Well, 1A applies to everyone, even those that are detestable, like us

Serious question: Should we get Rack and his brother emotional support hamsters?

I agree it can go nowhere good. Can a barney Fife... "I was just following orders tarnish the entire LEO community?" YES This needs to stop.
I fully support the Law Enforcement Community for the difficult job they do. As for as I know the Maryland Capitol Police are nothing more than glorified mall cops.
I would hate to take my blue light out of its socket supporting LEO for their actions. Im sure im not the only that fears the stain they have made. It won't go away without action. With responsibility comes repercussions.
They chose a paycheck instead of the Constitution. Fear the wrath of honesty.

This is the typical non-apology “apology.” It’s like my saying I’m sorry for hurricane Katrina. Hell, everyone is sorry for hurricane Katrina. Being sorry for something is not the same thing as taking responsibility for it. While I am sorry for Katrina, I’m not responsible for Katrina.From Bryan's FB page

DGS Spox confirms charges to be dropped today.
Statement: "After a thorough review of all the evidence and supporting documentation, and after consulting with the Anne Arundel County States Attorney’s Office; the Maryland Capitol Police believes it is in the best interest of all parties involved not to pursue any criminal charges against Mr. Jeff Hulbert and Mr. Kevin Hulbert. Both defendants were charged on Monday, February 5, 2018. Today, MCP forwarded an official request to the states attorney’s office, asking that all the criminal charges in this case be dropped.
"The Maryland Capitol Police fully supports the 1st Amendment Rights of freedom of speech and the right to peacefully assemble. The department is committed to providing a safe environment for employees, visitors, and demonstrators that frequent state facilities, which is why the Maryland Capitol Police have the ability to determine times, locations, and venues in which these demonstrations may occur; particularly when it involves the safety of others. The Maryland Capitol Police work hard at facilitating an orderly environment that is safe and pleasant for all to express their 1st amendment rights.
The department will use this event to strengthen our community outreach training efforts and to further educate our officers and the general public, in order to clarify our "Demonstrating on Public Property" procedures so the policy is clear and understandable to the public for future demonstrations."
We got this. De Jonge v. OregonIf they can’t step up for us, we must be awful people. One might say “deplorable”..
Having represented thousands of people who have been arrested I know that for first timers being arrested and especially being cuffed is a lot worse than most people would imagine.
We will likely encourage attendees to forgo the trolly/shuttles and just hike in. It’s not that far a hike.
Indeed. Note that everyone here is against the wrongful use of firearms. We are not wating for a chance to use our guns to kill someone. Taking someones life is the last thing that anyone wants to do. The issue is, sometimes circumstances dictate that is the most prudent course of action.
Where we and the moms disagree is on what to do about criminal use of firearms. Criminals will always have guns, just like junkies will always be able to get heroin. So the question is, what will law abiding citizens have? All I'm asking for is an equal chance. I'll create my own safe space, thank you. People who seek concealed carry permits are among the most law abiding people there are. If you don't believe me, google "concealed carry permit holder vs police crime rate". It is an eye opener.
Lastly, let me point out that Maryland already has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the nation, yet Baltimore leads the nation in per capita homicides. Why? Some say it is because criminals get their guns from other states with lax laws. If guns are easy to get in other states why aren't the crimes committed there? The problem is that liberal politicians and judges in this state have worked to create a policy that amounts to catch and release. The man who murdered 3 people, I think it was last january, at a granite shop and then in Delaware, had been arrested 17 times for some pretty serious crimes, yet he was out on the streets. What Maryland needs is crime control, not gun control.

Like MCP, we are all sorry for the arrest of the Hulberts, but MCP needs to step up and say that WE ARE SORRY FOR WHAT WE DID; That we wrongfully arrested the Hulberts. They need to not only be sorry, but they need to acknowledge their responsibility for it.
Yes, doing so is to accept responsibility for the consequences as well, but that is what happens with a true apology, and not mere lip service. Step up, admit you error, take your lumps, learn from it, and don’t do it again.
Thanks to you and to Mark for stepping up on this.
Dexter Manley? So Sgt. Pope was drunk? ......
