Warrants served for cheering at graduation

newtboysays...

*wtf
Was this public school graduation? If so, does the superintendent really have the authority to demand silence at a public function, and to issue summonses? That's news to me.

Needs a tube chop at 2:07.
What movie is that after the story?

Mordhaussays...

Yes, public HS. He didn't issue the summons, just called his cop buddies and had them cited for disturbing the peace. One of those nice charges that you kind of have to pay if you can't find a decent pro bono lawyer. Public Defender will just tell you to plead out and pay the fine.

I think the movie is some part of roots, not sure. I figured people would know that was the end of the clip.

That's pretty screwed up. Cops aren't supposed to issue a summons unless they saw the crime. He should have been forced to citizens arrest them, which would have to be done at the time, not weeks later. I think they'll win in court if it goes that far.
The public defender may tell you to plea out, but can't force you to. Just because they don't want the work doesn't mean they don't have to do it (by going to trial).
I also guessed roots, but I'm not sure either. I haven't seen it since the 70's.

Moving this video to Mordhaus's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.
