He will station more than 40 officers on the traditional four-block route tonight, with two SWAT teams patrolling nearby. All have orders to arrest gourd-topped streakers as sex offenders. [More]Just in case anybody wants to rob a bank or a liquor store on the other side of town...
Glad to see they have the resources for this. The economy must be pretty good there.
These people are out of their gourds.

Streakers as sex offenders?!?!? Are these people insane???
ReplyDeleteNo. It's part of the plan to humiliate, abase, and tyrannize the people, and ban them from guns for life.
Keep your powder dry.
SWAT teams for pumpkin runners.
ReplyDelete"....O'er the Laaaaand of the Freeeeeeee...." barf.
And to think I used to live a coupla towns away. I've still got friends in the People's Republik.
ReplyDeleteI wrote about this, too, right after Halloween.
Back in the early 70’s, when I was a Dallas PD officer, streaking got to be a sport of choice for those who had just graduated from high school. One night about midnight I arrested a young man who ran out of the Adolphus Hotel, downtown Dallas, after his post graduation party wearing nothing but a smile and a pair of brown shoes.
ReplyDeleteWhen I found out the city was fining streakers $200.00 and men who beat their wives were getting off with a $25.00 fine I found other things to keep me busy on the young streaker’s court date. The kid was found not guilty because the state’s witness didn’t show in court. He got his bond money returned, probably received a lecture from the judge, and was sent on his way. I received a letter of reprimand and that was the end of things.
Boulder, CO, as was Dallas, TX, is probably covered up with alligators in the swamp and the powers that be are overly concerned with a few hopping toad frogs.

Good for them - the streakers.
ReplyDeleteDid the same myself in college, in the 70's - makes me, what, one of the umpteen million or so who can say that.
And you on the same side as the ACLU!
Wonders, will they never cease?

So close.
Why a wonder, Scott? You must not have been reading long. I've "sided" with the ACLU before, notably when they joined with NRA in opposition to McCain/Feingold. About the only time I can recall publicly opposing them was in a piece on another site over 10 years ago when Ramona Ripston ducked a direct question and tried to pass off propaganda to "prove" the Second Amendment a "collective right."
ReplyDeleteI suspect you've fallen for the oft-repeated lie that gun rights activists are only interested in guns and the hell with everything else?
I'm a full Bill of Rights promoter here, and an equal opportunity critic of all kinds of fascism, whether it comes from either of the two establishment political parties.
The slogan is true: It's not about guns, it's about freedom.
