Occupy Austin was shut out of the Capitol on day one. Three NEW policy changes made "in the past 30 days" now limit our access...
1. There is now NO protected free-speech zone anywhere on the capitol grounds.
2. Without a permit we are not allowed to gather ANYWHERE on the property for more than 3 hours as a group in a 24 hour period.
3. Capitol access has been changed from 24 hours to between 6am and 10pm.
"Congress shall make no law abridging the right of free speech..."
abridge: (verb) - to reduce or lessen in duration, scope, authority, etc.; diminish, curtail. [to abridge a visit; to abridge one's freedoms.]

Keep chewing that gum, if that's what keeps you from punching protesters, dude. That's totally classy! Now, move along--don't you have some Meth addicts to arrest? Maybe some Child Molesters? Plenty of them in your neck of the woods. Spoken by an EX Texan.

The only free speech is whatever cops want to say and, by profession, they do not have to tell the truth and can lie all they want as an investigating tool.
