Regardless what the kid did or said, the military or national guard has no jurisdiction with regards to law enforcement in the U.S. against citizens. None. As far as I know. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 780581 United States09/27/2009 06:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Three soldiers grabbing someone while a fourth (cop?) keeps the rest at AR-15 gunpoint? The suspect is sandwiched into an unmarked car and whisked away. Quoting: EdenIncredible? Camera does not lie. I am not speechless often but ... uh.. ... I've watched it a few times on full screen to see what type of gun that was..The best I can tell is that it was a shootgun, I could be wrong, btw, alot LEOs don't carry AR15s anymore, they carry full battle M16 and M4 rifles. Everyone keeps talking about posse comitatus??? WTF it's no diff with todays LEOs walking around in full body armor, and full auto weapons. Come on they are almost all ex-military, battle trained and hardened. They have APCs!!! Come on this is a full police state. What will it take for people to realize it's here? When popo starts flying raptors w/ red and blue lightes on it. I'm gonna go ahead and shut up now, because I'm starting to freak myself out!  |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 151657  Japan09/27/2009 09:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Not illegal... STAGED! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 638101Thats how it looked to me. However the youths just stood around, filming rather than trying to engage with the officers, and ask what offence had been commited. They could have made something up in response. however no one did, they all just stood and watched. This is the youth that may have to defend america one day. It's also a little silly being on your own at a protest/riot anyway. Always use the buddy system! |
| DSP User ID: 754366 United States09/27/2009 09:35 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There's no way it was the military, for several reasons. First, the BDUs they're wearing have no markings. That leads me to believe they were bought on the open market. Second, these guys have no idea what the fuck military tactics are. That was sloppy as hell. Third, even if it were a military special op, there is no way they'd be wearing BDUs. Period. Fourth, that was so non-covert it's ridiculous. It was obviously a play for publicity. "The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as His father, in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter." - Thomas Jefferson "During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry, and persecution." - James Madison "The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity." - John Adams "Religious controversies are always productive of more acrimony and irreconcilable hatreds than those which spring from any other cause. I had hoped that liberal and enlightened thought would have reconciled the Christians so that their religious fights would not endanger the peace of Society." - George Washington "I have found Christian dogma unintelligible. Early in life, I absenteed myself from Christian assemblies." - Benjamin Franklin |
