Freeze Flash Mob & Police Brutality - Unedited Cop Punch

As requested this version shows previously unreleased footage and an unedited shot of the police punching the shopper and breaking her ribs!

CodePink Austin, along with allies from Veteran's for Peace and Women in Black staged a Don't Buy War "freeze" at Barton Creek Mall on Saturday, December 3rd. The strategically chosen mall location was between the Santa photo station and the Gamestop store, which prominently advertises the 'Modern Warfare 3' video game.

The goals were to raise awareness about the continuing wars on Iraq and Afghanistan, to educate shoppers about the costs (both human and economic) of the wars, and to dissuade parents from purchasing war toys. The creative action was well received by shoppers, and several veterans approached the group to thank us. All was peaceful until mall security and APD arrived, and an APD officer brutally attacked a young woman who had joined the group spontaneously. She was seriously beaten and ended up with three cracked ribs and bruises all over her body!

That pig sure did look like he enjoyed grabbing that girl and pushing her around. Deviant scum. Wow, sorry, but this made me really angry, just grabbing and shoving her for videotaping?

"You can't videotape" says the pig.

You have to listen to the pig police because they have superior fire power and will not hesitate to kill you if ordered and even if they fuck up they will get off scott free.

Disgusting
