‘First Amendment Cop’ Becomes Internet Icon
Submitted by Bradley Keyes on Fri, 2012-11-30 01:00
Deputy Sheriff Stan Lenic, the cop who stood up for the First Amendment by refusing to impede the free speech rights of activists at Albany International Airport, has become an Internet icon, with messages of support flooding in to the Albany County Sheriff’s Office and Lenic being honored with a commendation.
It's nice to occassionally see an video where the cop actually defends a person's rights.
