So, this guy Daniel Moffat circulated petitions that questioned the heavy use of police surveillance cameras and soon found himself on the receiving end of an apparently unwarranted search by Philadelphia police.

Said 9th District Police Captain Dennis Wilson: “They’re a hate group. We’re trying to drum up charges against them, but unfortunately we’ll probably have to let them go.”

Other choice bits include Wilson telling Moffat “You’re not being charged; you’re being investigated” and “Call it a kidnapping.”

I’ll let that sink in for you: distributing literature questioning heavyhanded police tactics makes you a “hate group.”

What does the internet say, though? Isn’t that what we’re here for? No commentary, just a sheer illiterate stupidity dump this time:

We’ve all met clowns like this. What a shock that he’s from California. Clowns like this just look for ways to cause problems, irritate their neighbors, and deal meth out of their basement. I’ve no sympathy for him or his loser friends.

The police are just doing their job.If they uncovered some plot that these people were planning a mass massacre then everyone would be praising them.

If these people were BLACK Rev Al would already be on his way to are city

Philly needs more roustings like this to route out the criminal element and take back control of the city. The occupants of the house should be glad that they weren’t faced with bullets, bulldozers or C4!

Yes they did have probable cause. You bleeding heart liberals are pathetic. Stop believing that the police dont have a right to look for suspected criminals. These folks have the motive for destroying the cameras, they were in the vicinity and refused to show ID when the police went to the home. WAKE UP! This aint kindergarten

Dude looks like complete White Trash. Looks like he should be working for Eddie Welch Landscaping

This clown is guilty of something - the police don’t just pick random houses and trash them.

O-K, so the guy is a social lefty do gooder living in a ghetto where one of the locals would probably shank him to death anyway. It’s just a matter of time. So he has an “agenda”. Everybody has an agenda. He’s not harming anybody. It’s just that this type of flake tends to get the blood of authority figures boiling and causes them to do gestapo like things because they probably don’t get enough sex at home and are frustrated. To quote that well known dirt bag Rodney King the only time he ever got anything right in his miserable life: “Can’t we all just get along?”

Let’s give Philadelphia a big hand, everybody. Birthplace of liberty! Can you dig it?

  1. I LOVE the philly.com comment section. It provides the gammut of emotion if you read it first thing in the morning. Mostly depression though.

    As a note, I drive by this spot everyday on the way home, I had no clue folks were living there.
