mespe, this is disturbing. It'd be great if you could get the couple to tell their story on NP.

Good find, mespe, this is a regular occurance in some communities and is rarely, if ever reported.

I also pointed this story out to Drudgereport,,, let's see if they publish it. This story really bothers me, because I know that police will lie to cover their Ass.

Just another example of law enforcements selective enforcement.

I tend to lean to the right but these stories frighten me. While I'd disagree with the way they want to display their concerns to the rest of us, they have every right to do just that and I'd defend that right. It's almost cliche to point it out but don't the police in that area have any real criminals to deal with? Have they really solved the other problems there and have so much time on their hands that they should pursue political-speech and thought crimes? These folks are fortunate to have not been shot...that's happening way too often today.
