well when the people used their "rights" to throw balloons filled with piss & throw trash at cops because they knew cops wouldn't fight back, they may have needed some discipline for assaulting those officers. When the cops got their chance to retaliate, they took it. Do I think everyone deserved to get beaten like this? no, but it is not like the cops did this for fun. so all these people who say "fuck cops" need to realize some things before they say that. these guys were doing their jobs.
The pigs treated it like a war and it WASN'T. If the protesters REALLY wanted to attack the cops, the cops wouldn't have stood a fucking chance. But as it usually goes, the vast majority are peaceful, albeit stubborn (as they should be), the pigs have a hammer and everything looks like a nail, they lash out violently at protesters, create chaos, then claim that it was all the fault of protesters and they were "just doing their job". Time to eliminate their jobs then.
Its a wonderful sounds isn't it. The sound of booted police and soldiers marching on protestors. Its one of the real sounds of democracy and free speech.
This video is like pornography for Right-Wing Authoritarians. They believe anyone who protests against institutions of power is a traitorous scumbag who deserves to be beaten, imprisoned, or shot. Every protest video on Youtube is filled with comments from these type of people cheering violent aggression against civilians as if they are rooting for their hometown football team. This footage is from 1968 and America is even more of a fascist police state today than ever.
@siva171 More of a fascist police state? The commie flea baggers got off easy, they realized how irrelevant they were and dissolved before we could send them on a Gitmo vacation with free water boarding lessons.... LMAO.
@AtlasObjectivist You think ? wrong ! The Koch brothers did exactly what they wanted to do with the tea party and now they are trying to co-opt the occupy movement.

@SilverNrGy985 -Opt out of the system. Refuse to purchase food, gas, electricity, clothes, medicines, electronics, your car, bike or home. No one forces you to purchase these things brought to you by capitalism. It makes more sense and supports your beliefs with a greater power than calling people names, swearing and shooting yourself in the foot to prove you don't like shoes.
@siva171 It was Democrats who were in power in 1968. It was the Democrats National Convention in Chicago where this abuse of power took place. The police were ordered by Chicago Mayor Richard Daley DEMOCRAT to use whatever force necessary to stop the protestors.

Dear god, we could use some police like this in Oakland, California. The police in Chicago did their jobs. They restored order, for decent, honest, law-abiding citizens. They put the rioters out of business, and in prison.
That is what we need in Oakland, so that normal citizens (like me) can once again walk the streets again, in peace.
Are we going to get this in Oakland? Not with our current mayor, who is spineless and incompetent.
@timothywgray1 All I will say is good luck Mr.Timothy Gray. Every system needs sheep and lamb to follow, just wait till you get sacrificed. But you won't mind, will you? All in the name of the system!
@timothywgray1 You may be honest, and I'm sure as hell you are law-abiding. But you are not in the least bit decent. Rioters aren't in business, its the police that is. I hope I never see you on the streets of Oakland, because you will not be in peace. I would also check your definition of a "hero", because I think you were reading the definition for scum.
I'm no fan of the spoon-sucking, in-it-for-the-sex-and-drugs hippies, but the way the police went to town on *everyone*, protestor and bystander alike, they're lucky not to have gotten a barrage of Molotov cocktails for their trouble.
@FrankeeFraud: I agree with you completely. I would have gone 18th century on their Marxist assses. Though they should not put the billy clubs away. Use the clubs, military vehicles, bayonets, tear gas, rifles, and standard issue police guns to full advantage.
@FolkMusicFanatic Hopefully they would have gone Marxist on your 18th century-ass, toppled your government and created a socialist state on your shallow grave. :)
You can hear one lady yell: "If you want the street take it! Oh I think the police took the streets with flying colours. Bravo CPD and National Guard Huzzah!!!
"The confrentation wasn't started by the Police the confrentation was started by the people that charged the Police...Get the record straight gentlemen once and for all...The Policeman isn't there to cause disorder, the Policeman is there to preserve disorder..."
Good old law and order. We need more courageous officers like these guys. I'd give them all medals for bravery. Maybe next time Abbie Hoffman and the Yippies (Bolshevik scum) should have done the American thing obeyed the law gotten a permit.
@FolkMusicFanatic Like mayor daily the ganster was going to give them a permit.For all you younger people who just watched this.What is your freedom worth to you?As you can see to my generation it was worth laying everything on the line.Freedom Is Never Free! It's yours only if you are willing to fight for it.Even at my advanced age I hit the streets and protested bushs war.
@RushmoreGerleve Why do you have no rights now? Because you weren't paying attention? vietnam taught me alot of lessons 1 You have to watch the people in power constantly. If you want your rights back then take them back!But remember it can be dangerous . Are you willing to take a stand and not compromise not give up your principles?We are losing this country to fascism what are going to do about it?!

