Photographer arrested for taking pictures

Photographer arrested for just taking pictures at #OO protest. Followed police orders to step back yet was still arrested. All these officers should be fired for infringing on people's constitutional rights. This is a duplicate in case the original gets taken down.

Police: "Step back behind an imaginary line."

Photographer: "What line?" ^Steping back..., ^Steping back..., ^Steping back...

Police: ^Assaults Photographer.

Photographer: "Why am I being arrested?"

Police:  "We asked you to step back and you didn't."

Bystander: "Fuck You Pigs"

Priceless...

Just another example of corporation enforcement officers making rules up to justify their fancy dress outfit.

Lovely.... The man is ordered to get back behind a line, he asks for clarification as he backs up, continues backing up, they tell him get across the street, he starts crossing the street and then they rush him. Oh yeah, he was definitely breaking laws there...

You. Have got. To be kidding me.

Wow...false arrest at its best.

Pigs will be PIGS. Note: These cops committed FELONIES, they should be arrested and charged with these crimes. But we all know that will never happen. We have to stop these criminal gangs with badges.

Cops like this should be fired, and SHAMED by their communities! Post their full names and addresses, and gather outside their homes with signs to SHAME them and their families.

The NWO "imaginary line" - far enough away not to interfere with the banksters and their thug enforcement officers masquerading as "police".

Cops today or pathetic, really.

Cops are Criminals.

@ohfukpleasejustwork Shut the fuck up. He was making movement toward the imaginary line the officers were referring to. Cases like this have been beat in court time and time again. It has nothing to do with which way your face, or body is turned. FUCK YOU!

Update?

[KlingonSpider]

seriously what fucking line!?!??! you cant just say step back to the line and no such line exists. that's so ridiculous. it's almost comical really how retarded law enforcement officers are. you would think that a person to which public trust is granted and authority above the civilian issued, would be a smart person... but i guess if the person was smart they most likely wouldnt have decided to be a police officer. that must be it. idiots and weak-minded people become cops. now that makes sense

Remember folks, more they treat people in unjustly way, the less desired they become. It wont be long until the police and all these "aegis" of government become undesired by the great majority of people.
