More shit to know, if you ever find yourself in the vicinity of a protest: In addition to being on the not-too-bright end of the human spectrum, police are viewing you as "scurrying cockroaches". Unlike a traffic stop or a noise complaint (where what you say makes all the difference), just you being there is enough to get your ass severely beat and/or tazed, and perhaps shot with rubber bullets.
The thing I can never seem to really get my mind around is where they find these riot police....I mean, I know there are some real bastards out there in the world....but this many of them?....and the really weird thing is I get the feeling they see themselves as the good guys....real stand up guys...patriotic Americans....
kooky....
