Chalk Protest Slogans, SPVM Police Officers And Unitarian Universalist Pedophiles*Rapists - What's The Connection?

This 2013 U*UTube video of a polite, and reasonably professional, SPVM police intervention in my protest against Unitarian Universalist cover-up of sexual abuse that includes "such despicable crimes as pedophilia and rape" most certainly committed by certain Unitarian Universalist pedophiles*rapists such as Rev. Mack Wallace Mitchell, Steven Craig Bulleit, Rev. Ronald Eugene Robinson, and First Parish Norwell "pillar of the church" Richard Buell, to name a handful of U*U pedophiles*rapists, was brought to my attention today by a comment that was posted on it.

I have decided that it is worthwhile posting this 8 year old video here for multiple reasons, one of those reasons being that it documents what I consider to be a Sunday morning "philosophical discussion" with polite, and reasonably professional, SPVM police officers from Poste de Quartier 11 aka PDQ 11 that I think went quite well.





Other reasons for sharing this U*U video in a blog post today include the fact that the "philosophical discussion" with SPVM police officers regarding the legality of writing chalk slogans on the sidewalk (or street etc.) within the context of a protest that it documents could be informative to the general public in general, and activists in particular. There was-is some confusion about whether or not it is legal to write chalk slogans on the sidewalk during a protest, even among SPVM police officers themselves. Some SPVM cops believe that it is legal, others believe that writing chalk slogans violates municipal bylaws prohibiting "dirtying" the sidewalk.

Some of the comments posted in response to this video are quite pertinent to this issue, and support what I said to the SPVM police officers when I made it clear to them that I believe that writing chalk slogans on the sidewalk during a protest is in fact legal.

From Ricardus Lord High Executioner, who usually knows what he is talking about when it comes to the law:

Chalking is not mischief (that's 430 Criminal Code) it's so decided here in this decision R. c. Quickfall, 1993 CanLII 3509 (QC CA).

My response: Thank you for that information Lord High Executioner! What about "salir la voie puplique" aka dirtying the sidewalk?

Ricardus Lord High Executioner's answers:

P-12.2 Article 2 and its derivatives... I can find no jurisprudence for that, to figure out the definition of "salir".

and

There are cases where judges have recognised that chalking sidewalks is a right under the constitution, particularly as any rain would easily wash it away, it really isn't dirtying anything."

Power2084 weighed in saying:

There is indeed ample jurisprudence, Robin, that says that chalking the sidewalk is perfectly legal. Much of that juridprudence (sic) is american, but there is a substantial amount of canadian jurisprudence too. As to "salir la voie puplique", this is bullshit, only people opposed to the CONTENT of the message would find it's "salir" the sidewalk.

My response to Power2084:

Thanks for your comment. I have always believed that I am well within my constitutionally guaranteed civil rights to write chalk slogans on the sidewalk or street as part of a peaceful public protest. It is only certain SPVM police officers and one municipal court judge who have decided otherwise. Most cops don't dispute it but I was ticketed once and a municipal court judge upheld the "salir le trottoir" ticket when I contested it in court. I have refused to pay that fine.

I hope this information is helpful to other Canadians, to say nothing of Americans, who might want to write chalk slogans in a protest, but are not certain whether doing so is legal or not.

There are some other very good reasons for making this video more widely available, such as the fact that it documents that I was calling for the repeal or reform of Canada's archaic (and now repealed) anti-blasphemy law in October 2013, to say nothing of earlier. . . in the wake of being falsely accused of the archaic criminal act of blasphemous libel by the Unitarian Universalist Association's Canadian attorney, Stikeman Elliott Barristurds & Bullshitters defamation lawyer Maître Marc-André Coulombe, in UUA legal bullying that sought to intimidate me into deleting aka "memory holing" allegedly "unfounded and vicious" The Emerson Avenger blog posts that told, and still tell. . . the readily verifiable Truth about "such despicable crimes as pedophilia and rape" most certainly committed by Rev. Mack Wallace Mitchell and Richard Buell.

This video also documents the fact that Unitarian*Universalist child sex abuse cover-up enabling Montreal Unitarian U*Us, such as Petrina-Lee Poy who is seen speaking with SPVM officers in this video, are MUCH more interested in helping the Unitarian*Universalist "religion" to cover-up and deny "such despicable crimes as pedophilia and rape" committed by pedophile*rapist U*Us, than to expose and denounce such despicable sex crimes, to say nothing of exposing and denouncing decades worth of UUA cover-up and denial of pedophilia and rape, and other sex crimes committed by UUA clergy, UUA religious educators, and prominent U*U "lay people". . .
