Their insistence to charge these pranksters is nothing more than an attempt to suppress acts of free speech from ordinary citizens.

only an absolute flogger would defend these wannabe terrorists..

I hope they get whats coming to the smart assed greasy flogs...

You don't even understand the subject so please just go back to sleeping it off.

Maybe the cops could use these guys as part of their terrorist training exercises?

Maybe the cops should spend their resources doing things that matter? I'm still waiting for them to process fingerprints from when my house was robbed. It's only been 2 years.

the cops obviously know about you already and hence their no show...

what would you have that anyone would want?

your filthy crack pipe?

To what extent was it staged? Are we talking a movie set here?

If you are waving a gun around in an apparent committal of a crime, and point it at a police officer who stumbles across your idiocy, you are going to get shot. If a member of the public thinks you are committing a serious crime and takes the opportunity to hit you on the head with the nearest heavy object, you won't get much sympathy.

Really? So now the only way to express oneself is to go and take out a council permit to close down a street and declare a movie set? How about we look as reason here. The kids put together a YouTube video. They had actors. They did it in obvious quiet areas.

That's it, that's all there is to it. Cops are being overZealous as always.

I admit I haven't seen a lot of random pedestrians in the videos. But if you only have one cameraman, and a cop or concerned citizen can't see that it is staged, things could go bad very quickly. The 'making of' videos I have (briefly) seen do not show any effort to prevent this.

It's like any prank out there. In fact others are worse for actually using unaware participants. There is no damage to public property and there is no showing of public indecency or nuisance. The cops should've treated it as nothing more then a misunderstanding. Instead, perhaps to save face, but more likely to warn others of doing similar videos, the cops are proceeding to punish people for expressing their art. It's like we are living in putin Russia.

It is not at all like any prank out there. Very few pranks would inspire a cop to pull his gun, or a concerned citizen to hit someone over the head with a table.

Nor are they being charged with indecency or destruction of property. It seems to me that your problem is you still don't realise what the issue is here.

Absolutely right.

It wouldn't surprise me that you're a beneficiary of our lacking forensic resources.

Just like a fake triple 0. Throw the book at the wenkers

It is freedom of speech because it is artistic expression.

is piddling up a lamppost in broad daylight also artistic? I wonder! Roll Eyes

seems to me we can all put handles like that on anything we do...

society is all about drawing lines in the sand...

so if someone decided they wanted to go down your street throwing flour bombs from their car over yours and every car in the street...

that would be OK because its all about freedom of speech.. Angry

Arabs never grow out of the smartass teenager phase, they just get fatter and smellier.

Were the flour bombs done as part of a filming? We're participants made aware and consent sought? Was damage covered?

You seem to misunderstand the entire topic cods.

I hope to never grow out of being a smartass. As for fatter and smellier I think you're referring to married men in general.

Actually quite a few studies show smartasses are better people in general. If I were to use anecdotal evidence, compare me with the mechanic. I'm a smartass. He isn't. The mechanic is obviously a loser in life. And so far I've done reasonably okay in life. Without bursting my own bubble, of course.

Probably married men in general. But if it's 60% of men, 75% of married men, it's 98% of arabs.

We don't want them.

If it's 98% arabs it's also 98% aussies, surely. We get fatter and stinkier from 30 onwards.
