Alex Jones manhandled and arrested on trumped-up charges by NYPD!
2007-09-09 11:33:25
Last night in New York City, a big monster cop raced into a crowd of demonstrators during an early street action for the 9/11 anniversary, specifically singling out documentary filmmaker and popular talk show host, Alex Jones, and handcuffed him with extreme prejudice and excessive grunting, nearly chopping the media activist's hands off.
The entire incident was broadcast on the Times Square "Jumbotron," which happened to be displaying a Fox News segment covering the arrest hosted by mustachioed anchor man and consummate slimeball, Heraldo Rivera, who chortled and mocked the protesters, while the NYPD flagrantly violated their First Amendment rights to free speech and peaceable assembly.
