It's hard to fault the police for protecting themselves from being pelted with bottles, plates, being spit on, etc. Still, lobbing tear gas into the group of people that were trying to assist the fallen Iraq war veteran is clearly gratuitous.

Last night in Oakland around 1000 people walked around downtown for a couple of hours. They can walk around the city until they drop for all I care as long as they don't break the law or disturb the peace. The news helicopters flying overhead is actually more of annoyance than the marchers.

BTW, I live three blocks from site of the Oakland confrontation.

This is getting too easy, but I'll use it again:

The police reports that came out of the Las Vegas Costco shooting assert that the perp did not listen nor obey their commands to drop the weapon/lay prone.

They're correct, right?
