A flashmob in Washington has felt the full force of the law, by being forcibly arrested by police - for dancing in public. They'd gathered at the Jefferson Memorial in defiance of a ban on dancing at the monument. Among those held were RT America presenter Adam Kokesh, who says he was slammed to the ground by officers. The ban came in during 2008 when an activist sued police for arresting her for public dancing. The group say they were paying tribute to her as a champion of the First Amendment, guaranteeing freedom, and in response to US District Judge John D. Bates' ruling that denounced dancing on the site.

    Notice the lemmings, 90% of the population, wander around watching, say nothing, then flee when told to.

    What a pathetic display by the police. Just shameful. Hope they all get fired somewhere down the line.

    Looking at those policemen, I realised that they are beings who have lost their humanity
