police brutality
These are still images from video I shot Friday 3/21/03 at about 6:00pm. A memeber of notinourname is tackled. While on the ground he repeatly said he was not resisting followed by an agonizing groan. I can supply you with the whole video if someone needs it.

The "Cops" in these pictures are not SFPolice Department but SF Sheriff Department. Guess we need to look at little closer to make sure we know who to complain against.
The guy that got tackled contacted me
and said the police kneed his back, gound his head into the pavement , twisted his knee and ankle and bent back his finger until it broke.

I am a police officer, I specialize in crowd control and self defense techniques/training. I don't think you understand what it is like to be a police officer in a riot. Your nerves are on end, and its plain scary sometimes.
We risk our lives everyday for people in our communities; this is what happens when people forget about how dangerous our job is. Sometimes we use heavy physical force; it's not intended to injure or degrade the suspect, it's just what we have to do to gain control of the situation, AND THAT IS OUR JOB, to enforce the laws of our community and state.

That was Eichmann's excuse.
