LAPD maul and brutally smash an independent photographer face first into the ground
Photojournalist Tyson Zoltan Heder, who was photographing the events of Occupy Los Angeles and the LAPD evicting the protesters, was beaten by the police and had his camera taken, and then he was detained and charged with "assault", and at the time of uploading this video he remains in police custody. Watch the video and see if you can see anyone doing any "assault" to anyone else. I'll give you a hint: Tyson isn't the perpetrator of any assault, he's the one who GETS assaulted.

Re: LAPD maul and brutally smash an independent photographer ...
That’s unfortunate, given that the LAPD has a bad reputation, and Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa was trying to avoid incidents like this. No pepper spray, no tear gas, etc. In general a policy of “"minimal use of force.”
However there were indeed arrests. Men and women alike were held without charges for hours on end, forced to urinate in their seats on a holding bus while handcuffed, cut off from attorneys, medical supplies and drinking water, and locked away with punitively high bails.
I was an LAPD cop myself for just under a year in 1989. Eleven years later I was a prison guard for 2.5 years. Those two experiences soured me on law enforcement. I don’t like cops. I don’t like the people in that world. And I was one of them in the past.
