Ericson Harrell, the South Florida cop arrested for protesting Obamacare besides a busy highway while wearing a Guy Fawkes mask and waving an upside down American flag, posted the video of his arrest for the first time since the November incident, showing the cops accusing him of disrupting traffic when they were the ones blocking an entire lane of traffic, forcing cars to bottleneck into an even slower traffic jam. What’s not in the video is the part where Plantation Sergeant Alfred Stanco walks up to him and rips the camera out of his hands, claiming it could be a weapon -- never mind the 8-foot flag pole he was hoisting. This, of course, was before they discovered he was a North Miami Beach police officer who was fully armed. The story made national news, Harrell said his camera batteries died on him moments before Stanco walked up to him (which is why the video gets stuck for the last four minutes). He told them he was a cop as they were patting him down and they asked him why didn’t he inform him from the get-go. He was charged for refusing to remove his mask, a rarely invoked law written decades ago to target KKK members. The statute, posted below, is poorly written because it makes a very broad statement about not being allowed to wear a mask in public, before clarifying the law is only applicable if the wearer of the mask is about to engage in criminal activity.
