Video showing arrest of ABC producer
Democratic National Convention coverage
Denver police and Boulder County deputies can be seen bullying ABC producer Asa Eslocker by shoving him into the street and accusing him of impeding traffic, then choking him and handcuffing him. All for having committing the crime of standing on a public sidewalk.
StephenLoneWolf, who posted the video on Youtube, summed it up best when he asked:
“if this is the way the Denver PD and SD officers treat a MEMBER OF THE PRESS, with his press pass hanging in his neck, in the presence of a FULL CAMERA CREW, with camera rolling, how do you suppose they would treat you, or me, in a dark alley, in the middle of the night??”

Eslocker was released today on $500 bail.
A police official later told lawyers for ABC News that Eslocker is being charged with trespass, interference, and failure to follow a lawful order. He also said the arrest followed a signed complaint from the Brown Palace Hotel.

Oh wow ok first I just have to comment on the fact that cop actually said, “Your under arrest, buster” Classic. But the police are obviously in the wrong here on so many counts that I’m not going to list them.
Check this incident out from the visit of then-U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzalez to Spokane on June 27, 2007. A week later the Spokane Police arrested 17 youth in Spokane’s Riverfront Park at a 4th of July Independence Day event.

The incidence of suppression of constitutional rights in the U.S. is growing. Most U.S. police forces have been and/or can be commandeered at a moments notice by FBI Joint Terrorism Taskforces of which there are nearly 50 in the U.S. Some cities, such as Portland, have opted out of these arrangements understanding what participation means, i.e., the loss of control over their police and the subjecting of them to federal control by abusive FBI taskforces.
Disgusting.
Monetary damages are going to be the only way police will learn.
