RE: Roxii Love - Anarchist Activist (video/podcast)

Can we change weird laws, bad laws, by getting involved in city halls, in calling people, in knowing people, in pressuring people, and in letting other people know which laws exist? I was in jail for 2 weeks and almost a year trying to stop a drunk from making a prank call.

Really? How did that happen? You didn't like, try to stop him by putting a gun to his head

Thrown in Prison

I was in jail for stopping my dad's drunk GF from calling the cops. So, my dad's GF, Robin Baker, back in 2012-07-13 - Friday the 13th of July of 2012 in Oregon, was yelling at me as I came home to cook dinner in the kitchen. I told her nicely to go to her room. She got mad and went to call 911. So, I grabbed the phone from her. She pulled out another phone and called.

Could Have Lied

The police came and asked if I stopped the first phone call and I said yes. Had I lied and said no, the cops were going to just leave as nothing happened or so they said.

Taking The DA Deal

Instead, I was thrown in jail for 2 weeks. The DA made a deal with me that I would plead guilty to hurting her in exchange for the bigger crime of interfering with a 911 call being dropped. They said I would be found guilty of the 911 violation law or whatever it is and that I may end up in jail for like 12 months and also fined thousands of dollars or so they told me, allegedly. I thought for days about fighting it all in court but then eventually decided to take the deal that the DA gave me.
