"Because the Torture of Innocent People Demands It" (Cops Cuff a Man for Allegedly Swearing)

Week 52: Group member Kirk is handcuffed and put in a police car based on accusations of "shouting vulgar language" to a driver while Palina's attacker still remains free. Footage of that attack, which occurred on the same corner, can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAJCgJlUfcQ

But then you little bitches run to the police when ever someone insults you..I watched the other videos where you cowards were getting plate numbers for people offending you..You guys don't make any sense..It's ok that that the police, who protect all of us, get killed in our own country trying to protect the citizens.but holy fuck if our guys kill the bastards that killed how many on 9/11?? Sign up for the army and try to change things if you don't like it, you can be openly gay now so ur good

@dobermanman4 Right, because filming a license plate number *definitely* means you're going to the cops. Assumptions are the precise thing that leads people to think that everyone in Guantánamo is a terrorist, even though over 600 have been released by our own government and 89 that are still there are also cleared for release. And that would be about 3,000 civiliians killed on 9/11. Our brave, brave army started a war that killed over 100,000 civilians. Yes, civilians, not "the bastards".

@JustinNorman 2:15. "Police haven't arrested that person even though charges were pressed." hahaha.... you guys are awful protestors.... Talk about being brave, you don't know what brave is. You hide behind some video camera to protect your coward ass if anything goes wrong.. Why else would you film a plate number??

[JustinNorman]

@dobermanman4 Again, just pointing out the obvious: highlighting the hypocrisy of police does not equate to "running to the cops". A cop arrived at the scene where a coward man struck a hooded, kneeling woman in our group in the face rather than any of the three men who were standing there. Cops asked her questions and she answered. And, astoundingly enough, having the common sense to document assaults does not equate to stupidity. Strike a woman in the face, and yes, you will face retaliation.

That little bad faggot probably blew on the cops dick. Corrupt pigs once again.

[JustinNorman]

@SkullTuffBikes There's zero need for homophobia here (or anywhere). The guy was clearly acting hypocritically because he didn't like the subject matter of the demonstration about those unjustly held without charge or trial in Guantánamo. If you want to jab at the guy, there are plenty of credible reasons that have nothing to do with speculation about his sexual preferences.

[993pk993]

Why didn't the protestors have the cops detain the guy that said 'fuck' and 'shit' right in front of them, and issue him a citation as well?

Why wouldn't the cops have done it right then and there without anyone asking them, since they witnessed it? Double standards much?

Land of the free my ass.

[freebsddude]

I was hoping theyd send kirk to big house, to be ass raped by bubba. I wouldnt protest that.

[SirBubbaDogge]

Come on these videos are for idiots and those who have no respect for authority......Get real!!!!

[SkullTuffBikes]

@Hateocracy True point!

[SkullTuffBikes]

@SkullTuffBikes I meant bald faggot he even talked gay. His version of a "beatdown" is "meatdown" while he sucks one and takes it up the ass.
