Defend Palestine Emergency Demo

Page 2 -Police Thwart Attacks on Protestors and Press

A demonstrator is challenged verbally prior to attack

the apparent agressor goes down fast, whining and claiming victimhood...

But nobody's buying.

Police separate the combatants, refusing to take sides

Seeking sympathy? (out of sequence)

Police turn their backs on protestors and face the counterprotestors

A photographer is assaulted for (get this...) taking pictures

I wonder whether he got the shot

Boston Cops intervene again, this time to protect the photographer

The agressor pictured above seemed to feel the right to call attention to himself, yet did not appreciate the photographer's responsibility to document this public "expression."

Police continue to face counterprotestors
