SFPD considers dialogue to be incitement

The San Francisco Police Sergeant (badge 324) at the scene on March 7th, 2008 at the pro-terror rally threatened to arrest for incitement a well meaning man who wished to engage the pro-terror Islamists and leftists in a dialogue. He wanted common ground for peace.

To the SF Police Department, a call for dialogue is incitement. Our previous interactions with them have been threats to be arrested for flags slightly touching people, being told we have no right to be on a sidewalk (but anti-Israel activists have full access, even if we have the permit) and being forced to endure extreme harrassment by anti-Israel extremists at the entrance to pro-Israel events.

This is not surprising for a department best known for mugging a man for a fajita.

G-d bless YouTube for enabling the public to expose the bad elements in certain police departments.

While the SFPD has been very problematic, other cities are more fair and there are many fair police officers within the SFPD.

Using offensive words to provoke violence is an arrestable offense. Be careful next time you commie faggots start lipping off!

So nice to hear from the "brown" division of the "Red-Green-Brown" anti-Israel alliance.

Offensive words? You can see the exact comments that caused the cop to get his panties in a knot at the "Invitation to Dialoge" video, to which this is a response.

Law student says : words are incitement. Duh.

[bluetruth36]

So all words are incitement. I guess then we should all be silent. Is that what you suggest?

[sykopoet]

If you are in the midst of a screaming match with police and/or people who hold different political views than you, your words can be considered incitement because they are likely to cause a violent reaction. It's up to you to decide if your cause is important enough to incite that reaction.

The incident in question was a man who calmly invited others on the other side of the street to a dialogue. You can see the exact things he said in the video entitled.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the street they were chanting "With our spirit and our blood we will be be martyrs for Palestine," "Jews are our dogs" and lots of other offensive things.

An invitation to dialogue is not incitement.

I'm sorry. That should have read "the video entitled 'Invitation to dialogue" in my video list.

FWIW, the SFPD were much better in protecting our rights and keeping us from harm at the pro-terror/anti-Israel rap concert on March 10th in Downtown SF.

"palistine needs to be freed"

Yes. Freed from Hamas, suicide bombers, and its many Kassam rocket launchers.

'Palestine'. Never was. Never will. Israel, Forever. And please, Arabs and Muslims, learn to respect Israel as your neighbors! I will do so if I were you, Harry1960Wheeler. And please, learn how to respect the police officers in San Francisco who are doing their job to restore order.
