This is the raw footage of the St. Paul police repeatedly tear-gassing a peaceful protest at the Republican National Convention, having given no announcements, orders, or warnings.
I have to keep reminding myself that this happened yesterday in the United States of America.
Mainstream media has not covered the RNC protests or the extreme police response.

I have no idea if this footage is what Marco says it is, but, as Lindsay Campbell says, it is hard to reconcile it with the article in the Star Tribune she links to.
