Now i have the luxury of saying what i would have,should have, couldhave done, if i was there,but i would stood up and screamed,"You'll never take me alive coppers!"at the riot police then took a running jump in that river and backstroked to the other side. I think i would have made it. If they took me alive and called me out on it , i would have said "Well you took me alive mein fuher." "Good for fucking you, if you had any self respect at all you would be out robbing for a living ya bastard."
that would only help at the very moment... what it will do in fact is justify violent arrests and would probably lead to more prevention/security in the public. Do u WANT that?
Non-violence is STILL the best response, especially if recorded like this. Because this WILL raise questions.
If the people started getting violent, then most people will think, well they need to be arrested. But THIS? why? or wtf?
I do believe the people out numbered the cops. That's what I would have done. Don't just stand there and allow them to violate your rights. You are going to jail anyways why not fucking fight. This was wrong. Very wrong.
Great video footage, lots of great shots rarely seen in hand-held on-the-spot videos like this. I also like the guy you're standing next to in the very beginning with the Nikon SLR, bet he got some cool pictures.
As for the "This is what it *will* be like if XXX becomes president" people, it doesn't matter who is in office, the U.S. government as a whole is going downhill, and fast.
Hi I was right next to while you were filming it the gy talkng to the cop in the beginning was my husband, and you can view us tsanding by the railing as well in the begininng. That day really changed my life. It suxed cuz I wasnt even a protestor or whatever. I was trying to get home to my daughter!
7:20 They even got commando style cops carrying high powered shooters, that looks like potential kill. If they keep going on like this, these protesters are going to carry other things apart from protest signs.
'If you don't claim your humanity you will become a statistic, you have been warned - Tyler'
um... yea... you know Y the police carry high powered weapons? just incase dumb fucks like the code pink try anything stupid..im prior service and im part of a military family... i think this is disgusting how you code pink people think its right to protest and fight to not go to war and to bring our troops home... join the military... then come back and tell how you feel if its the same or not.. we are not in Iraq or Afghanistan for a needless cause.. we are there to help... dumb fucks..
Disgusting - looks like something out of 1984. Then read all the attitude from the suburbanite robots who wouldn't have a clue about questioning any authority. Isn't plutocracy just great?
We were warned a week before by a St. Paul cop not to even go downtown during the RNC - I guess I see what meant.
Please someone tell me why there were only peaceful protest from conservatives at the dnc but this shit happens at the rnc? I'm dying to know. I thought the democratic party was about peace and about coming together as a nation. Instead you have some anarchist causing trouble so instead of blaming them you guys blame the police and the government. You guys are pathetic!
Why the FUCK ARE THEY NOT POINTING IN THE FACES OF THESE ASSHOLES AND TELLING THESE FUCKS........." FUCK YOU THIS IS MY COUNTRY"!!!!! I SEE WHAT THEY ARE DOING..........THERE TAKING THE SMALL TOWNS FIRST. THEN, THEY WILL MOVE ON THE BIG CITYS!!!!!!! GO AHEAD AND SIT YOU FUCKING SHEEP!!!!!
The gas masks were not just for their own protection should they need to gas these "criminals", but to keep them unidentifiable while the "world is watching". Cowards and government puppets. Wow, and such criminals this group obviously were! I feel safer that they protected us! What B.S. this was!!
I love the comment at 7:05..."The weed's wearing off man". No shit!
why are the civil servants wearing gas mask while the citizenry is breathing fine? Was somebody planning something? The cops seemed prepared to gas everyone. Intimidation. I adhere to the First Amendment. It doesn't look as if the Republicans have any use for the Constitution. What will they do when there is no Constitution to protect them from their bosses?
MACHINE GUNS!!! WTF???? I would've tried anyway - if they shot me, it would either make it on video somewhere or HOPEFULLY cause all those who were fenced in to finally get up and bum rush the lines.
Dude I'd call every marine and Ex marine and their wives that I know and this fucking Nazicops would be toast
