You are missing the point and ignoring the first party. The first party was a Beer Keg Party, these kids were arrested for under age drinking.
See if you can grasp this...These same kids set up this Root Beer "Keg". They listed it on My Space as " A Keg" party and lead people to belive it was a beer keg party, as the first party, which was a beer party was on My Space and the kid's parents saw it and reported it.
The purpose and intent was to lead people to belive it was a real Keg party, so the police would respond and get embarrassed. To teach these kids a lesson they police did what they did.
See the issue is not that it was a Root Beer Keg party, but the issue is that these kids did this to relaliate against the police for arresting them for underage drinking at the first party, which was a Beer Keg party, not a Root Beer Keg party.
Get all the facts straight next time. You keep ignoring the facts of the first party and why these kids had the Root Beer Keg Party.
Get yet or are you still trying to ignore the facts that lead up to the Root Beer Keg Party.

At the first party they all were under age at a Beer Keg party and tested positive for alcohol. What is so hard to understand about that. Did you ignore that part of my post.
Second disorderly conduct does not have anything to do with drinking but with the intent to cause a distrubance. This was realted to the second party not the first.
Third, I have a much better understanding of the law and the situation than you seem to. Prehaps you should consult a lawyer or judge or it you are one you are not very capable. However, my guess is you are a student or professor who thinks they know it all when in fact you don't have the brains to get all the facts and get an understanding of the facts before making a post based on assumptions.

<quoted text> So what the cops did was illegal. Do adults, cops, usually go around being stupid like this, retaliating???? The cops violated these kid's 4th Amendment rights and their oaths of office. Why
hasn't anyone filed charges against them yet??

And yet again ignoring the fact that this so called "Root Beer Keg Party" was in retailiation for arresting them for underage drinking at the first party which was a true Beer Party.
You are trying to ignore the facts.
The true issue here is the fact that the second party was a set up to embarrass the police, because the police arrested them a week before for underage drinking. Had this not been the case the police would not have reacted the way they did.
Try looking at all the facts not just the ones you want to focus on. Try seeing the whole picture. The problem is you are ignoreing the under age drinking party that leas up to this completely.
Or do you think it's okay to retaliate against the police if they arrest you for committing a crime. Or are you of those involved.

<quoted text>Set up to embarrass the police, which they did easily.......hmmmmm.........I think the Zen Birdist Barney Fife thing has some merit here.......does the Wausau Police chief allow the officers to put bullets in their guns?

<quoted text> Just For The Record, Who is retaliating against who?? Who should have a greater sense and power of reasonning, a bunch of high school kids or a highly trained, expensive police force??? The cops violated the law and the kids rights, they should be charged and penalized for their "juvenile" actions. The kids did nothing but be kids, the cops were a bunch of buffoons, worse than normal.

In simple English these kids were gettjing revenge for the police arresting them the week before for underage drinking at a "Beer Keg" Party that was advertised on My Space. Underage drinking is against the law. The police arrest them at the second party because these kid represented it as a beer party, had someone call 911 to report a "keg party". This was to embarrass the police because this party was a Root Beer Keg party.
Of course, as the week before these kids had an underage drinking party the police had no reason to believe the caller was not telling the truth.
When the police arrived the kids yelled "Got Ya", and admitted to the set up.
First the police don't answer the 911 calls, a 911 dispatcher does and determines if the call is real or not and dispatches the police.
Now would you have prefered for them to stop responding to 911 calls.
Second, these kids were arrest to teach them not to mess with the police just becuase they were upset that the week before they were arrest for underage drinking at a beer party where they consumed beer. Did they over react maybe. However, the lack of respect for the law is in referrence to the first party that was an underage drinking party. The one you and the media have ignored. The one that caused the chain of events that lead up to the "Root Beer Keg" Party.
You are completing ignoreing all the facts, because if you look at all the facts you would have to admit that these kids were in the wrong.
Had the prior events not happend I would have agreed with you, but I know the full story and the chain of events. These kids were just upset they got caught the week before for breaking the law.
Apparently, you are unable to comprehend the complete chain of events. Which makes any further discussion on this issue irrelvant and a waste of time.
