you have the right to protest, but do it with respect, not acting like an idiot blocking traffic in the street. Protest on the sidewalk like the cop said and get your word out.
The whole world IS watching. And for all you people that think this is right, go ahead and support your babysitters with batons. This is pure evil, let people think and believe what they want and keep these fucking animals out of peoples way.

Yes, the whole world is watching you swear, push and ignore police's orders... I pay them to keep my streets safe. They are the law, you listen to them! Simple as that!
Haha complied? He shoved the cop back after not moving back onto the sidewalk as requested. The protestors problem? His hand inadvertently slipped up the cops jacket and hit him in the chin/neck. While not hard, it was more than enough reason to arrest the protestor.
Ummm, has anybody else been noticing the government shit? protest, National Defense Authorization Act, and proposed internet censoring??? damn... don't we have a constitution?
Dumb protesters. They don't follow simple directions and insult/curse at/push the police and get surprised and yell "police "brutality" when the police react with violence. smh
@cap5t2in27 I agree with you 100%. THey keep cursing at the cops and push them around... Some people just don't know that cops represent the law........ Real police brutality is the UC Davis pepper spray but not this...
@cap5t2in27 you have to be pretty stupid not to understand that the people are exercising their Natural Right to peaceably assemble and protests against a corrupt government that no longer works for the interest of the people it was put in place to represent, but rather for the interest of large corporations and the banking cartel. And when the police show up to remove you, they are violating that Right. Those harassing the police are infiltrators hired by the state/city to incite violence.
@marlene1374 You have to be pretty stupid to support your argument with conspiracies. I could easily say that most of the idiots protesting are just that: idiots, most likely doing it because they couldn't find a full time job and are jealous of the successful and gather/cry about it all day, chanting "police brutality" like zombies whenever they get the chance.

He raised a hand to the cop, ANY COP IN ANY SITUATION will throw your butt to the ground just to make double sure you aren't carrying anything. The cop is watching out for himself over you, its no secret most people hate cops... I just don't understand what people don't get about that. Never raise a hand up to a cop's face....
this is the most fucking annoying video iv seen u guys make america look worse then what it is why go on the street and abuse cops what u think was going to happen
Kidnapping is the taking away or transportation of a person against that person's will a confinement without legal authority. So, if anyone is arrest unlawfully (as in they didn't actually commit a crime - peaceful protest is not a crime - than its kidnapping. This will probably have a people arguing, but I will state it anyways.
When I say peaceful protest I do not mean anyone actually causing a problem with violence - the 'anarchists' in Rome for example.
Just because you do not get out of the way for a police officer, especially when they are forcing you to move out a spot you were already at, doesn't make you an unpeaceful protester.
It's sad how much people need to shit on each other in their comments when it goes no where and people could be using that time to discuss their opinions on the video and thus break down what each person thinks could be done in order to fix this situation. Damn right anybody saying they are 'peaceful protesters' and then go and smack a cop isnt being peaceful, but the majority of the Occupy Wallstreet are being peaceful. Don't let one or two people's actions make you ignorant.
Im pretty sure that guy was on the sidewalk already. And im pretty sure attacking one person in a crowd yelling, "fuck you" would help the situation at all.
The people saying "what do you expect they were causing a ruckus" and shit like that are fucking retarded. The Police are supposed to be here to serve the public and they need to be held accountable as much as, or more then, the average civilian.

Excessive force used on Non-Violent protestors should be handle with zero tolerance.

