Yup, that's what the police officer said. (skip to 1:20)

WTF
I am not even sure what I saw.
Was it a bunch of cops on a power rave? Or something else?

A guy called dvorak is tired. Tired of humanity not wanting to change to improve itself. Quite the sad tale.

I feel so safe, knowing that all the other crime in Washington DC has been eliminated.

"You're not allowed free speech in the Jefferson memorial?"

I'm speechless with hate.

Edit: Oh, it looks like they're just enforcing some stupid judge's idea of a law, not using their own judgment on a nebulous issue. Less cop corruption and more durhur lawmaking, here. After the wood whittler incident I had my hackles raised against law enforcement, I'll admit.

Furthermore, I think Guantanamo must be destroyed.

Sounds like a mix of a dumb law and an asshole cop twisting it in his direction.

Dont worry guys, I dont think this is the start of the government takeover of everything. [lol]

Of course not, it started a long time ago, back when the government forced everybody to help build the tower of Babel.

Wasn't Babel some sort of super demon thingy?

Anyway, my reaction to this is the facepalmkyon.jpg macro. Beyond, I don't have much to other than the officers were being idiots.

College douchebags protesting a meaningless, insignificant law by publicly breaking it arrested by people who never finished college and hate their lives: news at 11.

Why is there a law baning dancing in the Jerfferson Memorial in the first place? Seems oddly specific.

Probably falls under disturbing the public peace. It is a memorial after all.

To disturb the public peace and be douche bags?

Trolls gonna troll (and be hit with the consequences quite hard apparently).

To appease the fallen spirits?

That said, is there any peace to preserve in the first place? It's not like people are dying because a couple of guys started dancing.

It's really obnoxious, though.

An entire city full of parks, and you want to dance there?

Except for 4/1/2011. That day lingers in my memory like...metaphor here...I should go.

Signed, it's a memorial. That's like the same as doing this sort of thing at a funeral. It's great if people actually want you to do it but otherwise you're stepping all over a solemn moment of remembrance of someone (or in this case, many people) who died.

"You're not allowed Free Speech at the Jefferson Memorial" is a MUCH greater affront to his memory than anything a buncha dudes might do without actually harming people.

Yes, a one off statement made in the heat of action by a single non-representative police officer who the major of the nation is going to consider a dick for saying such a thing is anymore of an affront that several college trolls.

Neither side is right by the way.

That cop should be publicly shamed and ostracized, his picture in all media. When someone says stuff like that, they should Never Live It Down.

(he should be fired, too)
