We will be in full fash mode 2 years from now.
It'll be fun.

>You can't arrest me, I'm a journalist!
>muh freedom of press

I will defend this because more (((press))) means more (((protesters)))

Its just a giant (((circlekerk)))

This is an obama law

What were they charged with and what were the circumstances leading up to them being charged with this crime? Man of only the United States had some sort of system that asked those questions and judged whether or not a person committed a crime.

Even if they shot them and diched them I wouldn't care at all.

Having a iPhone in your hand doesn't make you a journalist.

So Trump wasn't even sworn in yet it's somehow his fault?

Nice job cutting the context out. Sensationalized like a true fake news reporter.

>oy vey they were just protesting goy

Probably some bullshit where they consider any antifa(g) with a cell phone cam or a blog a "journalist". Fake news.

>Journalists are above the law

...

They were profession journalists, one from Russia Today. Nice try though

...

Literally everybody is a journalist these days.

...

...

They were charged end masse. Everyone that was caught out was charged.

They will have their day at court, and at court if it is shown they weren't inciting or smashing shit they will be found not guilty.

Seriously, it isn't hard to understand. Charged != convicted

>masked antifa throws rocks at the police
>gets arrested
>pulls out his smartphone
>"YOU CAN'T ARREST ME! I'M PART OF THE MEDIA! LOOK AT ALL THESE PICTURES I TOOK FOR MY (((NEWSPAPER)))!"

none of our jurnos got arrested

Being a journalist doesn't make you immune to laws.

>mr. (((Nossel)))
Like pottery. There's no way these fags were taken in for "no reason" no matter what the (((times))) says.

why the fuck would you butcher that lee enfield you fucking monster

They broke the first rule of journalism the moment they decided to get involved in protest

>report the news, don't be the news

...

Hope they're hanged from a tree :^)

good I fucking hate journalists.

but the damage is being put through all that shit in the first place...if you are found innocent of ANY accused crime you should be recompensed in some way

addition...there was an ancient culture once that actually punished the accusers if those they accused was found to be innocent of any wrongdoing.

>the press are magically immune to the law

Why would I defend a rioting journalist

Tell me how he isnt hitler again

>Two journalists who were arrested while covering the unrest in Washington DC surrounding Donald Trump’s inauguration last Friday have been charged with felonies and could face up to 10 years in prison.

>The journalists, who were there on assignment, are both charged with the most serious level of offense under the District of Columbia’s law against rioting. They could also each be fined up to $25,000 if convicted.

>Evan Engel of Vocativ and Alex Rubinstein of RT America were arrested on Friday morning outside a school at 12th and L Streets in downtown Washington, according to police reports. They were released on Saturday following initial court appearances. Both had preliminary hearings scheduled for mid-February.

>Engel’s bosses on Monday issued a furious response to the action against their employee, who told them that he was swept up by officers despite repeatedly informing them that he was a journalist covering the unrest. Engel’s camera was seized by police.

>at least one of the journalists was a kike

because youd have to be completely fucking retarded and full blown idiot to think that the press is completely immune to all laws of the United States

Being a journalist doesn't make you immune from criminal behavior. This is obvious fake news propaganda that says nothing about why they were actually arrested and charged it just subtly tried to imply that it was simply because they were a journalist at an event that was protesting the president.

For fucks sake the asshole probably joined in an arson.

Calling it a protest doesn't make it legal.

Shoting on the 1st already.

Thats why you have to pick up arms.

What?

>get caught in the middle of a riot
>go to the police station
>take a statement, or not because 5th amendment
>they can't actually hauser hundreds of people so you get let go on an OR bond and a court date
>show up to court, found not guilty/DA dropped the charges

What is so bad about that? Seriously.

I doubt the RT America guy was helping out the protesters. So I don't know why he is arrested.

They're encouraging the riots by filming them, so they're complicit

We need a total shutdown of the press to maintain law and order in this country

Also, making false allegations is a crime.

Why do you make these grand assumptions? You are sounding stupid.

t. Police

It was a riot, wveerobe gets swept up to stop the violence and sorted later.

sounds staged as fuck.
dumb shits ain't no mlk no one gives a fuck about gotcha clown shit like this.
into the dustbin of history it goes.

