National Guard busts rave in Utah. They come in dressed in camoflauge with automatic weapons, nightsticks, helicopters, tasers, and dogs, which they let loose on the crowd. The crowd tries to leave peacefully, even though there is no reason to shut down a perfectly legal, insured, well-planned event on private property. The National Guard makes the owner of the valley leave her own property and starts shoving guns in people's faces and arresting them, setting attack dogs on them, and brutally beating people for no reason. When appauled partygoers refuse to give them their cameras, cameraphones, and other recording devices, they are knocked to the ground and beaten, their property is confiscated, and they are arrested. The soldiers throw canisters of tear gas into the departing crowd and continue to beat people who try to protest. Articles below. Videos are being passed around the net, not that hard to find if you're looking.