Vô liêm sỉ!!!
his 'democracy' is a farce. Whenever protest is disliked by the elite (the real people who run the country) it is suppressed as it would be in most any authoritarian regime. 1968 saw the assassination of many leaders that were against the Vietnam War, against expanding the power of the military industrial complex, and wanted to favor the poor and working poor, and middle classes in this country.The anti war majority was ignored. The good people lost. The empire won out over democracy.
@RainbowManification well lets see freeing Europe from the depravity of a psycho fascist dictator who was bent on world domination...and the extermination of an entire race as well as others who were deemed "imperfect".
@Dkelly160 Then why didn't we go to war with Stalin? Stalin killed almost 21 million people. We all know human compassion is only an overused pretext which wasn't even used in the days of WWII, the 1940s were the days were you trusted your government and had blind patriotism. We fought Hitler because he fucked with the allies to the breaking point. Freedom of speech as long as it is acceptable right? Home of the free?!?!? Land of the... brave?!?! Land of the coward and oppressed is more like it.
@RainbowManification Had we listened to General Patton we would have. The underlying reasons for not going to War with Stalin are simple 1)He had helped us dethrone Hitler 2) A war between the U.S. would have been much more longer/costly than both of the 2 World Wars 3) Once nuclear warheads came into the picture, the idea of aggressively attacking the Soviets vanished because it would have led to the annihilation of the entire world 4)They did not ally them selves with a nation that attacked us
@Dkelly160 In other words we only attack nations/empires/entities that we know we can win against because they are far militaristicly inferior to us? Also the truth is is that somebody always profits from war. The military-industrial complex is alive and well since Eisenhower's leave-of-office speech.
@RainbowManification Well not exactly...the Japanese and the Nazis weren't necessarily an inferior power actually in some ways they were a little superior in terms of the technology their weapon systems used. However Americans have always been good fighters if it wasn't for war this great country never would have existed so I credit our victory to the resilience and toughness that our troops are bred with. As for profiting from war, yes there is a profit and it is called FREEDOM.
@RainbowManification Also up until WW1 Americans had a firm belief in Isolationism, had it not been for the rest of world diving into chaos Americans would have stayed out of it. This past century we have learned that what happens over seas will eventually, no matter how long, arrive on our shores. My inclination is that "The best offense is a good defense". In other worlds try not to solve the worlds problems, rather prevent them.
@RainbowManification Sorry one more little bit....going into WW2 we had the world's 17th largest Army right behind Romania...so theory that we only attack weaker nations is just simply false.
@RainbowManification I had three other posts that I wrote that aren't displaying? Any matter, the only resource that is of any value in the M.E. is oil and if wanted it we would have taken it when we went over there and showed them how to drill it. America has helped the world more than any other nation or entity, it is actually quite sad that too few realize it. As for superpowers we are the least invasive, imagine what the world would look like if Stalin or Hitler were in charge.
@RainbowManification Well no, Iraq had over 1 millions troops and were not that much smaller than our own Army. Ours is simply better trained/equipped and it shows that it made all the difference. Toe to toe nobody can match America's military so no matter who we fight we will always be fighting either a slightly or extremely weaker power. So I don't really see the point in your argument.
@Dkelly160 You just proved my point, Iraq has a way inferior military, we only fight nations were we will suffer minimal damage as possible. Anyhow, what is so bad about not wanting to go to war? I shouldn't have to tell a grown man that unnecessary death is bad.
@RainbowManification I don't quite know how that proved your point. Being better trained and better equipped is an advantage, however that is not all it takes to win. When the colonists fought the British and defeated them we were out manned/gunned, and far less experienced. The point is that American's understand that unnecessary death is bad, but not all death is unnecessary. In order to protect our freedom and liberties that men, and women have fought for we will have to fight.
@Dkelly160 How do people hiding in a cave prove a threat to national "security" or to freedom? Terrorist suck at their job. Time Square bomber? fail. Shoe bomber? fail. Underwear bomber? epic fail. The only threat to my freedom today is my government.
@RainbowManification Well if you recall they were able to successfully hijack 5 or 6 commercial airliners...which in itself is a direct threat to you..and hit all but one target successfully. Just because they live in a far off region of the world doesn't mean they can't get to you. There has been numerous bombings reported throughout the world because their network is so vast and spread out the best way to stop it is to go to the heart of their leadership in afghanistan, or any other country.
@Dkelly160 your chances of being killed by a terrorist attack are very minimal compared to anything else you do in your daily routine. So I'm not to worried about it.
@RainbowManification Well when you can convince the families of the 3000 victims at the WTC, the 50 at the London train station and most recently the 60+ at the Moscow airport or the 130+ at the Madrid train bombing that it is nothing to worry about, then I will accept your argument as valid. Till then I will firmly believe that we need to continually assault their strongholds and keep up the pressure.
@Dkelly160 What strongholds? It is an embarrassment when the greatest military in the world can not find one man. Right now he is either dead or on an uncharted island off the coast of India being protected by Taliban and sipping martinis laughing his ass off at us. We have failed, just admit it. This was is un-winable. You can't fight a war where your enemy doesn't wear a uniform, Vietnam proved that. We came in with the belief that it would only take us a few years, looked what happened.
Peg, to be frankly honest I'm glad you bit the pseudo-troll bait. Aside from the video, are you telling me that you hold the same naive ideals you had as a "kid" in the 60's? It's been fifty years, grow up and realize that you are no longer that bleeding heart liberal patchouli hair reaking child, you have grown up into an old fart who has failed to accomplish any life long goals maybe due to a lack of dedication or maybe due to the fact that maybe papy touched your privates in the back of som
@phived actually I was not part of the flower children nor did I ever wear patchouli oil. I am not naive nor was I then. You, however, seem to be a bit perverted and thus really not deserving of further response.

