Umm... WTH? G-20 summit protestors randomly arrested

www.youtube.com

Demonstrators went on the march through Pittsburgh without a permit, and police tactics effectively split up the group after about 45 minutes of marching. In the end only about 26 arrests were made. (taken from video description)

Well I don't know what to say... They were protesting without a permit so the police have the "right" to arrest them but it is still completely outraging when they do this to a PEACEFUL protest. I'm willing to bet that they were trying to scare the demonstrators out of continuing the protest but obviously it only made them angrier.

What do you think?

I always thought it was a pretty ridiculous concept to begin with...
A Permit to Protest?!!??!
Imagine if the american colonists would have had to have applied for a permit to throw tea into the harbor.

I believe they were English colonists. Or Colonists of the Americas.

Is this really surprising? The NWO has to crack down at some point, might as well now. They've already thrown out Miranda Warning now.

No they haven't. They've done the exact opposite, in fact. We now read the Miranda to members of the Taliban and al Qaeda that we capture in Afghanistan.
