Video of Police Assaulting #OWS Protestor and Punching Woman in the Face
From naked capitalism:
“This video was from this morning, when the police were keeping protestors out of the park, an illegal violation of a court injunction. The protestors show a copy of the court order and are (predictably) denied access to the park. The woman was punched at around 1:45; the footage does not show the actual blow, but you can pretty clearly infer from her suddenly being on the ground in obvious pain what happened.
If this is what you see, imagine what happened last night, with no cameras and videos to constrain police aggression.”

Meme the shit out of this guy.
*gasping* omg
And I can’t imagine any situation where decent police officers, those who understand the role of the media and the access granted to them by the mere virtue of wearing an NYPD-issued press pass, would arrest journalists. Journalists, who are there to cover a story, not to become part of it.
