Y’know, assault is generally defined as causing a person to fear for their safety. What these cops were doing was absolutely assault, bumping into someone’s shoulder is not. Plus it kinda looks like a football play the aide, Freeland and the cop were playing.

    Had a microphone and a cameraman, asking questions, in a public space, of a politician. Sounds like reporter to me, not harassment. What the cop did is though. But why should you care? Nothing at all to every worry about if it’s only the civil liberties of people you disagree with get trampled, there’s not been cautionary tales about the results or nothing. Honestly, maybe you should “brush up on the Charter”, but i don’t think you give a shit about it. Fucking thing has so many loopholes and exceptions to personal rights anyways, it’s never much too help.
