4. Fucking Pigs.....
Why is it that brute force is the only option. I hope that they'll be an investigation into " Police brutality " when Obama gets into office. Man we sure need it !! This fucking " zero tolerance " is fascist bullshit. We need a professional PD !!

12. You may be right
They looked very unorganized! Plus I don't know the wisdom of standing and blocking traffic and expecting not to get your ass kicked.Pretty dangerous place to picket! IMO
