Ya I know what an ROR is, I just can't believe they are refusing. So it is clearly a media stunt.
It's confirmed. As soon as they signed they were released with a court date.
It was a media stunt. By the Protesters. They wanted the big show of the three arrested proudly marching out the front doors of 52 division into the cheers of hundreds having humbled the cops into giving in.
Instead the cops calmly waited them out without a hint of violence, paid strict attention to the law and the safety of them(including arranging for medication for one) and then released them without incident.
Look I'm of the opinion the statues can come down. And instead put up an extensive monument discussing the good and the bad. But this was a publicity stunt clearly planned right down to lawyer ready to go and agitators ruling up the crowd.
