RNC 2008 Peaceful marchers get gassed

During the final day of the RNC in St. Paul protesters were directed to leave the area and ended up being trapped in by riot police. Clearly, this was a peaceful march that ended a different way as a result of the authorities.

In the end, every person in this video would be trapped on the Marion St bridge and arrested. Close to 350 arrested.

@Kurzhal09 Wrong. Rights are granted to us by God. The Bill of Rights tells the Federal Government which Rights are not to be infringed upon. The Declaration of Independence does list another Right. Read the preamble. You'll see it as plain as day. It starts with, "That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to..." Now go and find it and read the rest. Get educated.

@Jarobulian Rights are granted by the Bill of Rights not the Declaration.

This is depressing. Can't even peaceful protest in America.

Until we rise up and excercise our Right granted to us by the Preamble of the Declaration of Independence, this won't change. It will get worse.

People should also look into the Miami 2003 WTO protests.

for instance: Miami Police Shot Protester, then laugh about it. @ watch?v=G63FEamhpA0
