This one leaves me speechless. Police in Jackson, MS, at least 4 of them, stand and watch as right in front of them some guy removes a number of ProLife signs and puts them in a storage facility next to his business. The cops do nothing despite ProLifer complaints. It's quite obvious the cops are under orders not to act.
"On Thursday July 17, 2014, Created Equal visited Jackson, MS, site of the state's last remaining abortion facility as part of Day 4 of our Summer Justice Ride. Upon arrival, and despite several attempts by Created Equal's Mark Harrington to convince police to intervene, our property was stolen while police stood idly by...
Unfortunately, Jackson has a reputation that precedes itself. The Jackson Police Department has a long history of harassment against and targeting of pro-life advocates. In 2006, Pro-Life Mississippi and some of its members sued several police officers for their pattern of violating the rights of pro-life speakers.
In, 2008, the City signed a consent decree, agreeing that they would no longer interfere with the free speech rights of these advocates, and also agreeing to mandatory annual training for police officers in respect for the First Amendment rights of all speakers.
However, as soon as the Court's jurisdiction over the decree expired, Jackson police resumed their pattern of singling out pro-life speakers for harassment and false arrests. Pro-life advocates in Jackson are preparing to sue the City for its violation of their civil rights."
MS was one of the hotspots during the civil rights movement and received unending negative attention for its race relations and police conduct (Mississippi Burning). Do you think this incident involving civil rights and the police will receive the same kind of national attention?
