4 protesters awarded $185K over 2004 RNC arrests

[reddread]

15. must have been awfully busy ever since

not to know what happened.
you werent sitting in a police bus, paddywagon, riding a scooter, horse, bicycle or doing undercover work, were you?
I mean really, "the beating?" is a fairly plausible response. It just doesnt apply to this particular issue.
what does apply, in case you're hungry for facts, is that people were following directions and arrested for doing so.
then, they were detained in toxic makeshift prisons well past due process, for reasons that civilized "freedom loving"
countries would not consider appropriate.
Nicely enough, the RNC was able to arrange all this and dump the risk on the taxpayer.
These settlements are a joke.
If I had managed to be arrested (and it would have probably been for verbally abusing police and public drunkeness around hour 37)
the way those people were, I would still be fighting for proper recompense.
what price freedom?
what cost injustice?