now all these hippies are Republican greed freaks who own baskets of stock in Defense Industry and Prison for Profit Corporations, live in gated communities and make fun of crippled children.
@dogterd nonsense. there are still many people from the sixties generation who are doing their best to work for justice and peace. Many of the leaders against WTO in Seattle for instance. you don't have a clue what you are talking about. When were you born? What are you doing to change things besides saying obnoxious BS on youtube? If things don't change soon, none of us will be able to hold any sort of peaceful protest because we'll just be rounded up and carted off....
@peggyforpeace There's only one way to get ahead in America, and that's to get with the winning team. If you're not black or indian ( and therefore able to cash in on White Guilt with race based hiring and university admission ).. then you're choices are limited. I live in a city devoted to shortsighted greed, and Tarsands Oil... now if you'll excuse me, I have to go distribute truckloads of poisonous chemicals. Idealism is for kids. I have expensive toys to pay for.
@dogterd Wow. Such hostility...but you didn't really respond to my comments and questions. However I guess that I am a kid because I am still an idealist and hope that we can change the world for the better.
MANY COPS here were Vietnam Vets, I'm sure they were happy to beat some jagoff protester who mother fucked them when they returned to America. I believe in the right to assemble, peacefully. There are those that perpetuate the violence, then cry police brutality. I do not think any cop or National Guard wanted to be there anyways and that "gas" isnt lethal, its just used to disperse people.
Really? I really cannot sympathize with hippy scum. If they could have maintained jobs and at least a sense of self respect, you wouldn't have all this time to waste on pointless and meaningless protests. You mess with the bull, and guess what? You get the horns. This situation was handled correctly, 20,000+ people blocking Downtown streets, mob mentalities, and constant disorder must be brought to a stop before gotten out of hand. Chicago didn't get to where we are at now due to these hippies,
@phived were you alive during that time? certainly doesn't sound like you have a clue what it was like.... What do you mean about maintain a job? Were you ever subject to the Draft? Most of the people posting on here sound as though they were born within the last 25 years and have absolutely NO idea what went on...
@flakbac P-2 Conclusions : So this is what happens in a society that has polarisation of opposing viewpoints and fragmentation, the police over-reacted to a minority crowd bent on disrupting a legal & traditonal proceeding that is comparable to tearing up 'The Constitution'. Those who would die, or had loved ones die for this country are going to start cracking skulls when something of this nature occurs. Religious like furor brings out the best and worse in ppl, no Q about that at all. Regards.
This clip should be a comedy! I love the sound of skulls cracking. Useless protestors; they've never changed a thing. Go home, clear the streets,and get a job! You want to change things? Vote the useless self absorbed special interest loving politicians out! And who couldn't love good ol' fashion Chicago thug police tactics, you know the kind that get drunk in a bar and beat the snot out of a 90 pound female bartender? If you don't live in Chicago you won't know what I'm talking about!
while what the police did was entirely wrong, the protesters WERE trying to provoke them. Don't get me wrong, I cherish my right to protest, but inciting the riot police to 'kill, kill, kill' isn't exactly peaceful.
@vntiger If you listen closely, they are saying, 'go on, shoot me, kill me, kill, kill, kill'. I'm not trying to say that this was right in any way, or that the actions of police brutality should ever be forgotten - I mean, I've gone to several protests of my own in my day, and the history behind these and many other events of this era are haunting. However, every protester should remember that their protection only goes as far as they remain peaceful. They were inciting a riot, in my opinion.
It's started out as a protest protected by the First Amendment but once it became a riot is wasn't and If the Demonstraitors did something to provoke the police such as shouting Kill Kill Kill or calling them Pigs then they deserve part of the blame. The Police deserve their fair share of the blame because they failed to control themselves and Daley himself deserves the lionshare of the blame because he was the Mayor and the city was his responibility and he failed miserably
@snakes3425 Ummmm... if someone calls me a pig I don't get to bash their head in, and if you look at this a little more, you will find that the cops were also beating reporters and the Assistant US Attorney General told Daley to let the protestors sleep in the parks. He also pulled the Chicago Police from some areas to prevent larger police created riots than there ended up being. His name btw is Wesley Pomeroy.
