cops over here are assholes. OC, LA and all over CA, everyone knows that, but thats not an excuse for breaking windows and throwing rocks. protesting is fine with me, but when you get police confronting an angry mob, you should be smart enough to know that you better get your ass out of there. cops dont deserve respect unless they respect the people theyre policing. there is a difference between showing respect and showing disrespect. i wouldnt show disrespect, but im not going to respect someone for the sake of doing so. as for the canadian police using tear gas, i dont see how that was excessive force. rocks hurt, and a quick way to disperse a crowd is to use nonlethal gas, and pepper them with rubber bullets. if you attack homes, police, businesses and the city in a protest, you are responsible if you get your head cracked by a baton.
