I WAS JUST CITED WITH THE Unconstitutional Parking Lot Ordinance JIM CROW LAW

I have been protesting the parking lot ordinance down town because it goes against our constitutional rights. I have filmed encounters and projected on fridays downtown, last night, despite our right to peaceably assemble, I was given a citation for "loitering" -We filmed and projected the police live, and will have footage up soon.

I have filmed encounters and projected on fridays downtown, last night, despite our right to peaceably assemble, I was given a citation for "loitering" -We filmed and projected the police live, and will have footage up soon. Basically I'm looking for help because I'm pretty sure this is a chance to bring this to court and have the law removed. it's unconstitutional, and its a pretty open and shut case, -in the sense that if they don't give us what we want, we don't listen, and head for the federal courts slowly but surely...

Please contact me if you could help in anyway, I know it's not a big deal for everyone, but Jim Crow laws won't stop without a fight, and just because the law doesn't discriminate doesn't mean the police officers don't...