Stopping traffic? The traffic I see being stopped is the Police traffic trying to come in and clear the protesters - who have every right to be there - out.
@HollaTheDuck2 Peaceful protesting is a lack of violence. Since when was a lack of compliance and using your vocal cords considered violent? The policeman lost his temper and took it out on a peaceful protester, that's not profesional and ineffective at quelling any kind of protest; it is what escalates it.
@HollaTheDuck2 I might not support the protesters, but you have to go through a major moral meltdown to think that its okay to hit someone with a stick for insulting you. Wearing a blue costume doesn't make it okay to assault people.
Respond to this video... not true, the guy was off the sidewalk and sucker punched the cop in the jaw, what else could the cop do but to take the guy down. I was there and saw the idiot hit the cop and then was surpised with the cop reacted to violence. STUPID!!!
When the police comes to you and tell you how to live your life everyday, you'll always be fuckign tired, or if they kick your fucking ass or one of your kids' ass just because "you don't follow their law.", you'll hate them so much.. Fucking idiot, fuck the law, we need our freedom, we don't need the police, use your fucking head, the police don't give a FUCK ABOUT YOU OR YOUR LIFE. As long as if you don't follow their law, they will kick your ass. Is THAT A GOOD THING?
@iLittleSuzie "police don't give a FUCK ABOUT YOU OR YOUR LIFE. As long as if you don't follow their law, they will kick your ass. Is THAT A GOOD THING?"
Sure it is --- you know they will kick your ass if you don't comply -- so most smart people acutally comply --- not the cops fault some people choose to do things that hard way
Thatcop turned a civil offense if any into a felonious assault..shit agrravated assault with a deadly weapon when he went in with that baton..These have to be the same G20 SOPs being brought in to do the work the local police won't do..The people should have overwhelmed those criminals and aressted those brainwashed assholes..
Man what are these boot lickers talking about? it's clear the cop went on a rampage and shoved people onto the sidewalk..natural instinct is to shove back when some loser pushs you from behind. if there was a car coming and it was an act of safety then cool..but that cop was out of line and needs to be fired. This is the beginning for the end of their jobs as they were trained to perform. This is going to esculate so they better realze who their real boss is: WE THE PEOPLE. stand 2gether united
didnt saw the sparks comming from that guy? he sure lightend something on and for a policeman you need to be aware of everything, so also that it could be a weapon...
I do understand when you guys say that it's illegal to block the road.
But what is so special about the police that you can't touch them? The guy who got beaten up didn't punch the cop - he barely touched him if at all. Instead they had several cops beating the guy -- and that *is* police brutality.
@NSMeta bottom line, you do not hit a man with a gun; a cop. If you do not know that simple rule, do not go to protests because you'll get the shit beat out of you every time.
apart from attacking the cop they need to move them off the street their job is to keep them safe and no matter how hard he beat him up it would hut]rt more if the truck ran over him
Fuckin police. If this was iran, syria or egypt, the US would have slammed them and critisized their country's freedom, but this is the USA. and this video proves the US being same shit, different smell to the rest of the countries.
Give me a break...if I was that cop and some asshole blindsided me w/a punch to the jaw, I would have pull out my gun & shot the stupid jerk. I think the cop actually used his head, he removed a violent asshole from the crowd that could have got many hurt. Good job SFPD, when I go to a protest for a worthy cause, the last thing I want to see are all the thugs that show up to start shit and do not care what they do and who get hurt!
@drgdrf He was on the sidewalk being yelled at to get on the sidewalk, then pushed back as a response to being pushed by the cop with a riot stick. The policeman's actions weren't justified in my opinion.
@drgdrf right how could you miss the clear assault CAUGHT ON CAMERA FOR THE WORLD TO SEE?? ignorant morons, they were just doing their job and in a riot, when you assault an officer, how do you expect not to get put down to taste the concrete..... Good job to the cop who restrained and controlled the situation before it got out of hand.
In what city is it legal to stand in the middle of the street and block traffic...? Idiots. The REAL Occupy Wall Street people want change in the politicians and corporate lobbyists. These clowns just want to provoke Police then cry about it online.
protesters are friggin idiots, you guys push them to the limits giving them a hard time then all of a sudden when you decide to push them back (and you know theyll react back) you guys are all screaming AHH POLICE BRUTALITY like fliiping robots. protesters are idiots most of the time, including this situation. end of story, dumbass
The police never did anything wrong, retard protestors standing in the street disrupting traffic and ignoring the police commands to get off the road, which they could have tagged every single one of them with multiple charges. Why didn't they hit more of those people for being retards. They all looked like drug users anyways, knock some sense into them, because they never once yelled anything that made any sense.
The SF police didn't do anything wrong. The guy was saying "Fuck you" also known as fighting words which gives them the right to arrest him. Also, the guy pushed the officer back. That's a BIG no no.
I've lived in SF for many years. The shit that the cops have to put up with here is off the charts. There are protests and accusations against cops EVERY FUCKING DAY. And most of the protestors are total assholes and vagrants who will prey on the weak to steal or beat people up or vandalize. This is just more of the same bullshit from the usual people.
It's the police's job to get people out of the middle of the street. They are blocking traffic and are a nuisance to those who are trying to commute through the area. These protesters are ignorant of how civil protesting works.
well all the people are screaming and judging by the darkness its quite late and people try to have a nice evening at home while the kids are in bed. You guys protesting that late is wrong. Get off the streets after dark and get off the streets during rush hours. If you are disturbing peace its a reason to arrest every single one of you. Walking away from the police officer (even with hands in the air) is resisting arrest. Police is the law, just listen to them don't try to act tough.
@atreyukicks shut the fuck up you apathetic little faggot, why dont you go suck steve jobs terminal erection you pathetic little consumer bitch?
