NYC Arrest!! (VIDEO)
 

"Many of you have heard by now that I was arrested on Saturday while describing my bicycle to Ron Reagan for MSNBC's Hardball. As a result, the Bikes Against Bush performance will have to be postponed until further notice."

see quicktime video

The audio is not very clear. Exactly what happened there?

SpaceAce

the guy had this amazing bike that sprays out chalk text of whatever he programs, as he rides. he was going to ride around the city imprinting (washable) messages in protest of the bush administration.

ron reagan was interviewing him about this when a van came up, cops got out and took him off to lil gitmo

some troublemaker on a bike was arrested.

don't forget...preemptively. ala the new facist regime :winkwink:

ahahaha... I bet you would have been saying the same thing about troublemaking Jews being hauled off by the S.S. if you were alive in Hitler's Germany.

The only rights you give a shit about are yours.

bump. just to piss off mr clicks :thumbsup

Beatings will continue until morale improves...

guess he didn't have his "peaceful protestor" card on hand

ROFL

awwwwwww, feel bad for a fellow bike riding loser?
just keep screaming Nazi. :1orglaugh

we don't want losers defacing public property. him *saying* it washes off means nothing. obey the law or go to jail.

Why the handcuffs ? He doesn't look really agressive !?

thats fucked up fuckin renta pigs pieces of shit NYC cops are all low life scum bags who make $25k a year to do that bullshit fuckin PIGS, thats completely ridiculous and then did you see the captain pushing the journalist and then the dude made sure he got both the van and cop cars licencse plates i hope they have a higher quality vid with there names and badge #s and shit possibly fuckin scum bags have nothing better to do with there life theres 1000s of fuckin drug dealers addicts and rif raf all through out NYC and they pull this bullshit on this guy GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE we need to take a stand against this type of bullshit FUCK BUSH FUCK THE GOVERNMENT

indeed

just a process, remember they said mike wallace (86 year old man) looked like a threat, they put him in cuffs too

Not having identification papers :1orglaugh

Just some power hungry policemen who like to show off.

look the big problem in the city is that you let one guy do this and before you know the city will be covered with spray paint thats not so easy removed

its not easy being a cop on the city in these days, its like they get heat regardless of what they do

as far as cop scum guess what doesnt matter where on plaent earth you are, some people will abuse their powers

Here is a tip you see a cop thats not doing something right get used to file a report with Internal Affairs if poeople start doing this cops will be carful before jumping gun

:thumbsup Thumbs up to that!

ahhhh, the intelligent vote chimes in.:1orglaugh

Hey! The litte bastard was spraying the sidewalks! Got it?

Some of us don't like people who litter and spray graffiti on our streets. Would it be ok for this guy to spray chalk all over your driveway?

He went to jail and deserves to stay there until he get some respect for the rest of the world.

I bet you wish Stalin was running for President this election.

no but if you lived in my area you would understand the amount of corruption and bullshit that we deal with. with our local police alone whether its cover ups or illegal searches or racial profiling my town is notorious for this type of shit .

when you see a guy thats trying to voice his opinion about such sensitive issues and he gets stopped before he gets a chance to even express himself it makes you wonder, how over impowered these deutchse bags can be i have nothing against the police i actually am taking the civil service test myself in september or october whenever they decide to give it.

they just take shit to the next level did they even read him his rights before handcuffing him? and did you see the chief or captain whatever the guy in the white shirt is pushing the journalist doesn't the press have special rights, where does he get off putting his hands on another individual the journalist did nothing wrong, and as you can see in the backround there is other journalists talking to the officers while he is pushing the one camera man.

Great news.

and when it rained it would have washed away if it was permanent than that would be another story but its not and the guy even showed the cops that listen to what he is saying lol he says look this is a spot we washed away blah blah

THIS IS LUDACRIS :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

i could care less i just think its fucked up enough arguing back to work lol

dear asshat, he's free to ride his bike up and down the street speaking his mind, there is no law allowing him to spary paint.

grow up.

PUNCTUATION!!

ok it wasn't spray paint asshat it was CHALK

they mentioned on c-span that some hoodlums on bikes were arrested for grafitti.

again child, just because the idiot says it, doesn't mean its so.

:thumbsup

As usual the laws are not supposed to apply to left wingers that's why Boston kept them in cages during the convention.

:Graucho

YES! :thumbsup

Btw, Bikes Against Bush is an interactive protest/performance occurring simultaneously online and on the streets of NYC during the 2004 Republican National Convention. Using a wireless Internet enabled bicycle outfitted with a custom-designed printing device, the Bikes Against Bush bicycle can print text messages sent from web users directly onto the streets of Manhattan in water-soluble chalk.

The thought police were out in full force.

yup, rounding up idiots.:1orglaugh

well not that i completely agree but it isnt fair to paint the town in messages, i mean protesting sign is one thing but painting the town in messages is another

Cleaver idea.

However still defacing public property. Even though it was possibly side walk chalk it is still a crime.

He knew that the cops would show up and he would be charged with a crime. If not he is pretty stupid.

weak, I hate quick time video's

Serves the bike rider/designer right. I don't know about the rest of you, but to me, the can the officer takes out and examines sure looks like a can of spray paint. Where do you get cans of "spray chalk?"

Had a great friend who was a cop and he used to always say that even if he gave his mom a ride home from the store in the back of his patrol car, she'd be cuffed. He'd say "No one gets into my patrol car without cuffs." I'd suspect they have their reasons for that attitude. They have no idea if that pansy assed idiot just hacked his granny's head off 30 minutes ago!

But, writing on a city street, without permission, is just asking to have your ass warmed by Cell Block Bubba. Only a fucking idiot would consider that, at this time, in that location.

dont have QT
