“Entire Park District Board Placed Under Citizen’s Arrest”

How cool!  Ten years ago, the board would’ve laughed at a citizen’s arrest.  In this video, the board members sat still and allowed the arrest to take place.  I don’t know if that’s evidence that this particular park board is naturally wimpy, or if government is getting the idea that the the “natives” are not only “restless,” but increasingly knowledgeable concerning the law and therefore dangerous.
