Chicago Police Echo White House Saying First Amendment Rights Can Be Terminated?

There is one thing that Barack Obama has been successful at since taking the helm of the nation and that is trampling on the US Constitution and the constitutional rights of American citizens. The Constitution requires the President to obey and protect the laws of the land. Nowhere does it say that he can ignore or pick and choose which laws he wants to keep and which ones he can disregard. That’s one of the reasons our Founding Fathers established three branches of government and not one.

Now the Chicago police department is following Obama’s example and telling people that their First Amendment rights can be terminated anytime. Check out the incident caught on camera when a couple of news reporters were trying to cover a story outside a Chicago hospital.

Following the threat, the officer arrested the two journalists. Even though they were released a short time later, the incident has not gone unnoticed. According to the National Press Photographers Association, there have been 70 such arrests that they have documented since last September.
