This needs to be seen in a larger context. The police have been actively harassing citizens since the protests began.

Endless low-altitude helicopters circling over neighborhoods:

Mass arrests and harassment of peaceful protesters. Including my niece. People are picked up by the police, but not 'booked' until 9-10 hours later, and they sometimes have unexplainable injuries by the time they are booked. Cell phones are confiscated as evidence; good luck getting it back in less than 5 years.

Police are not the good guys. This is not the country I was taught to believe in.
