Tossed in jail for youtube video
Andre Moore isn’t exactly a brain-surgeon, he’s pretty much a fucking moron, he was tossed in jail after he posted a youtube video that allegedly incited violence against the police in Filthydelphia. One of the charges, aggravated assault. What the fuck? Let’s take a step back here.
Andre is/was a security officer at a medical center in Philly, and evidently had a beef with the Philly police. As an outlet of his obvious red-hot frustration, he posted a hate filled video that promoted violence against the cops. A quote from the video (click here for full article):
When you shoot the cops, you shoot them dead
I’m not sure that qualifies as aggrataved assault. Here is wikipedia’s definition of aggravated assault:
- attempts to cause serious bodily injury to another person; or
- causes such injury purposely, knowingly, or recklessly in circumstances where the person has exhibited indifference to human life; or
- attempts or causes bodily injury to another person with a deadly weapon.
In another stroke of moronic genius, Andre the fucktard had his 12 year old son film the video. So slap on a corruption of minors charge.
My problem with this is obviously a free speech issue. Is Andre a despicable person? You bet. Are his rants and rages protected speech? Hell yes. If we allow our government to decide the line between protected and unprotected speech, then we are on a very steep and very slippery slope with a bunch of bible-beating book burners waiting for us at the bottom.
I wonder, should they have arrested Ice Cube, Easy-E, and Dr. Dre for “fuck tha police”?
Ice Cube will swarm
On any muthafucka in a blue uniform
Just cuz I’m from the CPT, punk police are afraid of me
A young nigga on a warpath
And when I’m finished, it’s gonna be a bloodbath
Of cops, dyin in LA
That shit is protected too, and fucking NWA rules.
Later bitches…
