        @aterkel I hope people notice the expressions on those cops. They don't like this any more than we do (hopefully not just b/c kid is white)

        @aterkel @ryanjreilly Five cops to effect the arrest of a teen. Guess you don't need to shoot them.

        @aterkel @ryanjreilly - can you tell if it is anarchists who are coming to the town to increase level of violence? I have seen them in Cali.

        @aterkel if a minor, why are his parents allowing him to be in the risky situation of the nite protests? Chaos has been the Leader evrynite.

        @aterkel how old is the 'kid' in question? If he's truly a minor, where are his parents that are responsible for him being 'out past curfew'
