Seriously, wtf? The guy was working for a good cause, I'm down with that. Watching the video, though, I've got no sympathy. He's very obviously antagonizing things, intentionally loitering around in the background of the shot. Is/should that really be illegal? Probably not. Does acting like a complete douche end up hurting the cause he's trying to promote? I think so.
Here's what I saw:
- Guy's out in a silly suit promoting a good cause. Good so far.
- Guy sees a News Crew, and an opportunity for some additional free publicity. Still okay.
- News Crew asks Guy to leave, he refuses. Well, that tears it.
- News Crew eventually calls cops to escort Guy from the area. I don't really know how I feel about this one.
How is this news? Oh, right, I get it. We're supposed to feel feel sympathy for the jackass, then throw our arms up in protest of the police state we live in (side note: actually a problem!), right? Oh, for fuck's sake, people! There's plenty of bullshit going on that actually warrants getting upset over, we don't need this.
