn't control every police officer in the country, right?

  • @1RealityBroadcasting that would be heavenly wouldn't it.

  • James Madison said that taxes should only be implemented during a time of crises or war.

    Read it for yourselves, get "The Triumvirate" at your local library.

  • Sheeps herding them selves

  • Healthcare is a joke these people cannot run a post office let alone be trusted for the "health" of our people. Just think when the laws are written by the healthcare companys who is going to make out the most ? Come on people get with the program they don't care about your health, You are a commodity used for work and if you are broken they want to fix you to go back to work, That is it. If you cannot pay taxes to fund the slackers you will be left behind because of "cuts".

  • @TheStrazy Amen!

  • @1RealityBroadcasting

    Oh, so Obama is going to GIVE healthcare to people. How nice.

    I was afraid maybe he was going to tax people's salaries directly and fund a huge bureaucracy to redistribute the money back to the people. That should make everything so much more affordable.

  • have these cops forgot where they live.... this is obama's bs.

  • I really hate that all of a sudden "good ole white folk" are made to look like a victim....lets not forget. Im actually glad to see the white folk get a taste of their own pie!!!!!...Im not racist, but this is in to response to all the be-littling things said on this page. Unhealthy? Bet you would love some of that good unhealthy cookin'. Probably need it...what you skin and bones, pale white?

  • @mzLADiiELo yea your right we should have left you all in africa so your own people could have killed you in a war for food. Yall really had yalls shit together there in africa. What a great place.Why dont you go back and start shit and see what happens to you. Go tell africa you want free health care. and rights. They will be glad to see you. I will chip in some money for your ticket. But you cant come back.

  • Unhealthy looking people, what do they eat?

    Health care = healthy people pay for unhealthy .

    so eat your vitamins and organic food, stay away from Vacinations so you can pay for the peoiple who are too stupid to be healthy

  • This is the STUPID attempt to prove any type of point. You went there to start trouble and got shut down -- as you should have. Get ready for another 4 years of Obama! :D

  • when is obams gonna get imprisoned, and then deported? Guy calls the cops. Send an officer over, there's a coon in my cellar. Cop says, be specific man, a raccoon or a nigger? Guy says, a raccoon, I'm a nigger. Go to: Her Name is Ms Ann. Then: Aaron Klein. Then: Larry Sinclair. Then: Phil Berg. Then: Rev. James Manning. This darkie must be jailed!

  • this cop lost his job i am hoping? He is violating civil rights left and right...the same thing his people fought and died for he is now denying others....what a dickhead negroid idiot!

  • @stars13x No, they get promotions when they violate civil rights. That's their job now. The higher ups want them to fuck our civil rights to death. That's how they can recognize who deserves a promotion to keep the chain of command pure.

  • @stars13x wow rasist much? Just because he did something wrong doesnt mean you have to be rascist. People have fought for equal rights for both blacks and whites as well, youre being hypocritical.

  • Well since we now have TSA, and ACORN, I guess I am not surprised that we have thought police. BTW Thanks for extending the Patriot Act Obama.

  • @avocadopunk I thought Obama said he was against the patriot ac.... Ooooh, I get it, he lied.

  • @AdamsSeed He did lie didn't he? ;)

  • 99% of the US population have smaller asset than the rest of 1%. Unless you are that 1%, I can't see why you would prefer free market over mixed market. For me, my interest is America's wealth, because stronger US currency is good for its investors.

  • @MASHDOTCOM I am not one of the one percent but i am middle class and it is because of the free market that i am.america has one of the largest middle class populations in the world and the free market is responsible for this.it is all these massive gov't programs that are driving state to declare bankruptcy and devaluing the dollar that are causing business' to flee states like california.fuck bush too just to be fair.

  • @cassidy99ful Um no, devaluating dollars increases businsses. That's why Obama is causing inflation in the US market, so that America's exports can have a competitive edge in the global market. And America is not a 'free market'. A free market is a nonderegulated market. Deregulation like the subprime mortgages on houses. If you think, all the houses in the US becoming worthless, and half the population in huge debt is good for America, then well...

  • FUCKIN' NIGGERS ARE THE SAME ALL OVER THIS COUNTRY! DUMB!!!

  • As for this dickhead copper, I thought it was land of the free home of the brave, you don't look that free to me, this is totally fuckin stupid and if I'm not wrong these people seem to be heading headlong into something they don't understand because they think it's based on colour or class, well it's fuckin not, it's based on your stupidity.

