MrSmartGuy 12/16/11 1:27:00 PM #2:	There was a law that started literally that day that prohibited dancing at the Jefferson Memorial. It was the result of a flashmob that some lady started there, that ended up disturbing the peace, and they had to arrest her. So basically they outlawed it there, to keep dumb ** like that happening there. So basically, these people felt it was a fantastic idea to get a bunch of them together, on the one day that the police would be there to stop protests of that nature, and start breaking the law that just came into effect that day. If that's the video I think it is (just clicked on it to see the name of it), what you see is AFTER the police gave everyone multiple warnings to clear the area. -- Xbox GT/PSN name: TatteredUniform - SSBB FC: 1891-0831-5747 (TEETS) http://card.mygamercard.net/nxe/TatteredUniform.png <cite>MrSmartGuy posted [p:562414] in So It seem...

Actually, choosing not to enforce a law happens pretty regularly, both in positive and negative ways. Positive: the Egyptian military refused orders to shoot civilians during the Egypt protests. Negative: sodomy laws in the USA, which prohibit any kind of sex that doesn't result in babies (so blowjobs, anal, etc) were almost never used against heterosexual couples, and almost exclusively used to arrest people for being gay.

It was the result of a flashmob that some lady started there, that ended up disturbing the peace, and they had to arrest her. So basically they outlawed it there, to keep dumb ** like that happening there.So basically, these people felt it was a fantastic idea to get a bunch of them together, on the one day that the police would be there to stop protests of that nature, and start breaking the law that just came into effect that day. If that's the video I think it is (just clicked on it to see the name of it), what you see is AFTER the police gave everyone multiple warnings to clear the area.Why did this not just /topic? -- http://us.battle.net/wow/en/character/black-dragonflight/Arbearday/advancedCurrent YGO Build: Trollkeepers </quote> ...

Panthera 12/16/11 6:29:00 PM #45:	From: UltimaterializerX \| #015 "The police are obligated to enforce all laws" is no excuse for enforcing immoral laws. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_Trials The problem is that there is simply no way to realistically not have this problem. There are obviously immoral laws that can exist, sure, but you can't draw the line because you're accepting that there is no line - the police are free to act according to their own conscience. Just a few examples of how that becomes problematic: speeding tickets are now even more of a cluster**** than they already are as every cop has free reign to choose what speed they think should be cracked down on, rape can be ignored by cops who think "she was asking for it" was valid, and so on. You might think one or both is immoral, but if you're leaving the enforcement of laws up to the individual officer, you guarantee these situations. You may say the way out is to not leave it up to each officer but instead up to some supposedly worked out standard...but tada, that's what the law is supposed to be, and if we can't make the legal system perfect as is, how are we going to agree on a backup to the legal system without it being every bit as messed up? -- Mistake you're making - overlooking the fact that we might not want to be saved. <cite>Panthera posted [p:562457] in So It seem...

These cops should risk the ire of their boss just so a bunch of confrontational jackasses can get out of an arrest and a $50 fine or whatever? Not worth it. -- http://img.imgcake.com/fitgirljpgta.jpg <cite>EndOfDiscOne posted [p:562458] in So It seem...
