Elmhurst eye-rolling incident raises questions

Elmhurst officials are considering creating a "disturbance and disorderly conduct" violation after a resident accused of rolling her eyes and sighing was ejected from a public meeting.

City Attorney Don Storino has been directed by the city’s finance and council affairs committee to look at various sources including “Robert’s Rules of Order,” Illinois state statutes and policies adopted by other municipalities for a legal definition of disorderly conduct and disruptive behavior.

He is expected to report his findings to the committee on July 26.

Rolling her eyes was okay. It was taking them OUT and throwing them on the floor that was disorderly!

Next, arrest for making a frowney face.

I think the public in Elmhurst is entitled to a significantly less pretentious group of pompous assholes for city leaders.

We ain't seen nuthin' yet. The Ruling Class will ban outright any form of dissent they don't like before too much longer.

What was once the highest form of patriotism...they now call subversive hate speech.....
