(62,325 posts)Not unless someone is searching to do just that. Eg, I have followed this movement closely from the first day and I never say that incident. So someone obviously had to search to find a single incident, a totally minor incident, while ignoring ALL the major crimes committed by the police at every protest. It's a bit odd frankly, sort of like looking at a field of grass, acres and acres, and searching to find one blade out of millions that is shorter than the millions of others. Like a needle in a haystack, hard to find, unless you really are looking hard to find it.
And no, the group should NOT 'hand him over'. There is a word for people like that.
Funny how you have no comment about the fact that none of the criminal, brutal, murderous police officers have even been named after months of so-called 'investigations'. Now they should 'be turned over' considering they nearly killed peaceful US Citizens.
How come not one has been named, not one has been removed from duty after proving beyond a doubt that they are threat to the public?? Why is that? Who shot Scott Olsen, who fractured the spleen of Kayvan Sabhegi, respected businessman in his community, Iraq War Veteran, left to die without medical treatment for 18 hours after been brutally beaten by not one, but by several cowardly thugs wearing uniforms.
They deserve zero respect and by now several of them should have been fired for the safety of the public and some of them should be in jail. But you choose to focus on someone who threw a plastic bottle, NOT a deadly weapon, and not a word of anger for the cops.
Their brutality was noted even by the UN who attempted to intervene on behalf of the American people whose lives are placed in danger each time they go to a protest and exercise their 1st Amendment rights.
Did you say they were right? How could ANYONE say that, how could anyone in any way equate this minor incident, no highlight it, in light of the criminal behavior of the police who are the sole reason for any violence at these protests.
