Nothing to see here, just people vying for your vote to rule your country. Nothing important or anything... - Dan: Bibrarian

WTF?!?! - JA Castillo

'During the arrest, one of the officers can be heard saying to Eslocker, "You're lucky I didn't knock the f..k out of you."' Would someone explain to me again what constitutes terroristic threatening? Ok, maybe I'll Google it. - a runcible MiniMage

A cigar-smoking cop says "You're under arrest buster.", you can't get more stereotypical than that. I thought those kind of cops were only in the movies. I'm sure there's more to the story than what we're seeing here. I don't trust the press enough to believe that what was released is all there is. - Kenton

Pretty weak Abby. - Mattb4rd

Our civil liberties have been eroded way before W's America Abby. - Michael Tefft

BTW Abby, Obama voted for warrantless wiretaps. - Michael Tefft

Although I agree with Michael that civil liberties had been eroded before "W", no administration has done more damage to the Bill of Rights than W's. - Anthony Citrano

It's tough to say that it's 100% true About of being W's fault. But I can't Belive this - Roberto Bonini

blogged on this this morning. This is terrible. - Thomas Hawk

Ill be the first one to complain about this, but we didn't see what the photographer was doing before the Police told him to stop. Does anyone know what they were doing that caused the police to come over in the first place? - Andrew Baron

Haven't cops got better things to do? What a waste of public money. - Paul Grav

Thanks Thomas - wish we could link our FF threads in a more substantive way. Great info on yours, too: http://friendfeed.com/e... - Anthony Citrano

don't know exactly what the reporter did but it seemed pretty ridiculous to me - Esther

The cop pushing the guy in the chest kinda looks like assault to me. It would be if it were anyone else doing it. - Dave Roth

@Dave: yes - and he's not just pushing him, he's pushing him into traffic. - Anthony Citrano
