This is #2 of seven videos of testimonials given by victims of police violence in Olympia, Washington. To see all 7 just do a youtube search for the title: Police Violence in Olympia.
These police went nuts. I have never seen anything like it. Activists in the Pacific Northwest are fighting hard to stop this war. And this particular group PMR- Port Militarization Resistance is very courageous and persistent.

1. Becoming really, really scary now, isn't it?

Sooooooo insidious, the loss of basic freedoms and basic human rights.

[whistle]

2. Yes like the Odessa Step scene from the Russian film maker Sergei Eisenstein's "Battleship Potemkin"

...The Battleship Potyomkin (Potemkin) is a 1925 silent film directed by Sergei Eisenstein and produced by Mosfilm has a 7 minute and 30 second scene that becomes sheer terror and is a real possibility in this country. Watch:

6. Just regular cops who got a lot of homeland security money

and got to go out shopping for new clothes, hence the riot cop gear not visible in this video but in many others. They should have also used some of that money to go to school to learn how to be good cops. But alas, they did not. But look forward to this happening all over America. Actually it has already in most of the cities if not all. When it starts coming to smaller towns, we're all in deep shit.
We're just lucky they didn't get out their tasers. But I guess that's next.
So fight them now when you still can.
