      <![CDATA[Ironically you would probably be arrested if you walked around brandishing a rifle in a threatening manner, but if you have a permit you can carry one around and you can carry a concealed weapon almost anywhere in this state. You wouldn't be arrested until you pullled it out and shot some unsuspecting citizen who happened to be demonstrating the immoral distribution of wealth this country has migrated to since the wealthy bought our government.

      <![CDATA[“The privilege of a citizen of the United States to use the streets and parks for communication of views on national questions may be regulated in the interest of all; it is not absolute, but relative, and must be exercised in subordination to the general comfort and convenience, and in consonance with peace and good order; but it must not, in the guise of regulation, be abridged or denied.<br>
 Supreme Court decision  Hague v. CIO, 307 U.S. 496 (1939); <br>
  We, as citzens do have a right to assemble as you pointed out...however as this as been reviewed several times thru the republic's history by the Supreme Court. You do have to obey the laws of local jurisdictions and the police.

      <![CDATA[The Constitution says: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."<br>
<br>
Sorry - but that trumps "police order to leave" - "Police order to leave" sounds a lot like what happens in Dictatorships, Socialist or Communist countries - not FREEDOM loving countries. Looks to me like what really happened here was these kids' Constitutional rights were violated.

      <![CDATA[Any municipality that has seen what has happened in various cities when the occupy group camps overnight would be letting down their tax paying citizens if they allow such "protesting". They do have a right to assemble but it also should go thru local regulations and laws.

      <![CDATA[I think it is amazing that these people are willing to assemble peacefully for what they believe in. In major cities like New York, Oakland, Philadelphia and Tampa thousands of people gather everyday and stand in solidarity fighting everything from the economic injustice of our country to healthcare to gay marriage to the unemployment rate and so on.
