Occupy protesters “branded” with UV ink
- dkokelley 15y agoI'm sorry, but there really is not much substance here, IMHO. A protester was marked with UV ink after being arrested. The article is literally 4 paragraphs about it, with most of it being the protester retelling the harrowing story of being "violated" by the ink. Maybe there is a significant civil rights violation in place here. I don't know. What I do know is that I didn't get much value from clicking the link, and I doubt many others here will.
- seb_z_lite 15y agono, no substance. People are getting branded like cows but we'd rather read about the same ruby vs. python stories. That is substance!
- hactually 15y agoThis is pretty bad. It's hard to tell as the protestor was unable to witness the actual act but it sounds as if was applied with a tool designed to allow the ink to permeate the skin rather than sit atop. It's a pretty vile act to carry out on someone against their will.
