New Orleans Police Attack Peaceful March at St. Bernard

Residents of the St. Bernard Housing Development served food and danced to the music of the Hot 8 Brass Band in a 'Party With a Purpose' to protest the planned demolition of 4,600 units of public housing in New Orleans.

New Orleans police attacked the peaceful, festive event without provocation and dragged away a journalist and two protesters.

Footage from Jacqueline Soohen and Richard Rowley of Big Noise Films, Michael Boedigheimer and Luisa Doucas of JoLu Productions, and the Yes Men.

The difference was her ass went to jail.

Maybe they were arrested for playing that annoying, shitty jazz that anyone with lips seems to HAVE to play all damn time down there.

And yes, mr strong black man with a mouth- you just strongly and loudly couldn't shut the hell up, could you? If you were a strong, quiet, black man with a little sense you might have kept out of the back seat.

Not a lot of patience on either side...

You are under arrest for not kissing my ass. I am a dum cop and i will stay stupid all my life.

He says to her ''Your under arrest. You're not a police officer'' He pretend to be a cop but he has no uniform to prove it. What is the difference between him and her.

It's disgraceful that these policemen are given the responsibility to protect the public. They should be stripped of their badge and charged with corruption. The people in power in New Orleans should hang their heads in shame. Land of the free...my ass.

'Peaceful' thanks to the person who decided to cut out or not film what really happen that resulted in getting arrested. Selective filming at it's finest.

Oh, and if the whitey activists DO move into the projects with the darkies, it won't be long before the darkies show their own "appreciation" for whitey's help, by robbing and stealing from them.