@vntiger Freedom of speech also has context. If you yell "FIRE" in a crowded theater, and there is no fire, you are not covered by the 1st amendment. Chanting "KILL KILL KILL" is the same exact thing and is inciting a riot. Doesn't matter if they were doing that in Vietnam or not, that was not the place to be chanting that. The 1st amendment protects speech and assembly that does not infringe upon the rights of others. i.e. placing them in danger by creating hysteria.
@brendan129 you do realize the "kill, kill, kill" is referencing daley's quote to "shoot to kill" right? it's kind of a famous event....Then again in the 70s you were probably taught "duck and cover" instead of being educated.
@burneden You do realize, that a) the "Shoot to kill" order was for arsonists during the MLK riots in April. b) Even if it was in reference to that, why was it "Kill Kill Kill" and not "Shoot to kill"? c) Free speech does have it limitations, and rightfully so. Shouting "fire" in a crowded theater and then trying to use free speech as a defense after 10 people were trampled to death won't cut it, so I'll put my money on yelling "kill kill kill" at the police not going over well. Duck and cover!
@hobbitandwife What's missing in the equation is that a number of the inciting protestors were suspected of being "agent provocateurs" or police agents. In the newsreel footage, 1 has to wonder why those doing the taunting were not arrested right away 4 'disorderly conduct." The question is, were they ever arrested? There were likely plenty of undercover agents among the protesters. A lesson is if a protestor is encouraging or doing something illegal & violent ,stay far away from them!
@hobbitandwife In fact, it was the CPD officers who were screaming "kill, kill, klll" as they jumped out of vans on Michigan Ave by the Hilton, furious at the reports they heard of injured police officers that later proved to be spurious. Cops were heard to be shouting vulgar insults as they beat people , pushing, prodding, and then attacking with clubs to the head and backs of peaceful protesters, including beaten into and through a huge plate glass window and beaten while on glass shards.
Prior to the Riot some of the groups had made threats such as throwing nails from over passes, and putting LSD in the water supply, so tensions were already at the breaking point but the event that set the police off was that at a permitted protest in Grant Park someone lowered the American Flag from a statue and replaced it with a Viet Cong Flag either as part of the permitted protest or on their own occord and the police went berzerk and everything went downhill from there
@hobbitandwife ah, great, next time anyone says the words "kill" and "me" together I'll be sure to blow their fucking brains out, as you say it's clearly the logical reaction
@hobbitandwife "kill, kill, shoot to kill" was a direct response to Mayor Daley of Chicago who allegedly told the police officers that they needed to do anything in their power to quell the rioters, including "shoot to kill"--that leaked out and incited the protestors to use that as one of their taunts.
I lived in Chicago. There remains an underlying "thug" mentality there. Blagojevich, Daley, Obama, Emmanuel down to the people on the streets. In this case, the police are the thugs (and most still are there). Nice place to visit, if you have to or for a one-time weekend.
There's a million things to be said on both sides of the story. What happened in Chicago (my birth place) was handled wrong by both sides. A minority of ppl thought they could disrupt the electorial proceedures of a Nation and a independent study called the authority's actions 'A Police Riot'. I speak from a viewpont of experience, my brother Sir Charles raised the VietCong flag on Tom Sawyers Island at Disneyland & got his silly head fractured doing so.
we must always remember to remain non violent.you cant kill fire with fire.
but i know if i was in those moments of 68 i would take down who ever tried to attack me.
.you still have your small cases of police brutality and protesting still goes on.and lets not forget the more recent riots of France and of course everyday in the middle east...im gettin off topic..
my point is stay awake in this time of sleep.love your enemy for its your brother.revolution exists in us everyday.
The amount of tear gas used to suppress the protestors was so great that it eventually made its way to the Hilton Hotel where it disturbed Hubert Humphrey while in his shower. - Wikipedia
The scene from 1:55 to 2:00 is absolutely *chilling*. This footage is totally riveting; no film version could do it justice, this is the *real* deal right here.
@comradebrezhnev I don't agree: I'm no fan of beaurocracy, but this is not what the dream behind the US government is about. THIS is power and control in the hands of those who let it become greater than it was meant to be. The American government, while imperfect and oftentimes more harm than good, was built with good intentions. If we can stay true to the hopes that the founding fathers had for this nation, we'll be alright.
When did we give up the fight?

