They really buried the details in this article. The opener leads you to believe she did nothing wrong because she briefly spoke during a public comment period> Mia Heider had never attended a public meeting before when she showed up to the city council meeting in Springfield, Missouri. After briefly speaking at a podium during a public comment…

I know this was a billion news cycles ago but does anyone remember the CPAC “we are all domestic terrorists”? So turns out that was a reaction to a local council meeting where conservatives followed a woman to her house and harassed her after the meeting. The government intervened and said, technically, this is intimidating a person over their…

This article is terrible. The story is already pretty good (for the anti-flock side), with the the mayor/council was for shutting down debate on flock. The author didn't need to devolve into ragebait territory, obfuscating what happened by jumping forwards and backwards in time between paragraphs.Here's a concise, non-ragebait, chronological…

sadly, very few people pay any attention to these kinds of elections. The turnout is super low and you basically are just looking at a ballot with the 'red candidate' and the 'blue candidate'. The certainly didn't pay any attention to the primary even if there was one (often like one person from each party might run and then a bunch of…

Back in the 90s, when I wore a younger man's clothes, I got a 'disturbing the peace' citation from the Modesto Police Department, the world's finest law enforcement agency (major sarcasm; they're horrible). Two cop cars were parked side-by-side, drivers chatting, blocking the only exit from a parking lot. I gave a little toot of the horn in my '87…

Article: city council purposefully cancels the public comment segment of an extremely divisive issue that people came to protest, arrests two people, cop makes clearly sadistic comment, the direct will of the people is beaten into submission by using the powers of the council to derail any possible opposing words or actionsComment thread: but what…

>The cop said, “You’re under arrest,” grabbed her arms, and pulled her out of the room. “I can do this all night. I get paid by the hour,” the cop added.Two sentences showing precisely why no one can trust the police. Not only are they completely unaccountable, but they will trample your first amendment rights and do so with smug amusement in full…

Yeah because addressing the city council with your middle fingers extended is totally mature and appropriate of adults.For a place full of hall monitors obsessed with decorum and commenting rules, it sure seems flexible at times.Would be nice if 404 showed the entire unedited video, as opposed to non-linear clips full of jump cuts, but that might…

I don't even get what the comment has to do with anything. Is it supposed to be some kind of zinger? It's a great idea. Make him spend all night arresting people.

As an european guy. Interesting to see things happen from far away. Knowing that crazy country has so much power, makes the near future of the whole world even more scary.

An attendee interrupted the discussion on the law being passed, flipped off the council, and refused to leave.How is that First Amendment rights?

Wow the bedroom anarchists are out in full force today. Don't forget to hit that flag button fellas!
