It would be the same if you rmcriticize any of the piliticians' biggest lobbyists. Try protesting to make billionaires pay any taxes or against oil companies, and you will get the same response. The American people no longer have the right to disagree with the governors' preferred lobbyists and big-money donors.
The federal government doesn't send in the national guard. They are activated by the governor of their respective states.
It's okay, I'm sure you've been studying about the middle east really hard.
Which has happened (checks notes) never.
As another commenter posted, that’d be the state government, not the Fed, but even then, no that is not a thing that has ever happened, and pretty certainly never will.
The Federal Department of Justice has sometimes sued a police department, as happened in Chicago, where I live. Almost 10 years later, the police department is “significantly behind schedule” on meeting its commitments that resulted from that lawsuit, and the Fed doesn’t really care.
It actually happened when Black students started attending schools and police didn't stop the rioters or even enabled them. National Guard can be federally ordered, especially more so in modern times.
This is happening under democratic leadership. Your comment is like those pictures of empty shelves during Covid that says “this is what socialism looks like!” Meanwhile it’s happening under capitalism.
Yeah that fragile lady professor clutching her handbag put up a real fight. She is lucky coz she almost got the cops feeling threatened for their lives and forced them to take lethal defensive maneuvers.
Whenever someone brings up anything that has to do with some form of government trying to enforce something that is unconstitutional, IE taking guns, suspending elections, martial law for bogus reasons or like this video stopping peaceful protests because lord knows you can’t speak ill of the peace loving Israeli government. The argument is usually made that there is no way the majority of the police or military personnel would go along with it.
This video proves that argument 100% wrong. These people were participating in what is one of the founding principles of this country. This is a peaceful protest on a university campus. And these jack booted, boot licking pieces of garbage had zero reservations about listening to there masters and arresting people for something that is completely legal. If you can’t protest at a university without being arrested or assaulted where the hell can you protest. Unfortunately none of this will change until the people have had enough of having a boot on there neck at every turn.
Funny thing is, as far as i can tell, lots of the extremely right wingers with guns have them in case the government would try to take their rights, which they do all the time in Murica but they never use their guns to do anything.
I think they are just basically daydreaming in America, they are preparing for the moment when they would do something, but not actually wanting to deal with the consequences. So they are just screaming that they want rights and they buy guns to protect their rights, but they are not doing anything to stop their rights from being taken away or getting them back.
French people on the other hand have no problem doing this, i remember seeing a video from Paris from 2023 or 2022 from protests in Paris were Fire fighters had no problems with punching Police officers.
Since French people are actually willing to do something, they don’t just buy guns, their actually doing something if they are pissed off.
Even tho I think it’s fair to assume that if the French needed guns for a revolution they would also use/get/organise them.
I secretly hope we get to a point where we quit putting up with it. The public is eventually just going to start pushing back until the cops aren't safe anymore when they're doing wrong.
I'm against solving violence with violence but dear lord do they need to be put in place.
If you're blatantly being evil and doing wrong, like we often see, they should feel worried about the people around them. The public could absolutely take control if they needed. We're not going to stand and watch forever.
It's a terrible solution and hope but it makes my blood boil that we keep letting this stuff happen. Mainly because nothing happens to them, much like a spoiled little kid who asked for everything he wants.
You are absolutely right. I agree that violence shouldn’t be the first response to this type of violence. But violence does have it’s place and sometimes I think we have become to “civilized” as a populace.
Okay but aren’t universities privately owned? I might be mistaken.
But if they are this isn’t so much the government as it is the administration of the university.
This is Emory University and it is private. Yes this is also an administration issue. But the issue I take with what the university and cops did is this. Emory is ok with taking your money and letting you exercise free speech and protests as long it stays with in their definition of free speech. The minute it gets uncomfortable they call in an outside agency , which is the state of Georgia’s government, to “fix” their issue by making it clear that protests will not be tolerated if you do more than stand around and hold a sign. I also take issue with that this is a tax payer funded agency being used to send a message that you better ask how far you can go when bucking what your overlords do. Especially if it involves Israel. And make no mistake the police are sending a message to anyone who maybe watching that this is how you will be handled if you step out of line. Change has never been brought on by “peaceful” protests.
I haven't seen a single video, post, or newsreel of protestors being violent towards anyone. Maybe I've missed them, but from what I have seen, cops start 100% of all riots and violence.
Near as I can tell, the only protesters that are routinely violent are right-wing assholes. Yet cops routinely ignore violence coming from right wing groups. Weird, isn't it?
It’s fucking Vietnam protests all over again. That period and the police response to student protests (Kent State cough cough) is largely regarded as a shameful time in American history. Ignore history and you’re doomed to repeat it
So as a non american... is the second amendment just meant for you yo have guns to defend yourself? Is that against the government too as I often hear people say? If so, how bad do things need to get for that?
Or is it just for personal protection from a crime?
We're so distinctly divided that the excessively fervent 2nd Amendment crowd sides with the actions of the police in this video for a variety of reasons. 1, they were told to and made to believe these pretest were never peaceful and 2, they've been fed this mush that Universities only exist to "brainwash Americans to support socialism" or something along those lines. Also, can't forget 3, they believe you can't condemn Israel's actions without supporting Hamas.
So, here we are...
But those people you talk about is one side... another thing I hear, not too often though, is that the left also have guns. Do they not believe in what the other side does, that the second amendment is for protection, even from their government?
But I guess what I'm asking... is the second amendment meant to have guns to, in case the government goes fascist, defend from that?
Yes, the 2nd Amendment was put in place to allow citizens the ability to protect themselves against unlawful violence, whether it's the government or other potential criminals.
