Uh, yes, we are. At least those of us willing to pay attention - try YouTube, "Boston Occupy Wall Street" Like this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Swf5...eature=related

Or, Occupy New York, like this:

But of course, you've already dismissed it as, "made up". Even though the mainstream media isn't showing most of it, but yet it's all over YouTube due to civilian media.

Ignorance is bliss, I guess.

This is the evidence? Lol
Of all the protests all over the country this is what you have?

Did the police not clearly give ample warning in Boston? One guy falls down? So it is ok to not obey the police now? Please give me a break. The mainstream media isnt showing it because it is hardly newsworthy.

What's the emoticon for, "I simply refuse to consider any evidence that is contrary to the opinion I have already formed" ?

Pot meet kettle. Seriously? You think there is cases of police brutality in that Boston video? Arresting people that resist isnt always pretty but when the police tell you to go you are supposed to go. Pretty simple. Are the police just supposed to walk away and not do their job? Are they supposed to do the Vulcan nerve pinch and render them helpless?

When a protester is standing still, not resisting arrest, you place handcuffs on them, take them by the elbow, and walk them to the paddy wagon. If they are sitting quietly or passively relaxing, you handcuff them, and two police drag them by the elbows to the paddy wagon.

You do NOT charge into them in a group, waving your batons, hitting them when there is zero resistance, throwing them to the ground, and sitting on them, then dragging them across the ground to the paddy wagon.

As is visible in multiple videos of the "Boston Cops vs Veterans for Peace" videos out there.

Whenever even one person is injured or worse during a peaceful protest, it's newsworthy! We have taken the moral high ground in condemning crackdowns on peaceful demonstrations throughout the world yet posters here want to rationalize same when it occurs here...sure, the death tole hasn't started...yet. But history tells us it may at any time...whenever common folk take to the streets to demand their rights, the status quo reacts the same...the copper bosses didn't hire thugs to brutalize workers, Joe Hill wasn't railroaded, Dr King was a Commie troublemaker and Bull Connor a loyal civil servant, Kent State and Jackson State were the fault of radical troublemakers etc etc...

Give me a break. When you are repeatedly warned that you are to disperse, you are supposed to disperse. We have laws in this country that are to be followed so that we dont have riots. You cant complain about one set of laws when you dont follow another. If you are injured resisting arrest then it is your fault. Nothing in that video looked like police brutality.

I think I need a drink because I agree with you.

So if someone is accused of breaking a misdemeanor law, and stands there passively without resistance as the police come to arrest them, the police are entitled to beat them in the process of the arrest, because they are of course guilty?

Holy ****ing crap.

As I said, the response is always the same. Bull issued "lawful" orders to disperse, then resorted to firehoses, dogs and clubs. The National Guard at Kent issued "lawful" orders then moved on to random killing as did the State Police at Jackson. There is never one side that is 100% to blame or is blameless, but power does not equate to "right" and the laws of man are only as morally justified as they are fair to all.

What should they do? How would you deal with it? Comparing Kent state and the videos Riot posted is laughable. How would you deal with a situation where people intentionally bring about confrontation by not following police orders?
