Finally some mainstream coverage (and not some hidden blog posts NPR) of the police brutality at the Occupy Wall Street protests.

this needs to be seen. america, it’s time to be heard.

This needs to be stopped. He said it’ll be forgotten unless someone is killed or seriously injured. Why must we wait until then? For fuck’s sake, if a police officer treated me in that way, if they forcefully subdued me on the ground as they did in this video - I would no doubt lose my leg, my ability to walk, or incur another pelvic fracture. Literally, that much unnecessary force can harm a healthy, fully-able individual, but god forbid they did that to a person with disabilities. Unfortunately, that’ll probably have to happen several times over before anything gets done/said about it in this pathetic country.
