Pasadena- Victims of China’s human rights violations and human rights groups who had protested the inclusion of a float representing the Peoples Republic of China in the 2008 Rose Parade announce today their intention to sue the City of Pasadena, various public officials and private individuals for violation of their civil rights. We intend to show that these agencies and individuals acted in concert to unlawfully prevent the issuance of a city permit to us for a demonstration against China’s continuing abuse of basic human rights.
SO u typs on you laptaps as u walk around and post, hey?
What are the damages? No damages no tort. Shouldn't you be pursuing action against the PRC?
video tape the depositions please
What's the Chinese character for just plain stoopid?
These folks really have outlived their usefulness as a force for airing social issues. Now they're just plain foolish in their unswerving quest for publicity.
Next time, let's get the Scientologists to front for our real concerns as Pasadena citizens.
Somebody ring that Falun Gong and end this stoopidity.
D.
this is what happens when you ask the city for permission to protest.
the attempt to sue, shows they have no idea what they are doing.
