you do the math.



from the same AP article;

A total of 284 people were arrested on the first day, 130 of which are facing felony riot charges...

and;

Officers said they were prepared, and responded by taking down dozens of “anarchists” causing chaos in the streets. As protesters ran wild through the capital streets, some went as far as to break windows of police cars and store fronts...



um...

"dozens" of "anarchists" equals 284 arrests and 130 felony charges?

it begs the question: just who did they arrest, and why?

Cops have the people by the balls because they know how expensive and how big of a pain in the butt it is to fight the charges. Lots of government paid prosecuters, and precious few gov't paid defense attorneys.
