I've had it. **** America. It used to stand for something. It used to be a beacon of hope and liberty.
No more.
There is no freedom, no hope, nothing that America once stood for. It's all an illusion now.

****ing absurd is all I can think to say.
So you think it's okay for the city of Denver to have the right to restrict protesting whenever/however they want?Originally Posted by Arri
I'm sure there are some things they aren't telling us, but still, they went a little overboard.

Lets see if these words are familiar in any way
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
And I always knew that things were in the shit-can, but for the first time, I no longer want my US citizenship.
I no longer want anything to do with this place.
And that kind of makes me sad, because I was born and raised here, and I grew up with the history of America being a place of hope and freedom. And, I knew that those two things have been in very short commodity lately, but I had hope that there was atleast enough left for a come-back to happen. I had hope.
1984, here we come.
Or well, not we, I hope. I hope to be gone by the that time.

America hasn't been about freedom.....well not total freedom.....
it's only freedom the government wishes to give you.
I hate politics and voting for someone based on what you hear from them in speeches....it's BS
how do you rely on someone who will just utter whatever we want to here, you never know who they really are.
police arent really the bad people it's the one giving the orders and other higher ups that are really the problem.
although when the rules were that they are not allowed to go to the center and they did....it's easy to see that the police had to enforce some act of control....although tear gas and other methods seemed a bit over the top....
the reason the country has become what it is today, is becuase the citizens are mostly to lazy to do anything but complain they usually never act out what they say they want to do.......which makes the government happy since the citizens are so easy to control......
also something was left out but another person said this
again this was not by me
How about you do your ****ing research before you make stupid videos about shit that you don't know about??? Or maybe you have something against police, maybe that's why you left out the fact that, that protest was made by a very violent anarchist group who had made numorous threats and plans to attack the democrats in that building????They we're publicly discussing their plans to march up to the building and "raise hell" on the occupants,on their website for god's sake!!!
Now I'll be the first one to admit that the government is taking advantage of it's power,but what i hate the most are ignorant people like you, who blame the people who are just trying to bring money home for their families,without even having a clue what the **** your talking about!!!

It's important to remember that all of this footage is heavily edited. The majority of protesters see a "peaceful protest" as a time to push the police to their limits and then cry about it when they get maced. I was a member of a protest group at one point, but the level of pure police-hate made it impossible to actually protest. These people would do nothing but scream at police and disobey simple commands just to get a rise out of them. One thing they'd do was throw small stones at police officers, and then film the reactions as though it was just unwarranted aggression.

I was also surprised it didn't spread to big news companies, though I might be wrong too. I dunno why, but I have a feeling its heavily edited, as Phoix said.
Either way, we're pretty much on a downward spiral

;/ Dewd yer being a drama queen, there's been so much more worse things ongoing for a while now and this is the last straw? I'm fine with how things are going in America, don't accuse me of denial though. I'm aware of all the terrible shit happening everywhere here, I'd much rather be here than say China or Iraq. ;o I'm just gonna become a billionaire and not give a shit, real talk dawg.

Way to be over-dramatic, people. After reading around, apparently the group who was protesting was in fact a group that's been giving the government problems for quite some time now. They're an Anarchy group who've been threatenin to do violent acts towards whatever. If you ask me, the police acting in advance speaks more than just letting them sit there. Stop over-reacting and realize that things are still going to be ok. You can't watch a small clip of what a PROTESTOR filmed. Do you honestly think they're going to show any acts of aggression/hostility from their point of view? Of course not! They just want you to think that big bad older Brother is out to get everyone!

The government is corrupt.
The law has failed.
Justice just means putting a person in jail, it doesn't mean necessarily to put the person at fault there.
The cake is a lie.
???
Profit!
I thought America was the land of opportunities.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that is exactly what big Brother WANTS you to think.
See? Its a vicious circle man.

Are you talking about the theory of Communism? Of course, it's great, but you're a dolt to think that people don't come into equation.

Some people here have become too lazy to care. We're free in spirit, Yes! But, not in action. We can't have our cake and eat it too.
Want the government to provide free health care? Yes sir!
Want the government to regulate businesses? Sure, as long as I benefit!
Ban fast food? **** yeah, I'm not responsible enough to choose what to eat anyway!
Restrict away our 2nd amendment rights? Yeah, infringing upon our rights a little bit won't hurt anyone, guns are stupid!
Enforce a curfew and harass random citizens? Hell Yea.....wait....maybe that's going too far....
Too ****ing late, you already proved that only the government knows what's good for you.
This has been going on in northern Arkansas.

People are such quivering cowards that they would rather be safe than free. Poor bastards.Now, if somebody wants to sue us, they have an option to sue, but I'm fairly certain that a judge will see it the way the way the citizens see it here," Mayor James Valley said. "The citizens deserve peace, that some infringement on constitutional rights is OK, and we have not violated anything as far as the Constitution.

Yes because we all know that the larger the amount of repressed=the better the country is.
You're sounding like a ****** that will take anything put down your throat, however dumb and limiting of YOUR RIGHTS it might be
On another note, I bet my life that you already "protested" against something in your life, may it have been an order from your parents or something you simply DIDN'T agree to, whatever it might have been and whatever might have been the reason to it, so if you weren't happy with it....
would you follow your ****ing advice smart ass?