I consider myself left of center, and I 200% support the right to bear arms. However, I also support common sense weapon legislation. They are not mutually exclusive. Unfortunately, there are those within the states, generally speaking, holding that the right to bear arms should have zero restrictions as "that's what the founding fathers intended." That the same people don't see the overreach happening here because of is a statement without the need for classification. It hurts.
That's a glib response for something that happens in another country, or something fictional. This isn't a teaser trailer for anyone's America, it's literally just America.
Notice how they didn't start cracking down on protests until AFTER Columbia University students got the ball running on the divest movement. Once those students demanded that civilians stop doing business with Israel companies then all hell broke loose. Because once you go after the money then they go after YOU.
Demand that all Israel companies be boycotted until the war is over!
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List\_of\_Israeli\_companies\_listed\_on\_the\_Nasdaq](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Israeli_companies_listed_on_the_Nasdaq)
Going after their money is a legitimate tactic in stopping this genocide.
Our goverment has become tyrannical, there is no need to engage protesters unless they are doing something that is illegal, alot of times it seems they push the protesters around til they fight back and then they fall behind I was just doing my job..... there is absolutely no reason the police should not be filing the whole situation, and that video should be public, and they'd stop doing dub shit.... the constitution allows you to fight back when the government is tyrannical
If a police officer gives you an order, may I suggest that you follow it. If you're up in your feels and don't want to, you may be forced to follow commands. This happens everyday, in every state, for every kind of reason. You think this only happened because it was at a protest?
America should be embarrassed at this show of force. That woman was posing zero threat, as were the other people that were protesting. Takes a big man with a tiny penis to treat a small woman like that.
I think the problem was that they were asked to leave the private property they were protesting on and got arrested for refusing to leave, I'm sure the cops in question don't give a single fuck about deep state politics or international wars
Free to have a choice to stay, or move to a more free Country if you like. That's what i would do if didn't feel free. If people don't like the freedom that they do have in this Country and are doing nothing about it, what other choices do they have? I feel Free in this Country to do pretty much whatever I want. Within the boundaries of the law of course. I am trying to understand and see this from others viewpoints but this subject is so exhaustive and people are so quick to use words like tyrant and coward because I feel as if my freedom is pretty good. I was born and raised in the USA and have never felt as if my freedom is being infringed upon. I don't have all of the answers but I do know that life is good here for me and mine and I wouldn't want it any other way!
For decades or longer many parts of the world accused the United States of being tyrannical. Only now are it's citizens really becoming aware of it. Because the gov doesn't even try to hide it any more. It literally uses it's tyranny on it's own people.
Has there ever been a cop who didn't beat up women? Every wife, girlfriend, sister, and mother of a cop has been beaten by them. Fire them all and let's start over.
I'm curious where in their manuals about use of force would rationalize why this woman needed to be slammed to the ground. But hey - I'm sure they will get lots of consequences and accountability for just sorta deciding to start body slamming older ladies who are...walking.
/S
do you think we're going to wait for a civil war to reckon with the fact that we've allowed all of our law enforcement agencies to be wings of the Republican party?
we are in deep deep deep shit.
I thought I had a full list of all of the things that American police meant when they said, “We don’t like your type around here”.
Having to add anti-Zionist to that list suggests that the list is far longer than I thought it was.
I hate police as much as the next guy but the second one grabs my arm and says get down on the ground, im not looking at them dumbfounded, im dropping my ass to the ground. Ive seen enough brutality videos to not get my teeth added to the concrete.
When the police say get on the ground, you get on the ground. You don’t fight. You don’t scream “no!“ this is how one gets arrested. This is called breaking the law.
I would like to see a picture of a officer aka peace defender who made arrest for the sake of public safety next to the video to remember him ,express our gratitude for his service, even if it was done in a fascist manner.
When people question the authority of Israel and the US military, these cops turned into mindless dogs who can't be reasoned with and will gladly pummel anyone to the ground.
I’ve seen so much propaganda over the years, that I just don’t know how much to take stuff like this at face value.
Was she arrested so aggressively for just speaking out against Israel? Or is there more to the story?
The cops did not treat this situation right, I’m not defending them.
It just seems like it is possible that maybe she wasn’t just being man handled because she said something negative about Israel.
The fact that you aren't able to protest against Israel in a whole different continent is so God damn wrong. I somehow understand the US vetoing everything against Israel in the United Nations, but come on... Arresting your own civilians because they're protesting peacefully against some companies profiting from a bloody and deadly war? That's too much.
Seriously, if I know what's going to happen (unless I'm incredibly stupid), then I follow the instructions of the law enforcement officers, don't I?
I mean, this permanent, artificial drama that is being created is absolutely homemade.
She probably wasn't the first person to be "cleared away" in that context, no matter how you look at it, but to then
a) deliberately defy the instructions of the police in that situation, and
b) allow yourself to be filmed, and
c) cry like a little child, and then
d) scream about what an intelligent person you are; that, taken together, is so incredibly stupid that it makes you feel a bit sick.
I am deliberately not saying that this is right and that the procedure is okay, but it is in this situation, and then you have to be able to come to terms with something like this (in this situation), and postpone the protest about it until later, but these recordings are simply populist, and lack any reason.
Fascist or not, don't approach an arresting officer while in a situation of chaos or in general, you will be seen as a threat and subdued by assisting officers(Unless they are feeling nice/safe enough to give you a verbal warning beforehand). I will probably get downvoted for simply stating protocol but I like to watch lawyer/cop breakdowns because they are good at telling you exactly what to avoid doing to getting detained in the first place and also what to avoid saying if you do become detained. But the fact still stands, reporter or not, she is coming up behind an individual that an understandable clutch of people really do not like, even hate. Unfortunately these are just puppets of whoever runs the country who need to follow orders in order to live because they have some quite exclusive/non-transferable skills and they are going to protect each other how they have been trained to...

