Protest

I was just wondering if anyone in this community was there or saw what happened in person? I watched the video and the video showed that they did not block a fire truck as far as I can tell they stopped and stayed off to the side. In case you are wondering what I am talking about: Read more... )

a real video needs to be released that actually shows what happens. Not some edited video that only shows snippets of things. Until then, nobody can talk

That's why I was asking if anybody was there or actually witnessed it. Quite frankly, nobody but the protesters are going to have a complete video. I mean who else would be taping the whole thing.

The one I keep seeing was posted by a protester that took a video. Its obviously edited. I wonder if the person that took it will release the raw footage.

Who will she release the entire footage to? The tv station isn't going to show 2 hours of film, and it wouldn't be smart to give them the entire thing so they can piece together whichever parts THEY want. I can suggest to her that she release the entire fire truck section but I think they might be planning that for the next special council meeting.

release it on youtube. There is also a video hosting site where I first saw the video. Maybe the entire 2 hours is not needed but there needs to be a lot more footage than small clips of people being taken down or in handcufs but nothing to indicate what led up to it.

The one I saw had footage of before the police even got there, but it was choppy as well and hard to tell what was happening. At least there is a video, because otherwise we would mostly be stuck with he said, she said. I was hoping there would be some witnesses who weren't involved that could shed light one way or another.
