Most people carry a little of each, don’t they?

With DNC in mind, city bans carrying urine, feces
Poo and pee dominated a public hearing Monday on a new law that prohibits people from carrying certain items if they intend to use them for nefarious purposes.
What other purpose might there be for carrying these “products”? I’d say monger away. This is a law whose time has come!
Representatives from some of the groups planning large-scale protests during the DNC this month said the ordinance was unnecessary and accused city officials of fear mongering.
No Pun intended?
“The intent of this ordinance is to try to smear protesters and make them look as if they are somehow criminal or somehow going to engage in some kind of gross conduct,” said Glenn Spagnuolo, an organizer with the Re- create 68 Alliance.
The ordinance makes it illegal to carry certain items, such as chains, padlocks, carabiners and other locking devices. It also prohibits the possession of noxious substances. Two of the most frequently used examples of a noxious substance are a bucket of urine and a “feces bomb.”
Police have to prove that people carrying such items intend to use them to block public access or emergency equipment or to thwart crowd control measures.
“Our intent for this bill is not about suppressing or chilling First Amendment rights,” he said.
“Young man!”
“Yes Officer?
” Just exactly what do you intend to do with that shit?”
“Exercise my first ammendment rights?”
“Put down the poop son. Before I get pissed!”

Just more government interference in our lives, huh? 😉
In Minneapolis a cop would get called into a hearing just for using the word “shit.”

‘recreate 68’ don’t want anyone to think they are calling for riots.

Glenn Spagnuolo says the ordinance is intended to make his group “look as if they are somehow criminal”. It’s name “Recreate ’68 infers incitement to riot. I would ask how stupid these people really are, but that in itself is a silly question.
