Police brutality is a crime, from '68 to zero nine.

I'm holding up the picture of the pigs at the 68 riots, behind the cop on the left. Mike is next to me, screaming of course. We went to this protest against the pigs' reunion; the article says the protest lasted an hour but actually we marched for several hours afterwards in the streets, blocking traffic and pissing off the police. It was really intense... there were a bunch of cop cars trying to block us off, they were trying to shove us on the sidewalk, but we wouldn't. We became very much an angry mob.
Here's a biased article/video with more information. Essentially, the cops who were busting the skulls of young protestors at the 1968 DNC in Chicago were holding a reunion. These were the same racist cops who beat Puerto Rican protestors two years earlier, and the cops who were likely to have murdered Fred Hampton and Mark Clark of the Black Panthers. I personally think that's disgusting, and that they have no right to revel in the violations of civil rights that they caused. There were people of all ages and backgrounds there, including veterans from the '68 protests. It was really awesome and we TOTALLY WON against the police. They tried to shut down our march and we didn't let them. We got all the way down town to Union Station. What were they going to do, beat people protesting against police brutality for walking in the street?