  • What the fuck is going on over there fuckheads. Listen to me, here in England we have a fully comprehensive healthcare system called the NHS, it was brought in by a Labour government which in your parlance means democrat, and you know what, we fuckin hate it, everyone hates it, we pretend we love it, as does our government, everyone says they love it, but we fuckin hate it, it wastes every single penny in our economy, and it's a political nightmare nobody wants to touch.

  • its geting ridicilous people dont give fc dont worry soon goverment gonna kill people how dont agree with tkings thats why they already hae thouse death camps buyld aroun america

  • They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

  • ACORN for a brain....

  • Conservatives are always attacking black people. Always.

  • The black woman is wrong. No one is under arrest. How is that resisting ? She's an idiot. If it was a public sidewalk then the vidographer was in tthe right & everyone else were wrong. Tipical demacrat communist showing their true selves...again. When will people open their eyes to see ?

    lmao :-)

  • wow you cant talk to people now, cool. Vi va LA Ra-sistance!

  • wasn't it Lincoln who said "government of the people, by the people, for the people".

    interestingly enough he was a republican

  • I'm sorry-- I thought THIS WAS AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Freedom of Speech!? We can't talk freely now? VOTE November 2nd!

  • wow that's absurd. You americans are living in a DICTATORSHIP! Freedom?? hauahauahauaha

  • wherever are blacks there is trouble with whites being around doing nothing blacks silence whites and fear whites blacks need a new planet all together this would be a better world without blacks.

  • Laugh Out Loud! "we now have government controled conversation" who is the ass hat who made this video? And where is their video in regaurds to the previous administrations "patriot act"? "we NOW have"... give me a fucking break!

  • Pres. Obama's Gestapo. This is just the beginning.

  •  Thugs, pure and simple. Gimme gimme gimme. F-ck them. Have a sh-tty day, ACORN worthless parasites. I won't break ONE bead of my sweat to sustain these useless, fat assed pieces of sh-t. "We wuz slaves, man we wuz slaves". Funny, I never owned one. If they want respect, they should EARN it. You don't ever demand respect, just because you exist. Look at Asians... Chinese, etc. They were "slaves," but they don't whine and cry about their forebear's past. They soldier on. Look and learn, blacks.

  • such ignorance

  • well first of all I agree with many of the posts here. I mean a police officer can't come up to you and tell you that you can't talk to someone. that comes with a court order. although he can tell you that you can'not harass someone which if the person says "Hey get that guy to leave me alone" then it's the duty of the cop to enforce it. But a cop can't tell you where you have to stand or that you can't go here or there. but it's the same as being a Packers fan and rooting in the Dallas box.etc

  • IMPEACH THE BLACK DEVIL

  • The sad reality is that law enforcement sometimes don't know the law and even if they do they twist it to make themselves seemably justified to say something stupid, even on camera. How can someone have a RIGHT to remain silent & have no rights to speak. He needs 2 b arrested impersonating an officer & using a security guard 4 backup.

  • Why do so many non blacks feel the need to walk to a bunch of blacks and harass them? This officer was trying to stop that lady from causing problems which is what she was trying to do because she doesnt like black people.

  • @thecaliforniaknight Good God, do really believe that? That has got to be the dumbest reasoning I have ever heard. Do you know her? did she tell you she doesn't like black people? seriously ? did you even watch the video. Does it matter that the cop was 100% wrong? God forbid that a white person actually interact with a black person. You are part of the problem.

  • @Fraxle

    She walked up to those people with the intent of drawing a bad reaction. She was harassing them after they told her to stop it and they just wanted protest in peace. The officer saw that and wanted to stop her from causing a problem. Why didnt she block their faces out before putting this on the internet? Because she wants to humiliate those people.

  • @thecaliforniaknight You assume an awful lot here.

  • @thecaliforniaknight Why doesn't anyone blot out people's faces when there are videos thrown up on youtube. First off, a right to assemble is everyone's right. The first problem found was the one woman was told by the officer that she could not stand there. The second was then the officer telling people they could not converse with anyone that was designated as being supportive.

    You see it as humiliation, then why don't we have police officers telling those in support, not to talk to others.

  • @thecaliforniaknight Oh, I see you are a BP starting a racist POV. Here's one, the first person that the woman talked to was a WM. The officer told her she could not talk to him and instructed the man, if you were paying attention, that he could talk to her, just not around the Acorn members. But of course, you're approach can be flipped as asking why do many BP feel the need to harass a bunch of WP, as clearly as this officer was doing. I don't think it's because he hates WP, but who knows.

  • Freedom of speech If a cop tells you you can't talk he/she is lame!

  • That policeman has a stick up his ass, and that woman who told them to listen to that policeman who the heck is she? This is retarded, you can't tell people not to talk to each other, that Obama supporter in the blue shirt was willing to talk...

