and therein lies the rub. it's not exactly easy for the cops to say yes, no, no, no, yes as far as who is a real protester, and who isn't. so, they tell people to move along, and then the problems start. people get arrested, pepper sprayed, injured, etc, and then the cops are the bad guy.
and people sit at home, watching on their monitor or tv and bitch about protesters getting picked on.
it reminds me of the military. people are all gung ho to get in a war, and then they start bashing the soldiers when everything doesn't go just right. easy to judge from the easy chair.
so, the foot soldiers and beat cops put their lives on the line, and the generals and chiefs of police give the orders, and people bitch at the guys on the street-cause they're all worthless, no good sob's.
