There are a number of out-dated laws still in effect and being enforced, one of which is actually dancing at a national memorial. After one woman was arrested for dancing, a group of five people decided to come back and protest…
The result of that protest can be seen here.
While a lot of people would like to side with the police and ask, “Why the hell would you dance at the Jefferson memorial?” the better question is, “Why can’t you?” As long as you’re not harming anyone I don’t see why you deserve to be choked.
I’m pretty sure there are better ways of serving the public than policing where people shake their hips.
