That was not Martial LAw in L.A.

It is a compilation of footage from various protests over the last ten years in Los Angeles, primarily the annual May 1st (May Day) protests which are sponsored by groups such as the local Communists, Socialists, Mecha, Lulac and other so-called peaceful organizations. What you are not shown are the people who wear face coverings and taunt the Police with every intent of turning the protests into violence filled "actions". Many of the protestors are uneducated permanent welfare recipients and illegal immigrants.

i have to agree with 2steps for the most part, no one states what the protest is for, and the dude at the end was covering his face..why?? and since they cut up the vid so much what are they trying to hide.. it kinda reminds me of the rodney king incident.. the media only showed part of the footage so when the charges were droped all hell broke loose..

i'm just not sure its clips spanning ten years..

I remember this, living in Los Angeles, I also believe i heard something about a "private" police force wearing a symbol resembling what could be a NAU patch. Anybody have any memory of this, please let me know.

Unreal that women and children were being SHOT for protesting. rubber bullets or not, it's a total step over the line. if something like that ever happened around here, i'd feel sorry for the police.

well you have to remember these people have jobs to do... they dont think for themselves... they follow orders...
and here in Florida they drive their police cars Home...
* Florida Policemans Union... thye included that provision in their negoitations. I suspect that will change real soon, so everyone I see I take a picture of, Ive got over 500 pictures already -- If they declare Martial Law... they win by day and thugs win by night... I pray it does not come down to US -vs- Them -- but you have to attend some of these Police Functions to see how that is supported.... and they firmly believe it is us Cockroaches -vs- Them the right the just the force that holds us together... I use to Tow for A to Z towing San Diego, CA... we had the Govt towing contracts... and let me tell you... the cops are worse than the criminals in San Diego... (use to be in 1980's)....
