Police violated civil rights and acted illegally during G20. So what?


 Posted on May 16th, 2012

Another report, another day no one will be held to account. At least this time around it looks closer to the truth, but ultimately the question is, so what? Just more “recommendations” for the police to ignore.

Even officers in place thought the situation untenable, with one describing the incident commander as “maniacal,” the report says. “Where are they going to give them a chance to disperse?” one officer asked. “They aren’t, that’s the problem,” another replied. “Well, that’s stupid.”
