Police Intimidation, Harassment Are Attempts to ‘Silence First Amendment Rights,’ Protester Says
Protestors in Omaha believe that police have shown a clear pattern of targeted intimidation and harassment during recent demonstrations, part of the basis of a lawsuit filed against the city by the ACLU of Nebraska. During weekly protests in the Old Market, police stops, searches and citations have become regular occurrences. Protesters believe Omaha police are sending a clear message: Dissent is not welcome.
“They’re trying to silence our First Amendment right, and they’re trying to silence any form of criticism,” ProBLAC organizer “Bear” Alexander Matthews said.
