  so today i was asked my thoughts on the pool party incident in mcminney, texas.

  my response: it shows a clash of expectations.

  i saw police officers who expected citizens to listen to and follow instructions.

  For the most part, sidewalks in the USA are on public right of way.

  You say they are public right of way, Morpheus says they are private land - who is right! I suspect you are, as being private land makes zero sense!

  How do people walk on them to get home then, without being arrest for trespassing?

  Who are they trespassing against?

  How does a courier or postman delivery anything, do they have to teleport to the house and back out again?

  Deeming roads & sidewalks as private and saying being on them is trespassing must make life extremely hard!

  tenyearsafter - you probably just need to look at how other country's police force act. I don't like how the UK is becoming USA-lite, but you [generally] never, ever, see that kind of behaviour here. If you can get past your US-centric views it's obvious to most of the planet there are SO many ways to deal with a situation without literally running in, shouting, swearing, swinging a weapon around and handcuffing people.

  So, in the USA, all sidewalks are private property, and anyone walking on them is trespassing. You are hilarious.

  Public land? Rotfl. You just showed how ignorant you are of this situation.

  1) it very plainly is NOT public land. Its a privatly owned and run community pool.

  
  

  This is a community pool? Looks like roads/pavements/grass on a housing estate to me. You have weird looking community pools in the US
  

  2) disturbing the piece and public land are not mutually exclusive. People are arrested all the time for distubing the peace on both public and PRIVATE property. Owning the land does not give you the right to disturb the peace on it. They clearly were breaking the law as house parties for decades have done. They get shut down all the time. Nobody cries.

  1) You should learn to spell basic words before you patronise me like I'm some kind of idiot.

  2) I never mentioned a connection between "disturbing the piece" [sic] and location, you made that up. Pointless strawman.

  "When the police make a reasonable request you should follow it."

  Why? Telling someone to sit on the ground is not a reasonable request, they are PUBLIC SERVANTS, they serve the public, they are not there to demand people sit on the ground while they power trip. Unless someone is under arrest or being detained then they have no obligation to obey the word of another human being, let alone one there to serve them.

  "they were committing a crime. Its called disturbing the peace and trespassing"

  I watched the video, the only people disturbing the peace were the gangsters/executioners the USA call police, and how are the trespassing on public land?

  "All that has to be reserved for the brat who can't follow simple orders "

  Why should she follow orders Simon?

  Unbelievable that there is even debate on this. The US is a police state and the majority of civilised people are disgusted at this. The youths in the video had committed no crime and are under no obligation to take orders from a public servant, why a policeman thinks he has the authority to demand people stay on the ground, and then handcuff and wrestle them down is beyond me - nothing but assault. He should be in jail.

  Tsarnaev guilty - should he get death or not?

  by Simon in

  i think he probably will (it is the us after all) but i hope he doesn't.

  he caused incredible pain and suffering to men, women and children who had never done anything to him.

  many died in unimaginable agony, others are disabled for life.

  "That being said, if the UK does opt out of Europe in the 2017 referendum, it could just return to bite the JW's in their didactic backsides.."

  The UK can't opt out of Europe, it is in Europe. You mean the EU? If so, what difference would that make?

  And it won't happen.