you're fucking worthless, police are not the law, they enforce the law, and they also readily abuse their power, if you have a complaint about noise, then go ask the protesters to be quiet, they'll listen
you are a sad little sheep, run along and spend the rest of your meaningless life working for a massive corporation that can replace you instantly
@MammalAnonymous a) coming off as such an angry person swearing so much makes no one take you seriously.
b) That's how life is, some of us are just smarter than others and accept that many things aren't fair and screaming in the middle of the street has never changed anything nor will it start to change anything today. Get in line and live life like all of us sheep are.
seriously! the guy that got dealt with by the police deserved it. standing there yelling F you to the police and then pushing back when an officer pushes you off the street is not peaceful. these are people just waiting for an officer to use justified force so they can scream that it was police brutality. i agree with what these protests are about but keep it on the sidewalks and keep it peaceful.
Did anybody else see the sparks that happen to be flying when the cop hit the guy and all the other sparks that flew as he was being arrested? What was on fire and is that what caused the cop to single him out? I'm asking, not trying to make any judgments as to right or wrong.
They were in the street. The cops told them to get off the street and onto the sidewalk. They kept cursing out the cops. What the FUCK did you expect them to do? Protesters are brainless cattle. They are entitled douchebags who think they are right and everyone else is wrong.
I'm with the police on this one. The world IS watching, and you all looked like a bunch of idiots in this video. Well done. You guys argue about protesting against the people that are screwing the cops too. Well, you guys aren't making their lives any easier either. Put yourselves in their shoes and all the added stress they have to put up with now with you all out there, especially when you won't listen and act like morons, as witnessed here. Hypocrites.
The guy pushed the cop... The second you put your hands on a police officer they then have the right to use force (including, but not limited to, batons, pepper spray, and in some cities stun guns). Between that and the obscenities being screamed at the officer is it any surprise that he got molly-whopped?
According to state laws, what the cop did was 100% legal, there's not really anything to talk about here. In most cities he would've gotten it worse than he did here.
@ 0:21 protestors appear to be intentionally blocking a street cleaning crew and a city buss, possibly civilian traffic off camera as well. @0:56 some idiot lays down in the street. I won't say what the police did was justified but I will say this was a stupid, pointless, and dangerous activity that should not have happened in a peaceful protest. Sorry dude, street cleaners aren't tanks. You can't obstruct the flow of regular traffic as part of protest. Don't hurt the cause.
Like the UK, more and more repressive laws that people must abide by are being forced on the citizens, to be able to control and supress them. When you brutalise peaceful protest and criminalise every move, you create deep hate, violent revolutions and radicalizations. The West is really being exposed to be as bad as any Pariah state. It's all gonna end in civil wars. All because of the wealthy evil colluding criminal scum trying to dominate & serve corporations, Banks, etc.
Awesome! Maybe instead of camping out on the sidewalk like the stupid hippies that you are, you could get a job, work, study or do something to be productive in America instead of feeling like people who work hard owe you something.
Yes, the cops are all "high and mighty" that we have to roll out the red carpet and shut our mouths when they are near. What could possibly go wrong with that?
Let me get this straight...while telling the protestors to get on the sidewalk they beat someone into the middle of the street in the name of safety????? They should all be fired
@Socketline What does putting your hand on a stranger have to do with anything? You just committed a fallacy. If you touch a cop, AT ALL, it is almost always assault.
I love how the same people who preach "FREE SPEECH," hit the spam button on all the comments they don't agree with. They all hate capitalism until they get the money. Every turn your paycheck back in? Didn't think so.
You're blind if you don't think the cop made the first contact. He clearly pushed two people that were just standing there..and the kid that got pushed reacted to push back. And thats clearly a cigarette. Stop trying to justify the asshole police.
Idiots! The police force is part of the 99%.I can't even listen to these morons. Can anyone please tell me exactly what yelling obscenities does to advance the cause?
I say again. THE POLICE ARE PART OF THE 99%. Even as we fight them, we fight FOR them. Much love to all my brothers on the West Coast, but smarten up.
Cops have no reason to even be pushing them or talking shit to them so them saying "fuck you" is not even a big deal nor should it be a reason for the cops to attack them. We have free speech and a right to protest. They should be there to watch to make sure there is no violence or vandalism but instead they are there to enforce unconstitutional laws that destroy the rights of the people. They swore an oath to the people that they would not be used to suppress them and yet here we are.
everybody's watching but too bad nobody really cares.....

@HollaTheDuck2 Peaceful protesting is a lack of violence. Since when was a lack of compliance and using your vocal cords considered violent? The policeman lost his temper and took it out on a peaceful protester, that's not profesional and ineffective at quelling any kind of protest; it is what escalates it.

I do understand when you guys say that it's illegal to block the road.
But what is so special about the police that you can't touch them? The guy who got beaten up didn't punch the cop - he barely touched him if at all. Instead they had several cops beating the guy -- and that *is* police brutality.

Get off the streets after dark and get off the streets during rush hours. If you are disturbing peace its a reason to arrest every single one of you. Walking away from the police officer (even with hands in the air) is resisting arrest. Police is the law, just listen to them don't try to act tough.

Cops have no reason to even be pushing them or talking shit to them so them saying "fuck you" is not even a big deal nor should it be a reason for the cops to attack them. We have free speech and a right to protest. They should be there to watch to make sure there is no violence or vandalism but instead they are there to enforce unconstitutional laws that destroy the rights of the people. They swore an oath to the people that they would not be used to suppress them and yet here we are.
