Cheering and clapping = disruption and the end of a meeting. Absolute insanity in Loudoun county.

How is a scheduled meeting an unlawful assembly?

Citizens can't trespass on public property. Yo sheriff.

Boards constantly arrest people all the time for talking past the timer or 'trespassing' by hanging around after a meeting is officially called over. Those in 'power' can no longer control the community so they disperse and arrest. FIRE THE BOARD!!

How can this not be a problem for LoCo Sherriff's office? VERY disappointed to see these actions being taken. The School Board works for and is paid by the taxpayers of LoCo. They get a platform to speak.

That puts the police in an awful position. They lawfully ended the meeting—did they not? Next step: recall the board members who did.
