From the looks of things the floor was given to this lady. The council didn't like what she was saying so they had the police remove her. Which is a no no. They should of tabled the discussion for a later date. And then they would need a 2/3 vote to do so.

I don't think I need to continue. Perhaps re-reading the Bill of Rights would do you loads of good?
Unfortunately the first is about what CONGRESS may not do. It says nothing about the states.... Unfortunately.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances. en.wikipedia.org...
That means we have to look at the AZ Constitution: www.azleg.gov...
Right of petition and of assembly: article 2, Sect 5
Freedom of speech and press Article 2 sect 6
Freedom of speech and press
Section 6. Every person may freely speak, write, and publish on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that right.
www.azleg.gov.../const/2/6.htm
5. Right of petition and of assembly
Section 5. The right of petition, and of the people peaceably to assemble for the common good, shall never be abridged.
www.azleg.gov.../const/2/5.htm
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

Council is still out of line. Not following procedures is bad form.
Just because someone else is rude doesn't mean you have to be either.
They are supposed to act professionally.

Just this weekend, my brother and I were talking about the tinderbox this country was becoming. He doesn't typically listen to country music, but I do, and a song came on........I told him that I loved the song, but I never thought it would get any nationwide play, to my surprise the song went to #1 almost immediately and has stayed at the top of the charts nationwide! My brother listened to the song, and reminded me of a music history class that we both had, where it was proven that the popular music of an era is usually indicative of the upcoming social state. In other words, the music changes before the society changes. It has happened with prohibition, the great wars, the great depression, and the civil rights movement.
So, here is the song, listen to what is extremely popular right now, and see what you think might be in store for our society over the next few years.
I never cease to be amazed how different we all are, yet how much alike we have become.
Thank you for this song, it is awesome!

Isn't this exactly why the 2nd amendment excists? I remember reading about an incident where people thought that a sherifs election was rigged. The sherif himself wanted to count the votes behind locked doors. People didn't take nicely on that and with armed crowd took the votes and openly counted them and turned out they were right. That sherif did lose even though he had claimed that he had won.
