Dancing While White
Giuliani was tough but fair. These people are self-worshipping power junkies.
Well at least they wont have to be subjected to stop and frisk. Law abiding citizens having some fun, but thats not allowed!!!

Bloomberg is a Baptist?
Does one need an ID to travel on NYC subway now?
And there it is, the gem of the encounter - citizens get sick and tired of being bullied, pull out the camera so others can see how insane it is, and they get tackled by the cops. Interestingly there's nothing said as to what happened to the footage - wonder if it was confiscated for evidence, or accidentally deleted like such things happen so often. Hope the couple when they filed their lawsuit sent out a subpoena for the footage from the platform cameras.
And 23 hours in custody?? Wasn't there, but don't particularly care what was apparently said by the couple. If the cops wanted to be jerks and tell the couple to stop dancing on an empty platform, that was the entire limit of the encounter. Anything beyond that is pure abuse of power.
“We brought out the camera, and that’s when they called backup,” she said. “That’s when eight ninja cops came from out of nowhere.”
Hess was allegedly tackled to the platform floor, and cuffs were slapped on both of them. The initial charge, according to Stern, was disorderly conduct for “impeding the flow of traffic.”
Want to really piss off a cop....whole them accountable by recording their behavior...
I guess the cops thought intimation would work...
It was this man, he started it.
2) Even NYC police have teeth and need to see dentists.
"Let's just check if you're numb yet, there officer". Whoops, guess not.....Sorry let's try again.
After reading 38 replies on this thread, I’m going to venture the opposite opinion: These people should not have been dancing on the subway platform.
The subways were built when the population of the city was lower and the number of people using the subways was smaller. The platforms are narrow, and at the worst of times dangerously crowded.
There is probably an ordinance against dancing on the platform—I’m not sure. If there weren’t, there would be dancers everywhere there is a musician playing music that you can dance to.
My guess is that these two people were typical liberal “we hate the cops” people. Taking out the camera was the biggest tipoff. I have had it up to here with these people (hand held over eyebrows).
There is nothing wrong with the NYPD outside of aberrant behavior of individual cops. They do a great job and are truly amazing. I can’t imagine living here if they didn’t do the job that they do. If we had cops who sided with the liberals, I think I would move somewhere else.
That’s nothing... story on FOX says a fella was arrested for resisting arrest. How does that work?
PO—Sir, you’re under arrest
Cit— What for?! I’ve done nothing!
PO— writes up charges—he resisted arrest.