his 'democracy' is a farce. Whenever protest is disliked by the elite (the real people who run the country) it is suppressed as it would be in most any authoritarian regime. 1968 saw the assassination of many leaders that were against the Vietnam War, against expanding the power of the military industrial complex, and wanted to favor the poor and working poor, and middle classes in this country.The anti war majority was ignored. The good people lost. The empire won out over democracy.

@Dkelly160 Then why didn't we go to war with Stalin? Stalin killed almost 21 million people. We all know human compassion is only an overused pretext which wasn't even used in the days of WWII, the 1940s were the days were you trusted your government and had blind patriotism. We fought Hitler because he fucked with the allies to the breaking point. Freedom of speech as long as it is acceptable right? Home of the free?!?!? Land of the... brave?!?! Land of the coward and oppressed is more like it.
RainbowManification 10 months ago
@RainbowManification Had we listened to General Patton we would have. The underlying reasons for not going to War with Stalin are simple 1)He had helped us dethrone Hitler 2) A war between the U.S. would have been much more longer/costly than both of the 2 World Wars 3) Once nuclear warheads came into the picture, the idea of aggressively attacking the Soviets vanished because it would have led to the annihilation of the entire world 4)They did not ally them selves with a nation that attacked us
Dkelly160 10 months ago
@Dkelly160 In other words we only attack nations/empires/entities that we know we can win against because they are far militaristicly inferior to us? Also the truth is is that somebody always profits from war. The military-industrial complex is alive and well since Eisenhower's leave-of-office speech.
RainbowManification 10 months ago
@RainbowManification Well not exactly...the Japanese and the Nazis weren't necessarily an inferior power actually in some ways they were a little superior in terms of the technology their weapon systems used. However Americans have always been good fighters if it wasn't for war this great country never would have existed so I credit our victory to the resilience and toughness that our troops are bred with. As for profiting from war, yes there is a profit and it is called FREEDOM.
Dkelly160 10 months ago
@RainbowManification Also up until WW1 Americans had a firm belief in Isolationism, had it not been for the rest of world diving into chaos Americans would have stayed out of it. This past century we have learned that what happens over seas will eventually, no matter how long, arrive on our shores. My inclination is that "The best offense is a good defense". In other worlds try not to solve the worlds problems, rather prevent them.

