"Video shows Boston police officers throwing an apparent temper tantrum after a loud-mouthed man voiced his opinion about the police. The young man then stops his shenanigans and proceeds to walk off. But the cops already smelled blood in the water, and a feeding frenzy began. Regardless of how idiotic this man’s actions were, the resultant reaction from police was entirely unwarranted. As the Washington State Supreme Court recently ruled, swearing at police is constitutionally protected speech. But legal boundaries were apparently ripe for crossing. The officers arrest the man, without incident, for his free speech. But when the man begins showing off for the camera and shouting “f- the police†again, the uniformed cop proceeds to strangle him." - Via The Thought Project. Posted By Persist
