....good time to start exercising Second Amendment rights, then...
Sue their butts off. I would.
Did you see the part where no one in the audience came to help her while she was being unlawfully detained? No one got up and left with her in solidarity. No group of men got up and told that cop to take his hands off of her. The fight has been diminished in everyday people.
Every one cuck, pedo, or both (usually both). Can't expect anything of value from them. And honestly, see my comment above
Yup
Second Amendment makes sure the First Amendment works, I think it’s time.
It's very telling that while the right to shoot is protected in the Constitution, it does not contain a right not to be shot at
Restricting that right to shoot in place of veneration of this fictional right not to be shot at is unconstitutional persecution
wait, what?
It doesn't. Where does it say that in the Constitution?
No I was honestly confused by what you said. I re-read it & think I got it.
You're saying "there's no right to NOT be shot, and it's unConstitutional for them to enforce this non-'right" in a government building is BS.
Right?
If so, agree 100%.
Exactly. Shooting is a right, "not being shot" is not, therefore it is unconstitutional for the government to prevent someone shooting someone else.
Yep that why it’s there
Also why we need high velocity, rapid reload, extended mags, etc...
I mean; couple totally critical points;
Our founding documents - specifically the BOR - restrict the powers of the GOVERNMENT, NOT the people. WE don't have to justify WHY we want to do something; it's our fucking right by default & the gov has to show where in the Constitution they were DELEGATED the power to restrict our rights. AT ALL>
As "We The People" ARE "The Militia"; the 2A EXPRESSLY & SPECIFICALLY protects military arms; ordnance; ACTUAL "weapons of war"
Amendment 10: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people."
Also because there's loads of targets :-)
Fuck yes!!! And ammo's relatively cheap! (Compared to our freedoms!!)
SURPRISE, SURPRISE local Govt is as corrupt as can be. AND i loved the Mayors costume, straight out of a Mafia Movie. Except the bosses usually dressed better. " Central Casting"!
Not surprised any more. Are you?
I was hi lighting the name of the town. WHat humor?
Deprivation of Civil Rights under Color of Law
This. This. This. X100
As you can see, the police are NOT on your side. They follow orders, not the law. Most police officers are low IQ drones. Do not interact with them, not even a friendly "hello". If you say something to them, They look at everyone as a potential criminal, not a citizen.
Used to work with them. Many are as you described. Some different.
Exactly. I tossed out all my thin blue line stuff at the beginning of this movie bullshit. I can no longer show blanket support for all police now. I will always support the concept of police upholding the LAW, but all these leftover dei hire yes men after the patriots were purged by the Vax mandates can lick my bawls.
Oh come on.
Police are just like the rest of us - human.
Yes, of course some are bad; but tI hink MOST are good. Otherwise, we'd see a hell of a lot MORE unjustified shootings, police brutality, etc.
Tyrants gonna tyrant.
Needs to be sue

I just sent him an email.
Subject line: The Little Man, Skippy
You are a little man who thinks he is a god.
A little tiny man who thinks his rules on a piece of paper entitles little man to be tyrannical.
A little man whom also believes he answers to no one.
A little man and his little minions doing his little work.
You are nothing but dust in the wind.
The only legacy you will have is you will be known as the little tiny man who was a traitor to AZ and the constitution.
(I am pretty sure men don't like being called little and tiny) Hope the girls who work in his office and who don't like him will giggle and make sure he sees it.
LOL.
Liberal men are like the loser who beat Jenny in Forest Gump. Big talker who beats women, but cowers like a pussy when confronted by real men.
I am so glad you are doing this. If it's my state, I would have done this too.
There are rules and there are laws, you can’t rule away my 1st amendment rights, she had the floor normally it’s 15 minutes, good judgment would of allowed her to speak her time, then, next person please instead of exposing your gestapo tactics
How I would do it. Used to sit on board of directors at my church in WA. When it's time for someone to speak, you let the person finish.
She needs to sue the fuck out of them and appeal every single judgment all the way up to the supreme court if all the lowers don't defend her right to free speech. Absolute insanity.
I would.
This is some BS right here. This is NOT 1st amendment anything. This is a city forum with rules. There are forums for bringing up concerns of hers, but clearly the rules of the city council meeting outline not using that particular forum for complaints against individuals. Salary of an individual I would argue falls within this. Grow up people. If I walked into a conference at work and started complaining about something not on topic (as this city council forum is for policy issues) I'd be canned if I pushed it. People confuse 1st amendment rights often and this is the case here. Hate me for this opinion, but this is going viral out of ignorance and people wanting to get behind the underdog. I don't care if someone agrees with rules or not, rules in a controlled public forum are there to keep things productive. This may be a fine line, sure - police response and charges are crap, but the bottom line is she chose the wrong place to lodge her complaint.
I understand your point, but IMO God-given rights should be construed as broadly as possible.
I listened to the substance of the woman’s concerns (what little she was able to get out before it became an argument about civil rights). She was complaining about lack of response on FOIA requests. Seems a legit topic to bring to the attention of the city council.
Ya, I'm not trying to be a jerk with my take on it, but in order to be heard you need to use the appropriate tact in any situation. This lady was complaining about the salary of someone while not performing FOIA requests... along the lines of "this person isn't doing their job" as opposed to "the City" isn't adhering to FOIA requests. There's a finite but critical difference involved.
Salary of an individual or salary of a paid position? I'd wager that we don't know all of the facts, but I do know that in a gray area like this I'm not going to side with the local government.
While its true rules are there to keep things productive, they are also often there to protect the power of the power hungry weenies that have made their way into office.
EDIT: Downdoot not mine, FWIW.
He’s not the boss of her. Why not let her speak?
To show her who's boss. That's what public 'servants' do these days.
Ya, downvotes were expected. There would be ways to bring up salary of a paid position outside of this forum, and if it were brought up in an appropriate manor I'm sure the same response wouldn't happen. But how much a position (grey area and the full context we're missing) vs. a person is the focus we don't know. She, however, is using it as an argument to not getting FOIA requests completed. And don't get me wrong, that Skip Hall guy could have handled it better for sure.
Yadda, yadda, yadda. That's a lot of long words to say "the government can silence dissent with brute force any time it wants"; which is a lot long words to say "I❤️ tyrrany".
You need to rethink your whole mindset on this. Screw the rules. The solution is the 2nd
This comment is the BS
"Rules" by public officials are not law. The constitution is there to keep these public officials in check and remind them that their "rules" hold no weight. Getting fired from a job for talking off topic is completely different than a public official, working for their constituents, silencing and arresting those with dissenting opinions. I don't really think that's a good analogy. No hate towards you or anything, but I 100% disagree. This isnt a private business, this is a public official who's boss is the people.
