The attack sets off a chaotic melee that causes other police to attack and arrest a bunch of other people who appear to also be obeying orders. This entire scene is a violent reminder of how dangerous officers can be when their egos are threatened.

It's impossible to tell from the video who the officer is, but I guarantee you that officers in the vicinity, as well as his commanding officers, can identify him. That he hasn't been charged with assault is evidence that SPD's violent corruption is deeper than a few bad apples.

I am told the first guy they grab was charged with obstruction and resisting arrest.

BUT THAT'S NOT ALL. Just 20 minutes before that, Seattle Police officers were recorded running into pedestrians with their bikes, and then violently arresting the victims for what they claimed was assault. Even for SPD, yesterday was a vicious escalation. (

Meanwhile, other Seattle Police officers are posting about yesterday's protest on the local hate-group's page, calling the protesters cowards. The Seattle Police Department is fundamentally corrupt and incapable of holding its officers accountable.https://twitter.com/spekulation/status/1203861355477946368 …