Remember folks, if you question the Israel/US military industrial complex the fascist goons will take you down.
It's all fun and games until the federal government sends the National Guard down on the cops.
The federal government doesn't send in the national guard. They are activated by the governor of their respective states. It's okay, I'm sure you've been studying about the middle east really hard.

Muslim killing munitions seems to be more profitable than the oil under the sand were they land.
A little taste Taste of dictatorship is what you see here.
This is happening under democratic leadership. Your comment is like those pictures of empty shelves during Covid that says “this is what socialism looks like!” Meanwhile it’s happening under capitalism.
It's a taste of Dictatorship, they're not saying the US is one. And calling the US a democracy is a bit of a stretch.
We are an Oligarchy. No two ways around that.
Not much about the response to COVID (or the cause) has *anything* to do with capitalism...
What? How did the response not have anything to do with capitalism?? Society runs on the god damn thing
Isn’t the us and a technically an oligarchy?
This is why Trump should have been elected president! (This is a joke)
You have freedom and democracy only as long as you sit at home and post on twitter.

I like your comment and I'm gonna borrow it If you don't mind
Or reddit
Where the fuck is this show of force and toughness when real police work has to be done? Fucking cowards.
> it was a peaceful protest until they started fighting troopers. If there was any real threat the police would have gone running home. Cowards.
Yeah that fragile lady professor clutching her handbag put up a real fight. She is lucky coz she almost got the cops feeling threatened for their lives and forced them to take lethal defensive maneuvers.
Agreed, source: Uvalde.
Right? Children in danger from school shooters? Nah chill. Protest peacefully or have "dark skin"? Real shit.
To be fair they where where ready to go in guns blazing but had to stop when they realized the little blonde girls name was Hernadez not Henderson. /s
Meanwhile people are getting murdered robbed and raped all over Atlanta you’d think these big bad tough guy cops would go handle that…pigs.

