SarcActivist

I have been involved with activism for several years and have tried many different approaches. I feel I have had the most success with the over-the-top sarcasm. My goal was to be interviewed and use it as an opportunity make a mockery of our local governments claim to arbitrarily enforce unjust laws. I was actually threatened with arrest not long after this interview was recorded for approaching the cops and informing them that I saw women trying to vote and African Americans using the caucasian only restrooms in the park. I will be attending the next feeding on Wednesday the 13th at 5:30pm at Lake Eola Park. A few months ago, Officer Travis Lamont of the OPD broke the neck of an 84 year old WW2 veteran so we had a protest in front of the police station. Naturally I stationed myself across the street with a sign that read "Lamont for Sheriff" and pretty much did the same thing.

That is a difficult question but you could also point to the historical use of police enforcing Jim Crow Laws, The Fugitive Slave Laws, ect.

Unfortunately, the police have the luxury of operating as a monopoly. They have no accountability because those that pay for their services are forced to pay for them. If I am not happy with the services provided by OPD I am not free to stop paying for their services and employ another department. When entities are not forced to compete for your tax dollars they have little, if any, incentive to adequately perform their duties. In this instance those duties would include protecting your life, liberty and property. Good question though!

I don't want to give away too many details but a "Free Doughnuts" event at the Orlando Police Department (which falls within the 2 mile radius of this specific ordinance) may or may not be in the planning process.

No worries...just pay it forward!

It's for real. I grew up in Kentucky.
