It is annoying to me that everyone goes so goddamn crazy over the violence of the police at demonstrations. Yes, be outraged, I guess, but its nothing new, especially if you live in the colonies, the ghettos of this country, where police brutality is an everyday thing. I have this sense of "quit whining" when white, privileged activists especially, seem to think that this is not how the police are supposed to act. I guess if you don't encounter this kind of violence everyday, its probably shocking, sure... But what do you expect?

I am not of the politic that we should blame the victims... So if windows get trashed, or people defend themselves against frustrated or trigger happy pigs and then the state increases its power, I am not about to throw the blame on to the protestors. I just think that its interesting that the US is about war everywhere else (and here as well against the poor, people of color, working class, indigenous), but when there are mild instances of police brutality at demos here, everyone thinks the world is ending... get real!!!
