They could always go the popular fascist thug route and charge him with resisting arrest, or even assaulting an officer hand with his fist when said officer punches him.
I am still waiting for someone to ask the president if he felt good about leaking info for personal political gain about who killed Osama. That then got said team of 40 odd people killed off.
its not a crime if those in power do it, because they have the military might to back up their lies and crimes.
save when they are carpet bombing civilians and calling them terrorists because any male in the bomb zone must be a terrorist to avoid it being a war crime.
I have seen more often than not just go along with the illegality of the governments actions simply because the government says they have to do unlawful things because national security.
very rarely do the courts press them for actual info other than "oh its national security do what you want then"
I honestly cannot wait to see if people are going to do anything about their country sliding headlong into a dictatorship.
We talk an awful lot and some of us protest, but do we really do anything about this. Generally those that protest get arrested and treated like terrorists for having the audacity to show dissent for their overlords.
Does it have to take having your 2nd amendment rights taken away for people to do something. Armed revolution will cause massive deaths and property damage, but if the alternative is to patiently wait for your remaining rights to be outlawed in the name of fighting a artificial war that never ends.
How long before you wake up one night to the sound of a SWAT team kicking down your door because you said something those in charge did not like. You and your family carted off to a prison without trial because those in charge said you were terrorists and terrorists have no rights.
Considering much of that is already happening is it really a stretch to suggest it will become widespread and used against those that speak out against their government instead of just those that protest against their government?
