Funny, without the cameras they would have beat his ass. It is reprehensible how police are allowed to treat citizens, these days. Truly.

You fucking serious? John Oliver is epic.

This episode was hilarious. The Daily Show didn't do such a great job this year on Anti-G20 protests because everyone was too busy shitting themselves about the burning cop cars and so-called-violence. And, I mean, John Oliver is awesome.

The fact that Jon Stewart is not willing to tell the difference between anarchist provocateurs and honest citezen protesters (in june 18 2010 episode) is disappointing, to say the least. I admired him during the bush ages, but those days are gone.

oh YES...he is!

Ah yes, FCB. (Us lot need to devise a secret handshake.)

I found this video about half a minute before I saw the real promo clip for it before the show. I was waiting for this all week.

I was downtown with critical mass (150+ people riding bikes) and we got police escorts. I was also in the mob of people being terrorized by the cops.

Treated very different in different situations. Police are just part of the machine.

If I was one of the cops I would beat the fucking shit out of his head then shot everyone else around. Then pray to god someone posted it on the internet.

They would not have if the cameras were gone. I walked the whole trip downtown and no cops beat anyone up. Even the guy next to me (anyone remember the guy with Clown Nose? with the loudspeaker?) talking much worse to cops without cameras around. Perhaps without a thousand witnesses they might do it tho :)