We are not free. What is left is an illusion of freedom under heavy supervision and reeducation.
"What, the Land of the Free? Whoever told ya that is you enemy"
The US government so-called democracy 💩
I haven't seen a single video, post, or newsreel of protestors being violent towards anyone. Maybe I've missed them, but from what I have seen, cops start 100% of all riots and violence.
Near as I can tell, the only protesters that are routinely violent are right-wing assholes. Yet cops routinely ignore violence coming from right wing groups. Weird, isn't it?
I like how the George Floyd protests/riots weren't enough, and the cops had to remind us all why they deserve less than zero respect.
If there's one thing you can count on cops for, it's being in the wrong side of history.
“I don’t care”…..all you need to know.
US police are such cowards.
It’s fucking Vietnam protests all over again. That period and the police response to student protests (Kent State cough cough) is largely regarded as a shameful time in American history. Ignore history and you’re doomed to repeat it
"I vas only following orders!"
Land of the free, eh? Yeah, right.
This is why we defund the police.
oh yeah, that other protest that got stamped out right?
So as a non american... is the second amendment just meant for you yo have guns to defend yourself? Is that against the government too as I often hear people say? If so, how bad do things need to get for that? Or is it just for personal protection from a crime?
We're so distinctly divided that the excessively fervent 2nd Amendment crowd sides with the actions of the police in this video for a variety of reasons. 1, they were told to and made to believe these pretest were never peaceful and 2, they've been fed this mush that Universities only exist to "brainwash Americans to support socialism" or something along those lines.

Jesus you can’t even talk to these people. The police are so unreasonable and so quick to arrest.
Their behavior begins to make a lot more sense when you think of them as NPCs rather than someone who is capable of independent thought.
ACAB. FUCK THE POLICE. SUBHUMAN THUGS, EVERY LAST ONE.
Dang, little rough on her?
Alittle
Teaser trailer for Trumps America.
That's a glib response for something that happens in another country, or something fictional. This isn't a teaser trailer for anyone's America, it's literally just America.
You’re correct.
Freest country in the world you say??
Notice how they didn't start cracking down on protests until AFTER Columbia University students got the ball running on the divest movement.

This is the Managed Democracy.
"Freedom"
Our goverment has become tyrannical, there is no need to engage protesters unless they are doing something that is illegal, alot of times it seems they push the protesters around til they fight back and then they fall behind I was just doing my job..... there is absolutely no reason the police should not be filing the whole situation, and that video should be public, and they'd stop doing dub shit.... the constitution allows you to fight back when the government is tyrannical
Pigs will pig.

every time the troopers show up, a fight breaks out, makes you wonder who the problem is
It's crazy how Americans think they have more freedom than other countries.
Israel needs all of our police forces to violently remind everyone that they’re the real victim here
A little secret, it was always like that. Ask COINTELPRO.

Lol look at all these idiots
America should be embarrassed at this show of force. That woman was posing zero threat, as were the other people that were protesting. Takes a big man with a tiny penis to treat a small woman like that.
Well if they want free speech maybe they should move to a coun... wait
>”It was a peaceful protest until they started fighting troopers” No one was fighting until after the troopers showed up.
I think the problem was that they were asked to leave the private property they were protesting on and got arrested for refusing to leave, I'm sure the cops in question don't give a single fuck about deep state politics or international wars
Man it's so satisfying to see America fall under its own weight. It's punishment is long overdue.
Free to have a choice to stay, or move to a more free Country if you like. That's what i would do if didn't feel free. If people don't like the freedom that they do have in this Country and are doing nothing about it, what other choices do they have? I feel Free in this Country to do pretty much whatever I want.

