Violence in MacArthur Protests Caught on Tape.

There's a point where they're standing across from the park. You can see the street sign: Park View.

That exact corner is where my apartment is and where Buzznet used to be.

Seriously, this video terrifies me. Angers me. And depresses me.

How much more are we going to take?

This was filmed by TheGameJew. Props to him and his camera guy for sticking through the whole thing.

	JargonTalk ©: 05/04/2007 5:28 PM The New Colossus Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame, With conquering limbs astride from land to land; Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame. "Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" ~ Emma Lazarus This poem by Emma Lazarus is graven on a tablet within the pedestal on which the Statue of Liberty stands. What the hell happened to the country that at one time I committed my life to defend, a nation of proud immigrants from all corners of the world?

	peachylovekisses: 05/04/2007 8:36 PM this is really scary. i really dont think firing gun shots is necessary, as far as the video showed, this looked like a peaceful demonstration.
	counterculture from the underground: 05/05/2007 12:33 AM wow that is really something!

	girlonawindowsill: 05/05/2007 12:12 PM Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; OR THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE PEACEABLY TO ASSEMBLE, AND TO PETITION THE GOVERNMENT FOR A REDRESS OF GRIEVANCES. What has happened to our First Amendment? Has it disappeared from the Bill of Rights? Has the government suddenly been stricken with selective illiteracy, that they feel within their rights to violently disband a group of peaceful protesters?
	Buzznet's Official MiseryXchord™: 05/05/2007 1:37 PM I've watched this three times and I still can't form any response that would fit in 1000 characters.
	sexy9999: 05/05/2007 3:13 PM i like tht movie
	lyriresothic: 05/05/2007 9:33 PM This reminds me of the film you would see on the news during the civil rights riots...only the people would not be interviewed. The newscaster would feed their audience with the info that the television station wanted their viewers to hear and know. It was all very one-sided...But, i was just a little kid then, so i may not be remembering everything...there were only 2 or 3 channels and the news was nothing like it is today. From the view we saw, there did not appear to be any confrontation with the police.It was as if everyone was ignoring them....what was the moment that lead to the violence that ensued ....noone appeared to be resisting the police......PEOPLE PAY ATTENTION!!How much of this is happening with no camera to capture it? How more will it happen?
