Proof, cops will follow any order

Watching cops at Notre Dame roughing up an 80 year old Catholic Priest for saying the Rosary at Notre Dame.
But, I guess they were just following orders. This scares me more then the gun grabbers.

The officer behind him was supporting him with his legs so he would have something to lean on. Oh yeh, priests are not immune to arrest.

He was arrested for unlawful assembly, NOT for saying the Rosary.
Where was he 'roughed up?' In fact, when he 'collapsed' no police officer was even touching him and a police officer was first to come to his aid and support him from his fall.
Note to OP:
When you post something misleading, check first for the video that may show it!

I will say that they did show extraordinary care with him by taking him out on a stretcher. Most times protesters are simply drug away by their hair.
The only thing I saw wrong with it was them cuffing him behind his back. That's uncalled for. He posed no threat to anyone.

I think that is policy, everyone gets cuffed behind their backs. Smart safe and fair IMO

Proof of what? The only thing proved here is that you are a liar, and will say anything to support your agenda. Go away, we don't need your crap here.

Oh come on... Really?
It's uncomfortable, and unnecessary.
See, that's what's wrong with LE. Policy is policy and any deviation from that makes you as bad as a normal citizen who should be tazered for farting.

The reason it is policy is in the past some cops saw it was uncalled for and unnecessary so didn't do it, and died for their kindness.
Everyone has to be treated the same.
Plain old common sense isn't allowed when walking around in lawyer-land.

...The only time I've been cuffed and transported, I was friendly and
cooperative to the last degree. They cuffed me in front, and I rode
in the front seat of the squad car. I think the cops' intuition
was spot on. They knew I was not a threat. These cops didn't know me
from Adam, but could tell that I was a friendly drunk.
...'Course that was about 25 years ago. I'll bet policy has changed.

Buh bye!
I just think it was pretty evident that most of the police thought that what they were doing was wrong. I only say this by the look on their faces so I could be wrong. Thing is, if you think what you are dong is wrong, why wouldnt you stop it?
Not necessarily true. I've had to arrest people before and because of their age and/or medical condition handled them carefully to keep from injuring them.

This is the exact point I was trying to make. If the new breed of cop were told to go out on the streets annd shoot every white kid wearing a green shirt, you can bet that many of them would follow orders.
Support of the second amendment demands support of the other 9. In my opinion. Freedom of Assembly means just that. You will counter stating that Notre Dame is a private school. I would counter by saing that they take Pell Grant money from students.

Wow...just a little bitter at something? A couple of recommendations that hear help old timers like you...Prune Juice and Preperation H. My Grandfather used to swear by it. Might improve your crappy attitude...if that does not work, maybe Midol would work. Helps my wife.
Shall I watch the video, or drop the issue now?
I didn't see the video of the incident, so I can't comment on it. What I can comment on, is that of those who saw the video, without exception, said your reporting of it was innacurate.

<shrug> Free country. 1st amendment and all.
Your OP was Intentionally Misleading.
What's illegal about assembling?
I can't believe all those who support punk thugs who, like the OP states, will follow any order given and as such nothing they say or do can be attributed to them.
You say there are good ones, really? If they do something
"good" they are just doing what they are told. What's so good about that?
You sound like the sheep that will give up their guns at the first order.
And, when that order is issued these simple punks will be the ones that come for you and your guns.
Why do the best sheep always think they will be spared from the slaughter? After all, they've been such good sheep, right?
There's nothing worse than a gutless gun owner. Gun grabbing liberals are more dangerous than you.
Unlawful assembly?

The only thing I saw wrong with it was them cuffing him behind his back. That's uncalled for. He posed no threat to anyone.
Every police agency I know of here in So Cal has dept policy that requires handcuffing "every" arrestee behind the back. It does not matter how nice of a person they are. The police academy where I teach also teaches that method.

Yeah...those violent 80 year old priests need it. Course, from what I have seen from the doughnut eating crowd, he may be.

When people block sidewalks, doorways, building entrances etc for purposes of demonstrations it can be and usually is deemed to be an unlawful assembly. If you dont like it, tough, thats the law.
The demonstrators are then advised that their presense constitutes an "unlawful assembly". They are given the opportunity to leave and if they choose to stay they get arrested. Agencies routinely video these incidents for presentation in court.
Thats how assembling can be illegal.

Looks like you may have a comprehension problem. Age, disposition and line of work have nothing to do with whether or not you get cuffed during an arrest. What part of "everyone arrested gets cuffed behind the back" dont you understand?
Doughnut jokes are so original.... come on, you can do better than that.
