Well this is insane. This was clearly a non-violent protest as these students were simply standing there when the police began beating them. The kid in the bushes on the left is being beaten from all sides. Those batons hurt I am sure.
And Chancellor Robert Birgeneau clearly has to go after he initially said the protesters' actions were worthy of police action during last week's campus conflict, writing in an email to the campus community:
“It is unfortunate that some protesters chose to obstruct the police by linking arms and forming a human chain to prevent the police from gaining access to the tents. This is not non-violent civil disobedience.”
Linking arms is not "non-violent civil disobedience"? Damn I guess Cal has been quite for awhile and the powers that be forgot what protests are like.
