So I was in town last night around 10.30-11pm. I was wearing a black hoodie and a peaked balaclava. It isn't what I normally wear but it was fit for purpose. I was sticking flyers about anarchism and other political messages along the high street on laptops, walls and shop windows. Rather oddly, the police arrived in town right after I stuck a flyer on the local bank's doors. They came up to me, asked me my business and I told them I was simply placing flyers along the high street.
They opened my satchel, questioned me about them and I told them that I am an anarchist. They arrested me on the spot on the suspicion that I had the capacity to breach the peace or commit acts of terrorism. They took me down to the police station, questioned me and I remained courteous at all times. Then, they told me I was being released but because of my political philosophy, I am being monitored.
Does anyone else think this is f ucking ridiculous?

2 отв.....So you are anarchist....and cannot figure out why you were arrested.... -______- You idiot. Anarchist in all that it means one thing. No respect for rule of law. They had all the probable cause just in the fact you claimed to be an anarchist.

What you did was you took the shit (what was started by your posters) out of the can and threw it at the fan (why did you just say Im an anarchist like seriously just go say Im a terrorist or some crap they will do background checks and make sure you arn't dangerous to society).

2 отв.I'm not a lawyer so I wouldn't be able to tell whether putting signs up in a private business without consent is legal or not, however you should try handing the flyers out cause I've seen people do that with flyers that would be considered offensive by many and not get any heat over it. But man, this country is tiring me with its hypersensitive people. Props for doing what you're doing by the way, I may not agree with your beliefs but it takes balls to do that.

If you really want to be an anarchist in Britville, steal one of those cut out policeman you see in shops like WH Smith etc. Then place it so it is standing over a sleeping homeless man. ;)