As for superpowers we are the least invasive, imagine what the world would look like if Stalin or Hitler were in charge.
Dkelly160 10 months ago
@RainbowManification Well no, Iraq had over 1 millions troops and were not that much smaller than our own Army. Ours is simply better trained/equipped and it shows that it made all the difference. Toe to toe nobody can match America's military so no matter who we fight we will always be fighting either a slightly or extremely weaker power. So I don't really see the point in your argument.
Dkelly160 10 months ago
@Dkelly160 You just proved my point, Iraq has a way inferior military, we only fight nations were we will suffer minimal damage as possible. Anyhow, what is so bad about not wanting to go to war? I shouldn't have to tell a grown man that unnecessary death is bad.
RainbowManification 10 months ago
@RainbowManification I don't quite know how that proved your point. Being better trained and better equipped is an advantage, however that is not all it takes to win. When the colonists fought the British and defeated them we were out manned/gunned, and far less experienced. The point is that American's understand that unnecessary death is bad, but not all death is unnecessary. In order to protect our freedom and liberties that men, and women have fought for we will have to fight.

However, every protester should remember that their protection only goes as far as they remain peaceful. They were inciting a riot, in my opinion.

It's started out as a protest protected by the First Amendment but once it became a riot is wasn't and If the Demonstraitors did something to provoke the police such as shouting Kill Kill Kill or calling them Pigs then they deserve part of the blame. The Police deserve their fair share of the blame because they failed to control themselves and Daley himself deserves the lionshare of the blame because he was the Mayor and the city was his responibility and he failed miserably

He also pulled the Chicago Police from some areas to prevent larger police created riots than there ended up being. His name btw is Wesley Pomeroy.
corgi4u 10 months ago
@vntiger Freedom of speech also has context. If you yell "FIRE" in a crowded theater, and there is no fire, you are not covered by the 1st amendment. Chanting "KILL KILL KILL" is the same exact thing and is inciting a riot. Doesn't matter if they were doing that in Vietnam or not, that was not the place to be chanting that. The 1st amendment protects speech and assembly that does not infringe upon the rights of others. i.e. placing them in danger by creating hysteria.

@burneden You do realize, that a) the "Shoot to kill" order was for arsonists during the MLK riots in April. b) Even if it was in reference to that, why was it "Kill Kill Kill" and not "Shoot to kill"? c) Free speech does have it limitations, and rightfully so. Shouting "fire" in a crowded theater and then trying to use free speech as a defense after 10 people were trampled to death won't cut it, so I'll put my money on yelling "kill kill kill" at the police not going over well. Duck and cover!

@hobbitandwife What's missing in the equation is that a number of the inciting protestors were suspected of being "agent provocateurs" or police agents. In the newsreel footage, 1 has to wonder why those doing the taunting were not arrested right away 4 'disorderly conduct." The question is, were they ever arrested? There were likely plenty of undercover agents among the protesters. A lesson is if a protestor is encouraging or doing something illegal & violent ,stay far away from them!

@hobbitandwife In fact, it was the CPD officers who were screaming "kill, kill, klll" as they jumped out of vans on Michigan Ave by the Hilton, furious at the reports they heard of injured police officers that later proved to be spurious. Cops were heard to be shouting vulgar insults as they beat people , pushing, prodding, and then attacking with clubs to the head and backs of peaceful protesters, including beaten into and through a huge plate glass window and beaten while on glass shards.

Prior to the Riot some of the groups had made threats such as throwing nails from over passes, and putting LSD in the water supply, so tensions were already at the breaking point but the event that set the police off was that at a permitted protest in Grant Park someone lowered the American Flag from a statue and replaced it with a Viet Cong Flag either as part of the permitted protest or on their own occord and the police went berzerk and everything went downhill from there
