I am interested in your story. Policemen are supposed to help the general public. What compels the cops to behave in such brutal manner against a peaceful demonstration? Do you think they are concerned? Or are they afraid? How has it affected your willingness to use your voice and sense of security?

Um I didnt hear about anyone getting maced on Brooklyn bridge. The weekend before sum ladies were pepper sprayed for no reason. Well no legal reasons.

I think "blocking the brooklyn bridge" is getting pretty near mace territory in my books.

It could be worse, a bus driver could've broken up the love-in instead.

protesters were corralled onto the bridge by police who are now lying and mis representing the incident.
