This is bullsh*t. Seriously, they were dancing. Big friggin' deal.

We shouldn't need a damn permit to say things. Limits of free speech and expression don't inhibit this kind of thing.

It's a protest. People are allowed to do it. Get over it you censorious jerk-wads.

Despite the fact that they were doing something to tempt the law, that they should not have been doing, there is no getting around how unnecessary this is.

When they have the proper permits. This guy has some Youtube show and this is all he does. He was also protesting nothing. He just wanted to mess with police officers. If he had a point it would seem a lot less stupid then it does.

Nothing says "Free Speech" and "Right to Assemble" like needing a permit.

Getting a permit for a protest actually protects the protestors. It gives the proper authorities the time they need to be on hand to keep the peace if things go down.

It was harmless. As long as it remains such, I couldn't give less of a damn what he was doing.


Jester does make a good point. Still, groups who protest don't need to tell anyone what the hell they're planning. Sure, it's a double edged sword, but you have to take the good with the bad. That's freedom.

"Those willing to sacrifice freedom for safety deserve neither." Go live in North Korea if you don't like people demanding basic civil liberties, goobers.

This reminds me of my days at my private Christian high school. We had a dinner instead of a prom, where dancing was FORBODEN! "because dancing leads to sex".

I pretty much said the exact same thing elsewhere a little while ago.

That was some funny stuff! My favorite was the guy with the "Disobey" shirt. "You can dance if you want to, you can leave your worries behind!" That is one stupid law! We need more flash dancing everywhere!
