TLDR:
17 year old was at a protest, things got out of hand and he tried to leave. Police attacked him and beat him. They then tried to charge him with anything they could make up at the spot, and released him later that night without giving him access to medical care or notifying his parents.

The police ripped off his shirt during the attack and replaced it with a white t-shirt with a flag on it that said “Remember 9/11”.

What the fuck did he think was going to happen?
Every protest I've ever been to didn't end happily.
Why did that little faggot paint his fingernails? :rolleyes: For that, he deserves a good beating. :mad:

looked like he got arrested roughly not mercilessly beaten

I believe the more appropriate photo for this news article would be this: http://www.minnesotaindependent.com/6997/boot-print-on-his-back-photographs-video-of-17-year-old-rnc-protester-after-run-in-with-police
That was him after the incident. You know, things like this used to inspire riots.

^ If you thought the RNC protests were bad, you'll be horrified at the DNC protests:

^Notice what the guy with the bandana says at 3:30 and look at what the police are doing to contain the protesters. One of the fundamental rules of riot control is to allow an exit route for the crowd, surrounding on all sides only provokes the rioters (think of cornering a wild animal, it has no choice but to fight back), puts innocent bystanders side by side with protesters and will ultimately end in death. Kent state is a perfect example of this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_State_Massacre
