Would you rather be tasered, Sapphi?
Creating public unrest and disorderly conduct is against the Law. Resisting arrest is against the law. Public parks, monuments and what not are there for everyone to enjoy not just a select few idiots. My advise to you if a police officer in any country ask to cease and desist doing something, do it. It's the law for a reason, if you have a problem with that reason take up your cause in the right way. the legal system is an ever changing machine it is not set it stone. These guys were immature idiots, they got what they deserved.
