Indiana
My friend was arrested a couple weeks ago but released the next day. He was arrested for carrying a article. I was with him when this happened, he was doing nothing wrong at the time but for some reason a cop came up to him asked him to put his hands on his car and searched him. He found nothing but the article, then arrested him. The cop didnt give a cause for what he was doing.
Heres what the article said, not sure if you need to know this or not but I figure I might as well post it
What is the Totality?
It is the high resues of hazardous and potentially lethal chemicals inside your fat cells. It is you sitting inside and turning on the television or computer on a beautiful day. It is you shopping when you are depressed. It is the feeling you get that somthing is missing. It is your worries that fire may destroy all of your possessions and you plans to try and take them with you. It is the thought that tells you to go on a diet. It is the excess fat on your body. It is the headache that wont go away. It is the bleeding in your intestines from years of pain alleviating drug use. It is the birth defects of your children. It is your killer when you die from a car accident. It is your syndrome. It is your tumor. It is your expensive coffin and burial clothing. It is the drugs you take when you need an escape. It is the bulldozer that destroyed the woods you might have known so well. It is the towering skyscraper that makes you feel forever tiny and powerless. It is your boss. It is minimum wage, it is maximum wage.
It is your poison, sometimes with bars, sometimes without. It is all your fears. it is what is keeping you up at night. It is the lock on your door. It is the bullet in your gun. it is your noose and your tie. It is that thing that you dont want to do, but you feel you have to. It is the turned cheek. It is the cold shoulder. it is the ad that tells you the internet will proviede affection for you. It is the new appliance that you never knew existed, but you cant live without. It is poverty. It is inequality. It is the sink or swim economy. It is the thing that has categorized you. It has stopped you from doing the things you want. It is what makes you jealous. It is your hate. It is your love. It is your purgatives that you feel might be somewhat strange. It is your clenched fist. It is your mace spray.
It is the police. It is the nightstick. It is the protester and the media which tells you not to listen to them. It is the corporation which creates a new truth for you daily, one which provides you with the knowledge to buy what they make with confidence. It is the gold star you earned in kindergarten. It is the A you got in high school. It is your college degree. It is your paycheck. It is your therapist. It is your bill from the medicine you bought to "fix you brain". It is the ache in your back. it is your swollen knees. It is your worsening eyesight from the incandescent glow of our institutions. It is your hearing loss. It is "white nose" that drives you crazy. It is your adrenaline. It is the tears that pour down you face after a sad movie. It is your longing for a dramatic romance with a happy ending. It is your lust for sex. It is the objectified women, and the powerless man. It is the rapist. It is the murderer. It is the thief. It is the profiteer. It is the worker. It is the dead union organizer.
It is the solider that is willing to kill and die for cheaper oil. It is the victims of a government enflamed over unwillingness to follow their way of life. It is the activist hung for saying they dont want to be killed for profits. It is the rubber bullet. It is the pepper spray. It is the extinct species. It is the dyeing world. It is the polluted air. It is the tainted water. It is the accident at the nucleur power plant. it is the oil spill. It is the break in the pipeline. It is the brakes that failed. It is the dwindling bio deversity. It is the patented seed. It is the farmer killing her/himself with the pesticides that were going to make life better. It is the seat belt that mangled you, but didnt kill you entirely. It is the blood dripping from the cut you got at work, but cant afford to let it heal. It is the concrete beneath your feet. It is the stairs you fall down. It is the train that went off the tracks. It is the plane that blew up. It is the boat that sank. It is the drink you take to just forget it all. It is your misery. It is your world.
Its everything to you. it is civilized existence and the mindset which maintains it. Its what makes devastation seem not so shocking. It takes you through the day. It dulls you out at night. It gives you nightmares. It gives you dreams. It is your feeling of not having accomplished enough. It is the desire to have a child to complete yourself. It is the physical and mental barriers of civilized life. It is civilization and it has become you. It is a mindset. it is a power. it is physically reinforced to block off the reality of its powerlessness by mediating human existence from the natural world. It is the feeling of superiority, which supplies the reason to destroy all else. It is unnatural. It will fall, but will you fall with it? it is personal and it is individual. It is defeatable and its defeat is needed for our liberation, as wellas for that of all else that human kind has set out to conquer and overpower. Freedom is only a thought away. Liberate the mind and the body will follow.
So was it proper for him to be arrested for that?
