Look at this video and tell me you see these police as anything other than jackbooted thugs.

Unbelievable. Actually, almost practically unbelievable. If you made movie villains act this way people would complain about how unrealistic the behavior was. I mean this is something that'd be embarrassing in China. Breaking up a violin recital in a park.

How can anyone look at this and go "yeah, this is what Washington and Jefferson had in mind"? I don't think even the British would have gone after people having a violin memorial.

Apparently the police - by their own accounts - choked him and then dosed him with Ketamine. He died. Ketamine. Fucking brilliant. Stormtroopers are smarter than that.