>What is a free press

MLK understood of using the system in his favor, peaceful protest is perfectly okay and makes you look good

Violent protest is how you break the law

>free press means being above the law

They will have their day in court and if found to have done nothing wrong the charges will be dropped.

>what is breaking the law

SOMEONE GET THAT FUCKING HORSE TO STOP RUNNING AROUND

Yeah, everybody is a jerk off journalist these days.

oi m8 u aight u acting batty innit

Hitler didn't defend his position to the French when he rolled into Paris


>WE PRESIDENT NOW

>lawyers and 'medics'

>be antifa
>wear black mask and black helmet with red cross
>be nursing student
>be at riot soley to patch up violent rioters and riot myself
>WHAT YOU CAN'T ARREST ME!

Also saw the video where the 'legal observers' were arrested
They participated in rioting and acted as a human shield to protect rioters and only started screaming about being a 'lawyer' when the tear gas started flying

So if I decide to start a blog or a small college journal, then I start rioting, breaking shit, causing thousands of dollars of property damage, etc., I can just hide behind "free press"?

>Most Most of the 230 protesters arrested during Donald Trump’s inauguration on Friday will face charges of felony rioting, a crime which carries a maximum sentence of a decade in prison in Washington DC.

>The 217 alleged rioters – who could also be hit with $250,000 (£200,000) fines – appeared before Washington’s Superior Court throughout Sunday.

>One organiser tweeted a crowd of 2,500 – the “overwhelming majority communists” – were at the unauthorised demonstration, which targeted Starbucks, McDonald’s and Bank of America. Six police officers were lightly injured as riot police and green military people-carriers arrived on K Street, affluent home of Washington’s political lobbying industry, to secure the area.

There's a reason why all those other journalists who were covering the event weren't arrested.

They are kikes so they should do ten years and then be deported.

(((Goldstone)))
Every fucking time

Well… were they committing felonies?

AKTIVNYYE
MEROPRIYATIYA

Every damn time

abcnews.go.com/2020/slideshow?id=9477095&imageid=9485659

lol 2 life sentences in britain is 16 years.

Disgusting. It looks cool, but destroying a historical artifact like that is almost sacrilege

Wait, they're literally blaming him for shit that happened during his inauguration? Did he slip the order for an immediate fascist crackdown on journalists to Justice Roberts after he took the oath?

Why do you hate freedom so much? If you think Mosin-Fagants are so great, how about you buy them all? Oh right, you're poor and a loser.

Do you realize how many tens of millions of those rifles were produced? Taking out a few here and there is no problem. It's not like it's something rare.

>Norway calling people losers

Pls leave or I will tell your nanny government you were on an intolerant website :^)

Yes I do realise that, as I realise Kek clearly disagrees with me. Apologies, shoot hand rifles all you want

the whole 10 year thing was passed by Obama to stop the occupy shit

this is hilarious

Fuck off hippy.

If I'm ever getting arrested, I'll be sure to tell the cop I'm a documentarian and a journalist because I have a youtube page.

Gotcha.

Der Lügenpresse spreading false news. Nothing of value was lost.

"journalists"

If you are rioting helping rioters encouraging rioting
YOU'RE A FUCKING RIOTER

>Get arrested for something completely unrelated to your Journalism
>Muh freedom of press

Do journalists have immunity from all charges now?

Neat, I was right there in that news article picture.

If they broke a felony law then they get felony charges

Do these numbnuts think that the government is just handing out mysterious and vague "felony charges" to journalists like fucking candy? Hell no, tell me what theyre fucking charged for. And then tell me how these charges arent applicable?

If they werent charged for something specific, and told what for, and if these charges werent legit the headline would read

"Journalists Arrested at Inauguration Protest Sue the United States for Violating the Constitution"

Considering thats not what it reads we can safely assume these fuckwads broke the fucking law. No need to worry about press freedom whatsoever.

Jesus Christ get a screen clipping app you retard

This, 100%. The law applies equally. No special privileges for the commissars.

Google and Facebook have both announced they will actively filter out "fake News"
THIS is a threat to the free press

Not rioters claiming to be journalists getting arrested

Trump didn't have anything to do with this, it was the DC police and government you stupid Hungarian piece of shit.

Take care of your shithole first.

Being a journalist doesn't make you immune from the law.

Federal agents to arrest CNN on air when?

>(((Journalists))) play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
>B-but muh free press!
