Cops Dressed As Protestors, Staged Fights at DNC

YOU ARE ALL LIES (0.00 / 0)

TEH POLICE WILL SAVE US FROM TERROR AND EVIL. THEY DESERVE RISPECT.

But srsly, I know a lot of cops that have been with DPD for years and I know them to instigate a lot of crimes. I avoid them as much as I can because I know that they are moody, stressed-out and on a power trip. This news does not surprise me.

And don't get your hopes up with anyone getting fired or there being any gesture of accountability. Pretty much they watch out for each other and thats about it.

Ask 'em off the record. They're proud of it.

We reported the initial event (4.00 / 1)

This sounds like what McHenry told me...

McHenry says he saw the undercover cops right away. They were all body builders in new black t-shirts wearing new bandanas and playing the role of agent-provocateurs trying to goad the crowd to follow them into a confrontation with the police on the West side of the park.

According to McHenry the planted police entered the street and the readied riot police pushed them back into the park from that side. As the crowd then tried to move to the East a second wall of officers closed from that side and started hitting protesters with pepper spray and making arrests.

Later he said he saw the body builders standing around a police van with uniformed officers, chatting together and watching the proceedings.
