This police brutality is not acceptable.
There's footage of police officers beating Iraq War veterans for no reason in Occupy Oakland. Many of them were not even part of the protest. Do police officers have the right to violently attack peaceful protesters?

Nope. However, I guess this woman could sue the city for unreasonable force but I doubt a judge and/or jury would give her much money.

I've seen many of these all over the internet.

The most disturbing one was one of an 81 year old women who got sprayed in the face.

There's just something wrong about this.

The "bobbies" look like really animated (as in the movies) FBI agents. They look like they're going to kill someone/ LOTS of people. And that lady.... Jeezum crow! I have never seen so many policemen armed that heavily in one place before. There's no serial killer on the loose. Thank-you, Carlisle, for leaving this lovely image in my head. Just kidding. But honestly, this is totally against human rights.
