First Amendment Meets Large Stick
Philosophy from a police officer who watched Celtics fans celebrate Boston's NBA Championship yesterday:
Disorderly, drunken “celebrations” in the middle of public streets - otherwise known as riots - are not good times to have discussions of civil rights or the First Amendment with the police officer holding a large stick.
That's particularly true when the stick-wielding officer views drunken revelry as a riot.
