Occupy Phoenix Police Brutality

So much happened the first day of Occupy Phoenix that is not in this video. This is only a quick summery of the arrests. One thing that concerns me is that there are places in this world so oppressed that the Occupy movement would be shut down by police. Those places are N. Korea, China and Iraq. Phoenix Arizona may be also be one of those places.

so where is the police brutality? I didn't see anyone get beat or tazed....arresting someone is not police violence....enforcing the law is not police violence...plain simple fact is you guys are soft pussies.

@bigpoppa12311 If you don't call dragging a girl by her neck Police Brutality then I guess there is no point discussing anything with you. I even slowed it down for people like you so it is cyrstel clear but don't worry about it. I'll leave you to your name calling and ignorance instead.

If you all are looking for work, McDonalds is hiring. You all make America look weak. Quit crying over spilled milk and just become a politician if you want things to change. That's how our forefathers made this country.

@deganlink 1) the vast majority of occupiers held jobs. 2) there are not even close to enough openings at Mcdonalds for the large number of unemployed. Get a clue.

@cowgirlchrissy - TO SHRUG OFF police violence by saying that officers are just “doing their job”, is to ignore the fact that their job is to OPPRESS!

Watching that young woman being pulled back by the neck (under mandible) looks not only painful, but possibly deleterious.

Why am I not surprise people who deny brutality bash liberals and hippies, even if they were disobeying commands there's not excuse.

[luvatoyota]

Hippies should leave arizona

[dadhadit]

That's bullshit it is obviously a peaceful protest. this gentleman is solely responsible

no one else can be held accountable for these police officers hostile actions against public if this occurs you simply cannot shirk y our responsibility and throw any variables against peaceful protesters, there are no variables to the truth it just is.

@reven676 Agreed! This is not brutality! They were removing people from the line who were disobeying commands. We can't hear what they are saying to that woman- she refused to move, they moved her. Brutality? Please, they moved her across the line. Was she kicked? Hit? Sprayed? Nope. Quit overreacting!
