9. Relax guys and blow up that last picture.
I adore Cindy, and would hate to see the cops or anyone else treat her badly. It's women like her who are America's best hope for ever regaining its integrity. So I was very relieved at what I saw when I blew these pics up. She's relaxed as a baby in those cops arms, she's laughing, and they are only having to "manhandle" her because she's doing the passive thing of not moving away herself.

I'd bet that if you talk to any of the policemen in those pictures, you'd find that they had succumbed to Cindy's own special magic, and will be left with a long-lasting respect for her.

She does need help though if she if going to acheive what she has a potential to do. One person, however wonderful, can never be more that the foam on the crest of the wave. It's up to you guys, (I can't, I'm in Australia,) to be that wave for her. With enough people backing her, there is no limit to what she can achieve, but you need to get out there and be present with her, or arrange smaller demonstrations in support of her all around the country.

Many "anti-liberal" Americans are now getting disillusioned and looking for an alternative, and, if Cindy is shown to have enough popularity by enough other people getting out there and mirroring her twin tactics of love and stubbornness, they will realise there is still something to hope for.

10. I see this happen all the time.
If you are standing / sitting / lying / flailing / whatever somewhere where the cops tell you you're not allowed to be, and you don't move, you get moved. It's as simple as that. And if you put up a fight, as it sure appears she was doing, then you get -forcibly- moved. This is nothing new, nothing scandalous. This is not police brutality. This is police doing their job. Not everything is a huge law enforcement scandal or conspiracy.
