Thomer, who says he was charged with disorderly conduct after using the word "crippled" to promote a comedian with muscular dystrophy claims Cincinnati police violated his free speech rights, and the comedian agrees. Thomer, of Cold Spring, Ky., is to appear in a Cincinnati courtroom on the charge Wednesday. He was cited by Cincinnati police last month at a park after he and Bruener say he asked people if they wanted to "laugh at the crippled girl." (AP Photo/The Cincinnati Enquirer, Cara Owsley)
