PART 1: WeAreChangeLA 4-11-08 freeway blogging Added: April 15, 2008 We reached out to hundreds of rush hour drivers with our beautiful brand new banner (5' x 21' CHECK IT OUT!!), until the CHP showed up an hour into our truth action. The CHP officer violated our First Amendment rights by insisting that we leave the bridge. We reluctantly complied, but that's not the end of the story... Stay tuned for what happens next in PART 2!
Poster Comment: Cop keeps telling the cameraman 'put the camera down', and when asked what law forbids them from holding signs, he tells the sign holders they will be charged with PC 148 if they don't comply, completely bogus: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/pubs/vctop/appndxa/penalco/penco148.htm Penal Code Resisting, Delaying, or Obstructing Officer 148. (a) (1) Every person who willfully resists, delays, or obstructs any public officer, peace officer, or an emergency medical technician, as defined in Division 2.5 (commencing with Section 1797) of the Health and Safety Code, in the discharge or attempt to discharge any duty of his or her office or employment, when no other punishment is prescribed, shall be punished by a fine not exceeding one thousand dollars ($1,000), or by imprisonment in a county jail not to exceed one year, or by both that fine and imprisonment

Their hearts were in the right place, but the banner wasn't. imo it is not a good idea to distract drivers. People have a hard enough time as it is, just keeping it between the ditches. No point making it even more risky. If I had been a cop, that is what I would have told them. But they seem to prefer being unreasonable and, in general, dicks.

If it's lives you want to save and Freakin signs we can't wave or is it truth that suffers here sorry officer kiss my rear we got rights and we insist since 9-11 we been pissed so lock me up and keep the key be sure to state your authority and when I'm free to sue you knaves you'll understand ... "BURMA SHAVES"
That's a BS excuse. billboards are 10 times bigger than the sign. its not cops jobs to prevent 'potential' hypothetical scenarios. do you agree with banning cell phones while driving like CA has done? No evidence they cause accidents either, just emotionalism nanny-state attitudes. the cop never did answer what specific law forbade them from holding a sign. the law he cited is bogus.
Do not cops standing on bridges with radar guns (wolf packs) and billboards distract drivers. Not a good argument IMO.
