sorry but she is going to lose.
Yup.
Where I live as long as you don't verbally or physically threaten the officer, you can say anything you like.
Freedom of speech does not trump disturbing the peace. Plus she was trying to evade the cop which then gives him probable cause to detain her. As she continued to try and get away it became resisting. The cop wasn't trying to prevent her from "exercising her first amendment", he was trying to keep her from distubing others.
this wasnt at night. There is not noise restriction during the day. She could not possibly have been any louder than a or construction workers shouting at each other over the sound of banging hammers and power tools, dump trucks or those annoying suvs with there bass thumping. She was not evading anyone she was on her fone actually minding her own business. The officer was trying to illegally detain her. Granted she could have stoped and asked the officer if she was being arrested or detained then went on her way but then again the officer was on a power trip and illegally harassing her.

Not at all. She should have shut the fvck up when told to
She has no business cursing loudly in a public area. I have to deal with stupid idiots like this everyday on the metro and they should all be beaten. If she was so concerned for her baby, why didn't she just stfu? It's not like the officer was trying to get her to do something wrong.

Some add'l items there.
"She does admit egging the officer on by asking the officer whether he wanted to 'flex some muscle today.' "
Although it does seem that the transit cop could have found a better way to handle this.

If you walk down a public street swearing loudly you are still not covered under the first amendment and you are disturbing the peace. If you see a cop and start running away that is enough cause for them to detain you. She was in a public place swearing loudly and began "avoiding" the police. I see nothing wrong.

Mainly because you have no clue what really happened. You say she was not evading anyone and was minding her own business. The second she starts yelling out loud and cursing out loud on her phone, it becomes everyone?s business. Like I said previously, I deal with retards like this on a daily basis on the metro and usually end up asking them to keep it down. Most of the time, they comply but every once in awhile, there will be someone who refuses. Again, if she was so concerned about her baby, why was she acting the way she did towards the officer. The last thing I would be doing is egging on the officer.
