I live in Pittsburgh, about a mile from the University of Pittsburgh. I have an enormous amount of anger towards the police and the university administration. The danger was created by the police and the university administration bears responsibility for the failure to close the university and adequately warn students about the dangerous police action. There's a reason they call them less-lethal munitions. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=847898 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=847898 is a note about a girl arrested for holding the door to her dorm open. Really. Please read it; it's a good one. However, I have no anger with regards to the use of the LRAD device. It's obviously a slippery slope (a greased volume control?), but it was used with the volume all of the way down. The LRAD is safer and more effective than OC gas, police batons, and rubber bullets. Unfortunately, on Thursday and Friday nights, they stuck to the OC gas, batons, bullets, and lots of flex-cuffs. I would be happy to answer specific questions about the G20 police action in Pittsburgh. You can also see my comments on New Mogul.

One of their journalists was arrested, along with two from the Pitt News. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09270/1001203-53.stm?cmpid=MOSTEMAILEDBOX http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/09270/1001203-53.stm?cmpid=MO...
