WESTWOOD, LOS ANGELES (KABC) -- Several protesters who were arrested early Thursday morning at UCLA are speaking out after being released from custody, sharing details of their experience.
Demonstrations - and arrests - have occurred in almost every corner of the nation. But in the last 24 hours, they've drawn the most attention at UCLA, where chaotic scenes played out as officers in riot gear surged against a crowd of demonstrators as they cleared their encampment.
More than 200 people were arrested, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
About 135 of them were processed in the parking lot of the Central Arraignment Court House, the sheriff's department said. LASD buses transported other people to the LAPD Metropolitan Detention Center. In total, there were 209 people arrested and booked.

Why is it “devastating”that there are less hate filled muderous psychopaths in the world?
Finally one item with which I agree from the criminals:
“Another student, who only identified herself as Illahe, said it was “pointless” for officers to arrest them only to be released “right away.”
They should be in the hoosegow until the cows come home or when they’re 80 years old, which ever comes last.
It’s been reported that over 50% of the people arrested were not students of UCLA.. Who is paying for these nonstudent protesters transport, accommodation, food, tents, printed signs and other amenities?????????????
Hamas supporters were released after booking with misdemeanor citations...DA's office does not usually deal with misdemeanor cases...Los Angeles City Attorney will have to decide what to do with these Hamas supporters...
It is possible that the City Attorney may decide to drop charges against most Hamas supporters...
I think that TV reporters are trying very hard not to portray Hamas supporters negatively...I changed the TV channel when some TV reporter interviewed some college kid who was in the protest...I did not feel like listening to some foolish Hamas supporter...
