Police arrest woman recognized to speak by Mayor at city council meeting
Watch in disbelief as the sheeple in the audience remained submissively seated as Jennifer Jones has her First Amendment rights trampled and is arrested after having been formally recognized to address the Quartzsite City Council by the town’s Mayor. As she began exposing misdeeds, she was taken into custody by police.

WOW! What an outrage. My money is on Tom Horne I think he will get involved, at least I hope so.
today is day 10…..has anything happened yet?
Shelly, I sure hope he does.
Many folks on this site, & in the Conservative ranks Supported Mr. Horne. The fact that 10 days have gone by is disappointing enough. What has become of Ms. Jones? Are the arresting officers & their offense being addressed? As a Biker, I’ve had this kind of thing happen to me, & seen it happen NUMEROUS times to others…just because we (they) ride. Law enforcement absolutely hates a citizen that knows their rights. Harsh? Maybe. True? Yep.
We just celebrated Independence Day. Where are our First Amendment rights of free speech? Ms. Jones was given the floor by the mayor and should rightfully have been allowed to address the council and audience.
What was the crime for which she was arrested?
Rumor has it that there have been at least 2 mysterious “suicides” in the last few years up there. The “sheeple” may be hoping not to personally add to that number. That makes Ms. Jones even more of a heroine in my eyes. Bless her and pray for them all.
Unnnnnnnbelievable…. I hope the people in Quartzsite make this right. The question is what would any of us do in the same situation?
Jane, I would go to jail WITH her had I been there. They can’t shut EVERYONE up!

Dyann, all of us interested in freedom need to come to that same understanding!
Just returned from an early morning meeting at Wildflower restaurant in Scottsdale. They have newspapers available for customers to read. I arrived earlier than the others and saw that the newspaper finally gave some coverage of this obscene situation in Quartzsite. The article even quoted Mayor Ed Foster , who called police chief Jeff Gilbert “a thug,” and said Jennifer Jones “just tells council members things they don’t want to hear.”
The newspaper even went so far as to report that the video of Jennifer Jones being arrested was on YouTube. Looks as though the folks at the Repulsive are reading the blogs. That’s a good sign!
We took care of this hubris in Gilbert. Re-elect No ONE!
We have a similar situation here in NE Pennsylvania. There are a couple of leaders in a town who think that they can trample on the citizens rights. Is this America, home of the free, or a new USSR? I hope the state gets involved and If I were Jennifer Jones I would take this even further so the corruption is exposed and dealt with. Sooner or later the mighty crumble!
It got worse: The town council took over the town of Quartzsite removed the Mayor and put the chief of police in charge who declared a state of emergency. This is why citizens are to be armed.
