I've been searching on YouTube trying to find one good enough to ID him. So far this is the only other perspective I've been able to find- with all those cameras going somebody had to get a good shot of his face...

6. They never would have done that to a teabagger. |
|
See how differently peaceful protesters against the idle rich are treated in this country.
I think the oligarchy are mildly annoyed.
I'm proud that the crowd didn't turn violent.

7. Why are we not confronting police unions? |
|
Unions want support from Democrats and visa versa. So why do we stand for this??
I cannot support unions that behave in this manner. If the GOP wants to cut spending they can start with cops as far as i'm concerned. And anyone who cares to disagree can put me on ignore...i'm fed up with this!
No replies needed!

9. Good luck. Cops in America have been doing this for over a century, with little improvement |
|
You can start a religious cult and molest children for decades, and as long as you stay properly right-wing, they'll run interference for you. But as soon as your cult starts talking socialism or anti-fascism, POW! It's Waco or Ruby Ridge.
My own personal "give up on the police" moment happened when I called 9-11 to report that four guys had parked on my quiet street, in heavy snow, dragged this (marginally conscious if at all) guy out of their pickup, and started systematically breaking him down. 9-11's response - "it's probably just a gang thing. Why don't you go out there again and see if they have any weapons?"
I have my doubts as to whether the guy lived, but I never found out for certain whether this was the same guy or not.

8. Shades of the "Good Old Days." |

This should be sent to all the major media outlets. They won't do anything with it, of course, but their silence will prove their complicity.

11. According to the photographer, this supervisor pushed him down |
|
Twice. http://yfrog.com/h3msktpjJeffrae's (the linked photographer) series of photographs from yesterday are very compelling. Is this the macer?

17. That pic was posted on the other thread as possibly being Mace "Man" |

It kind of looks like him, but the video doesn't give a clear enough shot to say for sure.
BTW one of the girls who got maced -the one who seemed to get the worst of it- was part of the topless protest (there's a shot of her in the photo series you linked to) Perhaps this guy has a problem with exposed breasts?

13. at 1:29 you hear the cop yell, "he just fucking maced us!" with his hand raised up |
|
That older white shirt cop coming out of nowhere macing the group needs fired, and arrested and sent to jail for assault. Anything less is yet another injustice...... http://www.zazzle.com/filthy_wall_st_crooks_laugh_as_protesters_are_beat_bumper_sticker-128495566324254519
