Anybody else watch the video? There were at least as many cops as protestors present. It's eerily reminiscent of those pictures from OWS where the cops were lined up outside banks.
- jurassic 14y agoTax dollars at work!
- gyardley 14y agoSure, but in both cases that's because when there aren't as many cops, these protests result in widespread property damage. This has unfortunately been the case since the WTO protests in Seattle in late 1999.
- thrownaway2424 14y agoThe protest is right across the street from the cop shop.
- beatpanda 14y agoYeah, look, given the organizers, I am shocked there weren't a bunch of fires in the streets last night. So from a distance the police presence looks like overkill, and I am no fan of the police in general, but they had every reason to believe the event yesterday was going to turn violent.
