        .@aterkel @adjordan Has that 'no stopping' order been tested by journalists in court? A /freedom of press issue, isn't it?

        @aterkel @afaduln2 So they got no video? Why should a journalist go to #Ferguson without a camera even on their mobile phone?

        @CitizenWonk @aterkel that's one of the things driving me crazy is that they can't threaten the press like that

        @aterkel @maddow You don't need to stand still to cover the story & there are actual safety/logical reasons why they want to you move.

        @aterkel Do they count walking in circles around them as 'moving'?

        @Voktak @aterkel My understanding is that it is not legal. Ferguson is going to be facing an immense number of lawsuits before this is over.
