cynatnite (24,525 posts) Mitt Romney Was Arrested For Disorderly Conduct In 1981It’s a little reported anecdote, but in 1981 presumptive Republican Presidential nominee Mitt Romney was arrested for disorderly conduct. The issue of Romney’s arrest first came to light during his 1994 Senate run against incumbent Senator Ted Kennedy, appearing at an unfortunate time while Romney was running ads talking to police officers with sirens in the background, promising to be tough on crimeAccording to what Romney told the Boston Globe in 1994, he had taken his family off to Wayland, Mass.'s Lake Cochituate, about an hour outside Boston, for a summer excursion. As Romney prepared to put his family boat into the water, a park officer told Romney not to launch because his license appeared to have been painted over. The officer told Romney if he put his boat into the water he would face a $50 fine.<--->Several days later, Romney appeared in Natick District Court and threatened to sue the arresting office for a false arrest. The charges were dropped and sealed at Romney’s request."He did not have the right to arrest me because I was not a disorderly person. This was an obvious case of false arrest," Romney said. "The officer obviously agreed because he agreed to dropping the case."
As I said elsewhere today... This has legs, Romney is toast!!!!
Do they REALLY want to go down the 'cops were bought off' & 'laws don't apply to the rich' road ? REALLY ??
That's a big 10-^5 for bringing up the natural conclusion. Well played.
What has a license plate, a wealthy 'entitled' owner - and even though it is in the water illegally, it isn't the Romney's family boat ?
Ummm...the yacht John Kerry hid from tax collectors, with a license plate attached?
