Big brave masked men festooned with body armor and space age technology, carrying automatic weapons in order to protect themselves against a bunch of elderly men and women who are against violence.
I wonder what they would do if they had to handle a situation like the Rodney King riots? Oh yeah that's right, they'd run in the opposite direction.
"The real deal is this: the royalty controlling the court, the ones with the power, the ones with the ability to make a difference, with the ability to change our course, the ones who will live in infamy if we pass the tipping points, are the captains of industry, CEOs in fossil fuel companies such as EXXON/Mobil, automobile manufacturers, utilities, all of the leaders who have placed short-term profit above the fate of the planet and the well-being of our children." - James Hansen
I don't know why local police give a damn about what people are protesting about. Purely unprofessional for them to even care, but some protest topics just hit a nerve, I guess.
All that armor they are wearing. They should just put on Star Wars storm trooper outfits. I think they invented those costumes first.

They do it for the psychological effect. They always wear black, appear as large as possible (armor helps with that), and they are made to look as much alike as possible in order to appear as an impersonal machine.
Their armor isn't totally bulletproof.
I dont see this incident as a bad thing. Some people need to see how the pigs act in real life and not from hollywood. So not only are the people involved affected, but now their family, co-workers and friends know, the people that see the video know, and word spreads from there.
The pigs lose every time they pull shit like this.

Yes they do.
Thinking on the star wars costume, a bunch of people should show up at one of these protests dressed like that to mock the cops. That might be kinda cool. Make a media event out of it where viewers can contrast the Hollywood stormtroopers with the real thing.

Yes and no. The pigs lose personally as it makes them more disliked and distrusted in the community, but their masters win, because the underlying reason for this behavior is to intimidate the general population and keep them from rising up and protesting government criminality.
"Believe nothing merely because you have been told it. Do not believe what your teacher tells you merely out of respect for the teacher. But whatsoever, after due examination and analysis, you find to be kind, conducive to the good, the benefit, the welfare of all beings - that doctrine believe and cling to, and take it as your guide. ~ Gautama Siddhartha The Buddha