  • lol "on page 16 it says if you get a new job it makes health care illegal"

    Why don't they just go around telling people that Obama is plotting to rape children? It's got about the same credibility.

    Since when does one fat stupid cop telling loud mouth shit disturbers to shut up equal a government conspiracy? He didn't even arrest them. He was trying to keep the peace because those big bitches with the acorn shirts were about to get violent and he didn't want to deal with that.

  • People do not have to do WHATEVER the police tell them to do. SORRY!!!! If they are not breaking the law, the police CANNOT tell them to leave or shut up.

  • A black woman telling white people to obey the cops? Really?

  • aww ur country have a bad government..Full of Illuminati peoples bunch of assholes

  • You can't even understand the coons

  • Amazing! I am so worried about the insanity of America. These groups "Acorn and such" are not Americans. "America" is the longest standing Constitution in the history of the world and a Bill Of Rights... not a group/s within our borders who buy into socialism as a "New Form Of Government".

  • If you type "Tianamen square massacre" in China, nothing shows up but pictures of parades.

  • won't b long before they censor the internet.

  • @billy9punk They are already trying to do that. It's called the FAIRNESS DOCTRINE!!! Also, Obama is trying to take control of the internet so that he can shut it down "incase of a threat to national security". Which translates into whenever people on the net are saying bad things about him. Congress also wants to make the net a public utility so that they can decide what gets shown on the web.

  • Comment removed

  • @mysticdragon75

    omg. yes, i notice that he's trying to take control of the internet. Some websites are even shut down too cause of this international security crap. fuck obama

  • That cop had no right to tell people they could not talk. It's called freedom of speech. He denied them their constitutional rights. He should be fired.

  • Where are all the ACORN typical white folk?

  • @jchittwood ,What do you mean?

  • @jchittwood I've never seen any white ACORN workers. They were all black or hispanic.

  • It won't be long now until this puke Obama will be out of power. Then these folks will want to be demonstrating in every street in every major city in America, and you can bet the cops will be there allowing them to do whatever they want and say whatever they want, and the media will be there to film it all and tell Americans how racist "the white folk" are.

    Please. We see in this video who the REAL racists are.

  • niggamoment

  • Is this all of ACORN? No. These are just some people from ACORN who think they have the right to tell people to shut up in Obama's name. I'm sure he doesn't agree with this.

  • @jb1563700 ...yes he does, they are his boots on the ground.......for now anyway !

  • @jb1563700 ...yes he does, they are his boots on the ground.......for now anyway !

  • @jb1563700 You know what though? It only took a few cops beating Rodney King to label EVERY white cop in america a racist.  It only took a few kids BATHING in the sinks at that fast food place to label the place disgusting. It only takes a few bad eggs in an organization to bring the WHOLE thing down.

  • its called freedom of speech and abuse of atherity from a stupid cop

  • It's the new world order of which obama is a puppet. Free people are there greatest enemy and soon people will fear to speak there minds.

  • You cant have civil conversations with people who have been told what to think, say or act on. People who are sheeple never want to stand toe to toe and discuss facts! Their marching orders are stand there and say nothing! And thats what ACORN did like good little sheeple. Although the big black chic in a red shirt was the one who called the cop over when someone was trying to educate her friend! Chris Rock was so correct!

  • The part that's sad is most of those acorn wearing shirt folks have ZERO clue why they were asked to stand there to protest. And thats a fact! The young lady video taping said word for word what's in the proposed national healthcare plan. And they still refused to believe it. The young lady even told her to "go look it up for herself"! But of course she won't because that would mean finding out she has been dooped! SO SAD!

  • WOW, how sad is that. Because ACORN doesnt want to talk, no one else around them can talk. Sounds like some childish school yard SH!T!!!! And that cop kept swinging his hands like he really didnt want to be there or answer why he was dead wrong on all his answers!

  • These black folks must work second or third shift. Else, they would not be able to be out there looking like thugs. Black people are so manipulated by the whites. Look, you have these liberal whites keeping them stirred up and that keeps them under their control. Funny!

  • QUOTE At 2:09 - "Let Me tell you something...If a police officer tell you to do something and you don't do it, your actually resisting."

    LOL...How do idiots like this get badges? Resisting is not illegal...what IS illegal is resisting arrest...so unless you are doing something which would lead to a lawful arrest simply resisting the whims and fancies of a cop is not illegal. A person employed in "Law Enforcement" should be a little more familiar with the law they are supposedly enforcing.

  • All that nygas uniformed and not should be send back home. To Africa!

  • Time to go back to Scandanavia

  • Why Scandinavia? What's there?
