Police Militarization In Anaheim

* Police shoot person in the back for running away from them when approached. No weapon.

* Neighbors gather.

* Police fire rubber bullets and let a dog go on women and children. Here's a video and breakdown of events: [1] http://youtu.be/t8RTYFhhJ94

 

* People then get angry and march to city hall the next day...

* People join up and march down the street.

* Cops tell them to disperse or get arrested.

* A few people throw rocks and plastic bottles (possibly undercovers)...

* 1000 police start shooting paintball guns at EVERY protester.

* Then people light dumpsters on fire.

* Police still fire at every person that looks like... idk... a person.

* Here's a journalist getting fired on by police just for walking down an ally and being associated with a protester yelling "fuck pigs". Video here: [2] http://youtu.be/CnkHKYYO9m0

 

Live streams that have a lot of videos of the protests.

There's archive of it all on there.

 

* Police are even going to creepy tactics to running out of vans to snatch and grab people: [6] http://youtu.be/fUzUvMI6IC0

 

Basically, the reason for such a response of force is they don't want it spread like the UK riots or how the Rodney King riots did.

 

Because the UK riots started for the exact same reason.
