quite frankly, I think the prosecutors need to be a little more vigiliant about arresting those engaged in civil disobediance. maybe they'd have less time on their hands to dream up lawsuits against the police, then

If these protestors weren't so vile and disgusting smelling maybe the horses wouldn't have freaked out so much!

Typical leftist tactic. Push the envelope to the absurd and then when the other side resists make them pay for it with legal harassment. The goal is to make law enforcement reluctant to interfer.

Message to the Communist Facist Liberals who claim there patriotic but do simply nothing but protest and complain all day: Cry me a river, build a bridge, and get the fudge over it!

Anti-war protestors are nothing but trouble-makers!

The protestors should actually THANK the police for beating them. This way they get to experience the true feelings of the innocent civilians brutalized by the dictators. The experience is priceless.

Let me get this straight. The cops were brutal to them but it's taken them 4 months to file a complaint about it. If it was so bad why weren't they getting lawyers to sue later the day it happened?

Sounds to me they just want to get their names and anti-war cause in the news again because they are LA-HOO-ZERS!!!!!!

It is best to support everyone's right to protest, even if you don't agree with them. Some day you will be the minority protester and you don't want to hear your own words used against you in court. This is a free country and dissent is permitted, patriotic and necessary to keep it a free country.

If they have the nerve to protest the war in NYC after what happened on Sept. 11th then they have to suffer the consequences! The NYPD was perfectly justified in what they did and so were the good citizens of New York City who poured coffee over them when they blocked traffic by laying down in the middle of the street.

Next time, the cops should back their horses into the crowd and plant some apples on their fugly faces.

"Some were held for hours without toilet access, food, water or medical supplies, the suit says."

Wow. This sounds much worse than the years that children were held in Saddam's prisons. /sarcasm...

They are dam lucky they weren't put in with other prisoners. Too many coddled anti-american peaceniks can't even take getting arrested then don't act like jerks and just protest peacefully!

Faked videos as evidence for anti-war protestors:

In NYC they covered the cameras and lens of police that were using video cams to film NYPD as protestors got in way of cops and caused incidents.

In one media taken video that made the TV news that night a protestor actually attacked and knocked down a police horse, injuring the horse and the police officer.

Set-up angle of camera, blocking all protestor*s actions, then just showing their flailing arms, screaming, and falling down...

I went to the big rally in DC this spring. There were no arrests because there were, like, no cops. Seriously. I think I saw two the entire day.

The police must really hate us, if they'd boycott us like that. ;D

They pepper-sprayed a police horse in the eyes that day. Can you imagine? They were trying to make the horse go berserk, I think.
