In Manchester, NH which is facing a secession movement, the Giuliani staff had Matt Lepacek arrested and his camera seized for asking questions. Lepacek was freelancing for infowars.com but also had official CNN press credentials for the Republican debate.
"Though CNN staff members tried to persuade police not to arrest the accredited reporter-- in violation of the First Amendment, Lepacek was taken to jail. The police station told JonesReport.com that Lepacek is being charged with felony criminal trespass."
The irredeemable condition of American government was manifest when Lepacek was told that "he may be transferred to a secret detention facility because state police were also considering charges of espionage against him-- due to a webcam Lepacek was using to broadcast live at the event. State police considered it to be a hidden camera, which led to discussion of 'espionage.'"
Other reporters were evicted also; Freedom to Fascism reporter Samuel Ettaro and Jason Bermas, reporting for Infowars and America: Freedom to Fascism.
The disturbance made it to Drudge.
