What it's like to be arrested and "processed" for doing nothing wrong.

Any of you guys live in New York? Can you tell us if any of this is true?

 

it is called pre emptive arrest.

the same shit happened in fucking shit Denmark (god bless denmark)

last week or so , so it is strange and fuckedup and yes i like the word f - u - c - k

 

I find it funny but yeh, they do that on purpose to get you guys from being annoying.

 

but i would rather give the police a pre emptive strike
(Wing Chun style)

and i am not normally in to using violence against the law

 

Thats what they want you to do. It does more damage to your movemenat/image than it does to the police.

 

madhatter256: spend a week or two in Denmark and feel the power of one of the best democrasies in the world

then you maybe move to DK and feel that USA (no offence to any americans here )

is really scary

 

it is a sick world we are living in 3 strikes and you are out is not my cop of tea and i am thank god not a criminal

 

I have an easier chance of taking advantage here than most other countries.

 

ok no worries

 

What do you mean, "taking advantage?" You mean taking advantage of the law, or the other way around?

What I was asking in the first place was are there any members who live in NYC who saw this happen first hand? I heard a lot about this on (public) radio, not much anywhere else.

Kind of makes me think that this sort of thing might happen on election night.

 

Both sides do it. It happened at the DNC as well any place where the canidates or their wives speak.

 

re

I'm only about half way through the story, but this is pretty fucked up so far.

I'm only 16, so I've never heard of anything like this happening before. Is it common? It just seems so wrong....

 

Hey Assembler, you live in NYC, have you talked to anyone that this happened to?
