So why is Reggieworth complaining about his rights?"

in the course of lawful duty the officers are required to still respect the constitution
xxYoutubePopo-imposter-TROLL is just not smart enough to understan that police can violate rights while performing their duties

the kid was facing jailtime & heavy fines but ended up with none. i beleive it was in exchange for not bringing the rights violations into court

do not feed the police imposter TROLL

vette, do you realize you just said, in essence, 'I don't know what happened, but he did nothing wrong.'?
Here are the facts. The Q&A was announced to be over & Meyer got mad that he wasn't going to get to ask a question, started yelling at Kerry & pushing his way to the mic. He was confronted by ACCENT, the group that sponsored the forum, & Police & was ordered to leave. He refused to do so. That's Disturbing the Peace &, under Fl law, Trespassing. He was being physically removed..cont..)

vette cont..).. by Police when Kerry intervened & asked that he be allowed to ask his question. ACCENT & Police chose to honor that request but that did NOT mean that he was immune from forum rules & it did NOT mean that the Police were to just forget about his earlier, ILLEGAL, actions. Prior to speaking at the mic the Police told him that they were going to need to speak to him after his question & he was reminded about the forum rules. Those rules were:ONE question per person(he ..cont..)

vette cont..).. asked 5+), 30 seconds to preface it(he rambled on for a minute & a half before the mic was finaly cut) & everyone was told that ANY use of obscenities would result in ACCENT cutting the mic. Meyer CHOSE to break ALL of those rules & ACCENT Director Max Tyroler chose to exercise his right to enforce those rules & gave the signal to cut the mic. The Police were then escorting him out, NOT arresting him. Not until his continued ILLEGAL actions warrented it. Meyer CHOSE ..cont..)

vette cont..).. to violently resist that lawful removal & tried to get others to interfere with the Police. That's Resisting an Officer with Violence & Inciting a Riot & THAT is why he was arrested. He made a second attempt to get away at the back of the room & was taken to the ground where he CHOSE to ignore REPEATED orders to stop resisting even AFTER being warned he'd be "tased" if he didn't comply. He brought it all on himself by his illegal actions & idiotic decisions that day.

never mind redrumrob, hes just the local TROLL
obsessed with this video for OVER TWO YEARS he regularly engages loads of random people with this prepared statement full of bias & bullshit

hes just hoping you will point out the inconsistencies so he can cut into you with an endless stream of profanities

i suggest you scroll down & see his treatment of others before feeding the deranged TROLL

btw, the kid in the vid only faced 2 charges in court, not all that stuff TROLLboy lists
