    Does the arrest need to be legitimate or is it enough for police to want to arrest someone for no reason and then beat down everyone who isnt jumping to the side right away? I am asking because often many more arrests are made than people being charged after. And then charges often get thrown out in court.

    How did shoving that women from the back relate to any arrest when she was clearly away from other protestors? If the goal was to arrest her, there were plenty of cops arround who could have surrounded her and arrested her without violence. Or beating the shit out of the teenage boy who tried to defuse between the men and the cop?
