Had this happened in Tehran, it’d receive 24/7 coverage for weeks, but sadly, it happened right here in the U.S.S.A..
Frightening arrest:
Cops pose with arrested protester – like trophy hunting:

Police dressed as anarchist:
the first one is so frightening, i was almost sure it was some kind of performance art until i found news stories confirming its being real. ugh.
The first video with the resisting arrest I believe is faked. Some people are saying its confirmed as real footage but the uniforms the people are wearing do not make any sense. All the police are wearing uniforms that are similar, then all of a sudden a car rolls up and guys in BDU’s stuff a guy into it? They have no patches that I can see. I wouldn’t go so far as to say it is for sure a fake, but I would like to know the source of the video and a little bit more about it before I believe it.
it’s real: rawstory.com/2009/09/video-appears-to-show-us-troops-kidnapping-protester/
the ‘undercover’ video is… awkward, hilarious, horrible. im at least impressed that they strayed from the standard undercover uniform (football jersey).
In Canada a while, undercover cops were not just present, but acting as stone-throwing provocateurs. (source)
