The TRUTH! - The Real Footage of the El Centro Student Protest

[hotfirespitter88]

This is amazing

[sman112191]

haha he's a strong mofo how many cops did it take to cuff him

[andiemerry]

@suzyq871 you're an idiot.

[AmericasMaji]

Finally got to hear the music bedded with the video. I like it! Good job!

[suzyq871]

This video is a lie!The video has been cropped by the author.If the author wants to post the whole video without cropping it would be nice.

[PinstripeProductions]

@suzyq871 Wow, really? Cropped by the author? First off, hello, nice to meet you. I'm the author; and my question to you is, how can one crop and edit a real time situation? In order for the author (myself) to give the audience the full close situation, I needed to get in the position to give the viewer…well a presentable view. For you to sit at your screen claiming faux, questions your perception of the situation. I haven't displayed any bias opinions. That's the art of proper journalism.

[suzyq871]

@PinstripeProductions -My question to you Mr author is why did you not put the part in the video where the crowd starting shoving the the police officers and the part where the young man in the black t-shirt and the red bandanna pushed a police officer and shoved his way through the police line. Where is the part where he was interfering with police duties?

[PinstripeProductions]

@suzyq871 If I've missed so much of the event, then where was your camcorder and post? And its "Ms. Author;" this conversation is finished.

[flashback171]

look i am all for protest but seriously that man was obviously resisting and the video does not show why he was being arrested in the first place. this video is strictly propaganda.

[andiemerry]

@flashback171 He actually didn't even get arrested, they "detained" him until the end of the protest, thinking since he was seemingly the "leader" of the protest they could take him down and it would stop. (which it only grew strongerand persisted) But yea, he did admit afterwards that he shouldn't have resisted so much lol but simple fact is he was NOT in trouble AT ALL, HE BROKE NO LAWS! (of course, they only admitted it afterwards & only to stephen) the worst thing he did was use a megaphone.

[FlorTinaGonzalez]

This was bull it was completely unnecessary to use that much force from the police... they completely overpassed it... I dont know if yall noticed, but they came and took the guy from behind.... fucked up...he was walking and without a notice they surprised him.... they say its a free country, and we have freedom of speech... this just goes to show how much bull shit the government lies about..

[poppy5394]

He later failed to identify himself when escorted away from the location. The Dallas Police Department ensures the safety of all persons involved in protest. The actions of a single protestor jeopardized the safety of the officers, protestors, and non-participants.  This incident was entirely avoidable if he had taken a moment and listen to the instruction of officers to ensure proper safe-guards for all involved.

[AmericasMaji]

@poppy5394 I was there. As to the charge of failing to identify himself, I cannot address that. As to the alleged assault on the police officer. It did not happen.

[poppy5394]

The gentleman seen in the video was detained for assaulting a police officer and failing to heed the instructions of officers regarding the protest. Also, leading any group to blocking passageways and sidewalks is illegal. In the spirit of community cooperation he was field released and not charged. He was also detained at the Dallas City Council meeting the week prior.

[RinnosukeETQW]

anyway we can get this WITHOUT the music? it's highly annoying.

[AmericasMaji]

Thank you for sending me the video link. Very good video. Well done. I have posted it to FB (for what that is worth) along with my story on what I saw at the rally on Wednesday.

I commend all who participated in this rally. I was very impressed with the students who kept it peaceful, and kept the rally going even after Steven was arrested. Very good job.

@AmericasMaji

This is out of order. if this was in UK we would turn the country upside down,

So much for "land of the free" 

[AmericasMaji]

@theracemixer That is what I have been trying to tell you for years now. The USA is heading towards serious trauma. Based on historical patterns we will either take the path that leads to another World war, or we will take a path that leads to Civil War. From what I am seeing, the right is itching for a Civil War 'cause THE LAW and GOD are on their side. That is what Hitler told Germany, too. You know where that ended up.

[theracemixer]

@AmericasMaji

I know you've been telling me the same thing which i agree with but there is just one problem since most people are too stupid and won't change how/what can some of us do to befit from what is to come and leave the problem to the fools ?

[AmericasMaji]

@theracemixer I've come to the conclusion that there is no stopping it. Not sure what to call it. As my own background is Business, Technology, and Criminology, I am not sure what to classify what we are seeing. The corruption of absolute powerful few over the lives of the many? It is flashing all over North Africa and the Near East, around the Med to Greece, and some are predicting that it will spread into the heart of the EU. To some lesser degree, it is here in the US, too.

[AmericasMaji]

@theracemixer The only real question is how is it going to manifest itself here in the US.

[theracemixer]

@AmericasMaji

Well i think this video is one solution

[TheDarkSaint1]

I'm from MVC and one of out officials sent this to all the teachers to show them what might happen to our campus. This is bullshit man. If we don't fight the cut backs then who will? It starts with one and it could spread to all.

[alchemy2day]

Deana? is this seriously you?!

[stealerofthesoulkat]

NICE!

[aaliyahwhitmire]

So why were people taken to jail?

[stealerofthesoulkat]

@aaliyahwhitmire

They were released once the protest died down.

You tell us. Watch the footage.

[PinstripeProductions]

@PoisonAppleProd

Thank You My Sister! I think I may start utilizing YouTube again. :)

[SidIcarus]

What the fuck Steven?

[AndeeBlack09]

this is highly disturbing and some phone calls need to be made to the DPD as well as these media stations for their lack of accurate coverage. how can the supreme court recently rule in favor free speech in regards to fred phelps and WBC, but our local government is chastising students?!?!
