  • @andrewcnzz Who is "the rest of us." According to your profile you are one of us.

  • It is a sad state when we can't tape our own elected officials.

  • did that fat fugging cop put his hand on his gun ?

    this thing with the silencing cameras now needs to be stopped immediately.

  • Anyone else see that clown put his hand on his gun? He should be demoted to mall cop after that little display. (No disrespect to mall cops, thanks for keeping the escalators free of unruly teenagers.)

  • @andrewcnzz In some ways we are. Buy we have a big gun.

  • its just like the cops that want to be able to film you 24/7, but if you try and take 30 seconds worth of video of them, they take your camera and try to arrest you.

    we live in a joke of a country.

  • Americans are Hilarious. The rest of us think your a Joke.

  • Who is suprised?

  • @wbauerle:

    Glad you noticed my "handle"....

    Sadly, you're one who's got the dis-ease of Islamaphobia.

    You're calling radicals "Islam", which is an indicator of your sickness. There are non-Muslims committing the same crimes all around the world, but you won't blame the religion that they claim to practice.

    The 1st thing to do is recognize that you have the disease (Islamaphobia - an IRRATIONAL FEAR of Islam & anything related to it). Then you can begin steps to be cured of this disease.

  • What's new!!! New York City Police don't allow you to photograph anything anywhere with a tripod, unless you have a permit from the mayors office. The mayors office only gives permits to well establishes media people. This isn't a free country anymore.