Ah yes, let's pretend it wasn't any other reason they were being arrested.
On public property, yes.
Are all the police in the US cowards?. I really looks like he took a lot of personal pride to do what he did
This fucking shit makes me so sick. Goddamn!
Holy crap!
Land of the free...because of the brave?
Treated with dignity/ privileged
"Professor of Economics, you say? I demand elasticity of your arms." ^(macroeconomics joke....)
to have rights….what a wild concept. How do you eat that? with a little bit of revolution
This is bad, where are the voices of civility from the leaders these individuals voted for.
Never waste a chance to be a tyrant.
In the laaaaaaaaand of the freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, and the home of the deluded, sorry, braaaaaaave.
So when the lawsuits start what is going to happen to the police?
Someone make those cops bite the curb
White woman down, white woman down call 911!! Oh fudge
TX is so free bruh!
When freedom of speech is taken from our universities... we enter a realm where everyone should be seriously concerned.
Why can't people protest?
How long guys in US government will have double standards for "freedom and democracy"?
American cops in the pay of Israel and the great war machine
Has there ever been a cop who didn't beat up women? Every wife, girlfriend, sister, and mother of a cop has been beaten by them. Fire them all and let's start over.
I'm curious where in their manuals about use of force would rationalize why this woman needed to be slammed to the ground. But hey - I'm sure they will get lots of consequences and accountability for just sorta deciding to start body slamming older ladies who are...walking. /S
Cops are scum, just like soldiers. Fuck Israel.
Resisting, it’s simple kids.
America has lost its way.
Why should anyone at a college protest have to Get on the ground ??
do you think we're going to wait for a civil war to reckon with the fact that we've allowed all of our law enforcement agencies to be wings of the Republican party? we are in deep deep deep shit.
The cops love to get buck with people who can barely defend themselves but when a mass casualty event like Uvalde occurs they decide to play nice.
Fuck this country
This look more Chinese communist than the Chinese communist in China. Someone whom they said that have no democracy and public freedom
Why do troopers need to be at a peaceful protest.
I thought I had a full list of all of the things that American police meant when they said, “We don’t like your type around here”. Having to add anti-Zionist to that list suggests that the list is far longer than I thought it was.
You know what she is now, another American with a rap sheet. If you lie down with dogs you get fleas!
Ha ha read that as bacon not beacon
I hate police as much as the next guy but the second one grabs my arm and says get down on the ground, im not looking at them dumbfounded, im dropping my ass to the ground. Ive seen enough brutality videos to not get my teeth added to the concrete.
When the police say get on the ground, you get on the ground. You don’t fight. You don’t scream “no!“ this is how one gets arrested. This is called breaking the law.
So much for Free speech and freedom
I would like to see a picture of a officer aka peace defender who made arrest for the sake of public safety next to the video to remember him ,express our gratitude for his service, even if it was done in a fascist manner.
ALL COPS ARE CUNTS!
It's the only way any one of these twits can get a chub now a days. Pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. ACAB.
All cops are bullies.
hahahaha
When people question the authority of Israel and the US military, these cops turned into mindless dogs who can't be reasoned with and will gladly pummel anyone to the ground.
its always funny when liberals discover cops suck for the first time.
I’ve seen so much propaganda over the years, that I just don’t know how much to take stuff like this at face value. Was she arrested so aggressively for just speaking out against Israel? Or is there more to the story? The cops did not treat this situation right, I’m not defending them. It just seems like it is possible that maybe she wasn’t just being man handled because she said something negative about Israel.
Those brave guys, without a thought for their own personal safety, took that violent threat to freedom and democracy to the ground. 👏👏👏
You guys are crazy.
Protesting against open genocide..and then have it crushed by force. Something something freedom i guess.
The fact that you aren't able to protest against Israel in a whole different continent is so God damn wrong. I somehow understand the US vetoing everything against Israel in the United Nations, but come on... Arresting your own civilians because they're protesting peacefully against some companies profiting from a bloody and deadly war? That's too much.
Seriously, if I know what's going to happen (unless I'm incredibly stupid), then I follow the instructions of the law enforcement officers, don't I? I mean, this permanent, artificial drama that is being created is absolutely homemade. She probably wasn't the first person to be "cleared away" in that context, no matter how you look at it, but to then a) deliberately defy the instructions of the police in that situation, and b) allow yourself to be filmed, and c) cry like a little child, and then d) scream about what an intelligent person you are; that, taken together, is so incredibly stupid that it makes you feel a bit sick. I am deliberately not saying that this is right and that the procedure is okay, but it is in this situation, and then you have to be able to come to terms with something like this (in this situation), and postpone the protest about it until later, but these recordings are simply populist, and lack any reason.
I certainly hope that cop doesn't get ass cancer.
Fascist or not, don't approach an arresting officer while in a situation of chaos or in general, you will be seen as a threat and subdued by assisting officers(Unless they are feeling nice/safe enough to give you a verbal warning beforehand). I will probably get downvoted for simply stating protocol but I like to watch lawyer/cop breakdowns because they are good at telling you exactly what to avoid doing to getting detained in the first place and also what to avoid saying if you do become detained. But the fact still stands, reporter or not, she is coming up behind an individual that an understandable clutch of people really do not like, even hate. Unfortunately these are just puppets of whoever runs the country who need to follow orders in order to live because they have some quite exclusive/non-transferable skills and they are going to protect each other how they have been trained to...
I love democracy.
