I have never understood why assault & battery charges are never filed, in addition to mandatory AIDS testing for those union thug losers, who think spitting is protected speech.
Same with bullhorns; even when "outside," how on earth can that EVER be allowed? Doesn't matter if it's a meeting of progressive dingbats, or Right-to-work conservatives, that's not civilized behavior. There's nothing difficult to understand about the irritation potential of very loud noise.
What's next? Pepper spray?

I think the answer to your question might have something to do with the answer to another, namely this: do the local police belong to a union?
