Dustin (@2lesslegs) gets arrested.
Much love everyone. They arrested me on site and let me go with my arrest paperwork and court date. Tore my rotator cuff in my shoulder tho while trying to break my arm, because apparently I need two sets of cuffs; metal and zip ties

(7,404 posts)And rightly so. So I would caution against the use of the P-word lest we look like a hypocrite.

(4,249 posts)If they are, there might be some merit in your comment. Not to mention that only a particularly odious subset of the police perpetrated this obscenity.

(7,024 posts)and worldwide. Did they fucking think he was going to run away ? Sure let's rough up a guy in a wheel chair, hurry get the pepper spray he's resisting. And let's go media and get the identities of these fine "cops" or whoever they are. They should be ashamed and names made public before trump gives them a medal.

(15,668 posts)one evening while observing an Occupy protest. Exactly the same. A young man placed one foot on the street and was instantly and brutally taken down, slammed face first onto the pavement by two police in full riot gear who then wrenched his arms behind his back to handcuff before yanking him to his feet and dragging him to a paddy wagon. They virtually reacted with force immediately when one foot struck the pavement. Im not sure he wasnt forced off-balance by the crowd behind him and only stepped down to avoid falling into the street. The Portland police struck me as armed, militaristic thugs acting brutally and deliberately that evening. .... Its no wonder the protests grow.
