“When you do something like this you need a second person filming and recording from a distance and transmitting to a secure, out of jurisdiction, location.”

No. You organize the local American Legion and VFW to show up at the city council meeting. You tell them to fire the a$$hole police chief or else. You make it known to the council members that you’ll throw their butts out of office. We used that technique to fire two police chiefs in my community.

Get involved in your local government, patriots.

Her real offense was interfering with revenue collection.

[Melpomene]

Funny thing, her presence was deterring speeders...she was helping! They should give her an honorary deputy badge!

[MindBender26]

I think SCOTUS just ruled such action, as long as it did not physically interfere with the LEOs or obstruct traffic, was perfectly legal.

[Sirius Lee]

She was the lookout for the criminals, and that’s okay?

I'm okay with that. In what way is it a crime for a citizen to warn other citizens to slow down?

[Huebolt]

The court has already ruled in a simlar case and said it is free speech.

You got it!!!!

[Future Snake Eater]

She was the lookout for the criminals, and that’s okay?

What criminals?

[Timber Rattler]

So, standing on a public sidewalk and holding a sign warning motorists to obey the law is now a crime???

The officer, City, Police Chief should be sued for knowingly abusing authority and violating her constitutional rights. I wonder if anyone reads the Constitution anymore.

Also, a person can be arrested for dropping coins in expiring parking meters. That one puzzles me.

She won’t need a defenswe fund. I’m sure some sharp greedy lawyer has already contacted her about suing the city.

[geege]

I don’t really do it too much if there’s a cop hiding but if there are deer up ahead or any animal then I flash and they do slow down.....

[Blood of Tyrants]

Lawyers got to eat, too.

[JDW11235]

There’s only two classes of people. The criminals with a badge, and the criminals without one.

[MileHi]

Kinda’ loose on who you call a “criminal” aren’t ya’?

[Lurker]

Looks like she found criminals alright, and they emerge wearing badges.

[sergeantdave]

People need to understand that you need to confront leftists, not send them some idiotic love note, hoping for better relations in the future. That’s what moron RINOs do.

Patriots need to get in the fascist faces of leftists. Threaten these commies in dark parking lots. Tell them that their homo eye makeup makes them look like Hitler.

This is not a tiddly-winks tournament. This is war.

[Jack Hydrazine]

“Lawyers got to eat, too.”

So do the tax enforcers (police) and the tax collectors (traffic law judges)!

[Salgak]

Yes, Lawyers DO have to eat. I suggest locking several in a room, and throwing in a bottle of ketchup and shaker of salt.

Then brick the door over. . . (evil grin)

[Blood of Tyrants]

The difference is that if there is money involved the lawyer will gladly be on your side.
