Now
the Chicago police department is following Obama’s example and telling people
that their First Amendment rights can be terminated anytime. Check out
the incident caught on camera when a couple of news reporters were trying to
cover a story outside a Chicago hospital.
Following
the threat, the officer arrested the two journalists. Even though they were
released a short time later, the incident has not gone unnoticed. According to
the National Press Photographers Association, there have been 70 such arrests
that they have documented since last September. Many of the arrests have
involved the filming of news stories when the police decide they don’t want to
allow it to be filmed. They seem to just arbitrarily decide on their own when
it is legal and when it isn’t.
