I believe many OWS protestors have logged some jail time.

Killing grass is the same as burning down a stadium except in degree? Boy, that's a new wingerism. You should pass it on to Faux, Thunker, and Annie Coulter.

If we let every asshole in America carry a gun, we are going to get an increasing number of outrageous and brainless slaughterings.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A man has been shot in the head and killed during the filming of an amateur rap video in Philadelphia.

The shooting happened Thursday night in front of a crowd of about 100 people. Police say the man was in his late 20s or early 30s.

After he was shot, he was accidentally run over by a car trying to leave the scene. Police say the driver won't be charged.

Authorities say three gun-wielding men were arrested shortly afterward and one has been identified by witnesses as the shooter.

The motive for the shooting is unclear. Police say they're unsure if the man killed was the target or if he was a part of the video or a spectator.

Civil disobedience is a frequent characteristic of successful protests.

...and jail time is a frequent characteristic of civil disobedience.

Ya simply cannot take over public property and destroy it to get your way, no matter how much attention it gets ya. Civil disobedience is when ya don't pay your taxes, not when ya destroy property. Suppoze I decided to burn down the Falcon stadium to protest a bad call by referee's? The difference in killing the grass in a public park and burning down a stadium is only in degree.

Sometimes it's the only thing that grabs the public's attention.

...freedom of speech guarantees you the right to say what you want. It does not guarantee you an audience.

And now a brief word about that zimmerman guy in florida who allegedly shot the "unarmed teenager".  

...this should be investigate thoroughly and if he is guilty of what they say, he should be punished appropriately. On the other side of the coin, the more I hear from Al Sharpton and the protesters who are being bussed in from all over the country (at who's expense I might ask) the less I give a crap. The mere presence of certain individuals at a protest totally destroys it's credibility.
