The UT Austin protest got very interesting today.
Started with DPS police officers marching onto campus as a column.
Police came armed with batons, over 100 rounds of rifle ammunition each.
A few officers carried teargas launchers and AR-15s.

The column of cops plowed its way into the peaceful crowd of students.

Students report seeing numerous arrests of students simply going about their day.
As the column of cops made their way through the crowd they began making random violent arrests.

The students have posted a request for jail support either by calling for release or with bail donations.

So... the internet is FAST as all ways.
I believe there's already video of the moment Carlos from ABC7 was arrested.
I'm not sure these colleges and local PDs are ready for the backlash they created today.
Out here throwing reporters to the ground and dangling rifle muzzles in their faces on live streams. smh good luck with that
Despite the chaos of a simmering police riot, the student reporters continue asking hard hitting questions.

The OP has a bio that says "I religiously devote myself to Texas Football" and his caption for this clip was "Guy with camera gets rko’d by police".
... I'm not going to lie, I had to google RKO and I'll be damned if Chris from Austin who loves football isn't right about this cop abuse!

I see it like the average dog left alone with the box of dog treats or its favorite food left open. They just can't help themselves. They'll literally eat untill they're barfing and probably keep eating.
At some point someone has to come home to take the food away.
