14th Amendment of the Constitution of The United States of America: Section. 1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.
One of our neighbors rang my door bell Thurs. night. He was scheduled to help me with a job Friday morning. But he had to cancel and go to court. Three people had been rounded up in Clark Park, cuffed, and taken to 55th and Pine. Earlier the same day, a friend told me that others had recently been arrested as the volleyball players watched. All of these local residents were sitting peacefully drinking a downscale beer! When my helper offered to dump out the beer to avoid arrest, the cops told him, "there are people around here with a lot of money and power." Then they cuffed him. Many of you will remember the UCD regional marketing campaign encouraging suburban folks to bring wine to Clark Park for the orchestra. Here is one example: http://phillyist.com/2007/07/20/get_classic_in.php In addition to a hefty fine, my helper will need to wear the orange jumpsuit and work for the very same UCD under the threat of an arrest warrant if he refuses. (UCD was previously caught using these probationers for election work in violation of federal law.) Our neighbor described the humiliation of being arrested, cuffed, and taken away in front of neighbors and friends in the community in which he has lived for 20 years! Think of the next humiliation, over two days, as he works in the chain gang in front of us in his orange suit! ( My helper and the other guy walked the third victim home because he was traumatized and having serious anxiety trouble as a result of the events. Thank God for honorable downscale citizens!) Think of this! UCD advertises around the entire region that wealthy suburbanites are encouraged to bring upscale wine to Clark Park. (Many of us attended the orchestra and watched the wine flowing freely. We watch students regularly bring wine and houkas with their picnics in Clark Park.) But our hard working neighbors are traumatized, fleeced, and then forced to work in the chain gang for the very same UCD, or face jail. In the same jurisdiction, middle and lower class citizens are now arrested and enslaved for the same privileges enjoyed by the wealthy and powerful. UCD and these good people with money and power piss on the US Constitution. The poor and middle class are no longer considered US citizens. They have been criminalized. Here is what Asians face: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091025/ap_on_re_us/us_police_beating_video Waiting for my orange suit, Glenn ---- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to the list named "UnivCity."
