Too tired to keep reading, but it sounds like shit's getting ugly. Boston's "expansion camp" was raided by police in riot gear...

From what I've heard the arrests were a result of a group of anarchists that came in yesterday and attempted to set up the "expansion camp" in an area where the city didn't want them camping out in. Word is the cops were notified by the protesters who had been there from the start, that the anarchists were going to be doing this.

Up until this point it seemed like everyone was getting along peacefully

Thought we had another thread for the "police" stuff

I wonder why you'd even post this when the video doesn't show anything remotely like a vets being beaten

there's a video where a cop throws an american flag on the ground and a reportedly 74-year-old vietnam vet was thrown to the ground by a cop, but why bother posting it? the fact that the police are even breaking up these protests at all is shameful...i'm not gonna stoop to the 'guess who else just followed orders' cliche, but the writing is on the wall
