Chicago Police Take "Trophy" Photo with Arrested University of Pittsburgh Student at G-20 Summit

On Friday evening, September 25, 2009, the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) campus was the setting for a massive police riot involving numerous law enforcement agencies from across the country - after this after the G-20 Summit had ended. Police beat, gassed, blasted and arrested more than 100 people, including Pitt student Kyle Kramer, who was forced to kneel in front of police for an "Abu Ghraib" style photograph.

How nice,  the fascist pigs have a trophy. It makes me so proud to be an American.

@Verm24 He was a Univ. of Pittsburgh student. There's no doubt about that. He made the mistake of thinking that because the G20 was over, the G20 police would be gone too. He went out for a pizza and happened upon these cops.

@Verm24

No he was a student just about and about and was at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Lawyers said it was be an easily deal and the police force was supposed to give him a settlement but they have yet to pay up.

i thought the guy kneeling was an undercover cop playing around. i'm not sure though. i'm just surprised it's not a N*GGER on his knees.

[Verm24]

Or the guy that was handcuffed was an undercover....
