No, officer, I will not move.

Police in Brisbane have used force to remove me from a public street, but declined to press charges.

I don’t think they want an international incident on their hands.

This all happened because a bylaw officer lied and said I was obstructing people’s movement in a public square.

All I did, as usual for the past 4.5 years, was stand quietly by myself in the corner of the square, having conversations only with those who approach me.

He told me to move and I refused because I know my rights. I’m on a public street and I can have conversations.

He then issued me an $806 fine. I gladly accepted it. He ordered me to move again. I again declined. Then the police came. They debated for about 45 minutes what to do with me, before eventually saying I would be arrested and charged if I refused to move.

I could not agree to their terms with a clear conscience. I refuse to accept zealous abuse of power by those in authority, simply because I’m peacefully spreading a true message that vulnerable children are being maimed, sterilized, and turned into lifelong pharmaceutical patients.

I opted not to violate my integrity, so they physically removed me. I believe they know what they’re doing is wrong, which is why they then opted not to formally arrest and charge me.
