Statement on LAPD Brutally Attacks May Day Immigrant Marchers at McArthur Park

It is sad that with all the training LAPD officers and CROWD CONTROL special squads have had , they still act with a degree of incompetence similiar to those of SOUTH AFRICA. Thee police riot squad have done their best to make the LAPD look like the 1960's when civil rights had no meaning and the police had full total control of it's citizens by the use of fear. Maybe the weapons of mass destruction that president BUSH was looking for are the LAPD's own police force! With all the beatings they did on the MAYDAY POLICE ASSAULT, we wonder if other countries feel proud of their own POLICE?
