He's commenting on noise alone
The noise alone isn't what he got arrested for.
Acknowledged.
That isn't the point of the comment we are focused on.
Then what ARE you focussing on? You cherry pick two points, Boise and arrest, comment on that you shouldn't be arrested for noise... He wasn't arrested for noise, that is cherry picked.
Then when I say this, you say that you were focussed on something else...
What are you, fox news?
Ain't my comment.
Sounds like the original commenter was focused on noise.
Edit that he thinks noise alone is so offensive it's arrestable.
So did the cops, which is why they started walking over to his vehicle.
This whole thing could have been avoided if the cops had just left things alone. But instead they had to go all freakout over someone reving an engine.
There's a fair chance that with a good lawyer all charges get dropped as fruit of a poisoned tree. What a waste of effort and tax payer dollars.
What's the foundation for your belief that they approached the vehicle with the intent to arrest the driver?
It sure isn't this article.
Ok
