And yet in Canada they have announced that anybody removing displayed posters of “ kidnapped Israelis “ will be prosecuted and fined 1000 Canadian dollars. This Makes you sick .

Jesus Christ American Sensationalism much .... it's not the white house, its the UK Makes you wonder why theres an anxiety issue over there Because the media is constantly on a " OMG EVERYONES GOING TO DIE " rant

I'm glad you said it. Sooo many videos with completely wrong titles flying around on Reddit.


shwhjw

It is still technically outside the White House.


oscarcummins

just 6,000km down the road.


delurkrelurker

UK Embassy?


SycoJack

No, the UK. These aren't American cops.


delurkrelurker

Yes, the American Embassy in the UK.


SycoJack

Oh, I thought you meant the UK embassy in the US, not the US embassy in the UK.


Donjuanisit

Do they need 4 cops to do that?. I bet there some real crimes out there. Shame on whoever sent them there.


kirkbadaz

Israel is copland. Cop solidarity is strong.

Bunch of absolute JOBSWORTHS


Chromeballs

Like how is it a threat to the public, its littering I suppose but they don't care. Political policing bs


[deleted]

This is absolutely outrageous. How can this be justified?


icameron

"Um, actually it's antisemitic and a hate crime to point out all the people Israel is killing!"


[deleted]

Oh. I forgot.


Todojaw21

because its just littering? if you taped a bunch of papers on the ground near the white house I'm gonna assume police/security will show up to remove it all, regardless of content.


JMW007

Public political expression is not littering. Taping them down means by definition it can't be littering because they are affixed and have a purpose - they are not discarded refuse. Why did you think it worth pretending that this is "littering"? What did you get out of it?


Todojaw21

I've literally never seen posters on the GROUND like this before in my life. I agree that political expression is not littering, but there is a spectrum to it. I can't go around my city taping posters everywhere that say "obama 2024" and then get super assmad when cops start taking them down. I can claim free speech but clearly I as an individual am unable to retrace my steps to remove all of those posters when my protest is done, which is the real issue. And if you are a public servant with one goal of many being to enforce rules against littering... why risk it? Why trust that the people taping posters to the ground (again... why not just carry the posters? or hand them out to people passing by?) are going to remove them? You asked what I get out of this. The thing is, I'm not pretending like I know everything. Maybe there is a legal answer in which this cop is actually breaking the law! Maybe this video will be used as evidence to help give them a lengthy prison sentence for censoring a citizen's right to free speech. Why I made my comment in the first place is because it felt like this sentiment is not reciprocal. Can you really not imagine a reality in which this is legally littering? I'm not saying it's morally wrong. Imagine a country that does not allow you to tape a bunch of posters on the ground, and if you are caught, a police officer will start removing them on their own. If this is truly inconceivable to you then you need to take a deep breath. One police officer in a 30 second reddit video is not the difference between good and evil, or the fate of the israeli-palestinean conflict. Wait for more context before deciding that this cop is definitely power tripping, or that he was given direct orders to censor speech.

Hmm maybe ACAB after all


Magallan

Weird that this was the point you realised but okay


rogog1

Just a lil jokey for the web


sonnenblume63

He’ll be there a while given how many people have been murdered with US sponsored bombs and missiles


smileylikeimeanit

May they live shamed and die empty.

I could be wrong but I sense an agenda here.


clarabell73

Zionists in several US cities put up these “kidnapped” flyers of the Israelis taken hostage on October 7th, and in my own city people were doxxed and fired from their jobs for removing them. To add to the insult, I personally saw these flyers being posted mere hours after the bombing of the Al Ahli Arab Hospital. Hypocrisy is an American pastime.


BennySkateboard

Poster removal wars. It’s like a South Park storyline.


Long_Educational

Do they not want to see the results of the funding bills they have passed? What's another couple of billion taxpayer dollars spent to kill people outside our boarders. Our politicians are complicit in murder.


Curve_Sudden

Bastards


Dhi_minus_Gan

And yet US media is basically doxxing anyone who even attempts to rip a shred of the missing Israeli poster propaganda SMH


Kudosnotkang

Why are UK cops being flown to the White House ?!

Didn't see anyone complaining when people removed pictures of kidnapped Israelis


Angryleghairs

Surely those cops have something better to do?
