Determining First Amendment Rights

NBC News Chicago, reported that Police arrested two reporters saying, "Your presence is creating a scene." The officer was quoted as saying, "Your First Amendment rights can be terminated if you're creating a scene or whatever." It's interesting how the city blocks off traffic and barricades the streets every year for the Gay Pride Parade, evidently that is not what they consider "creating a scene." If you've ever been there, you know that they most definitely creat a scene. Such is the world of double standards in politics.
