Either these police men (and women?) are amateurs or they seriously lost control of their temper. Law-abiding citizens deserve to be respected, in every way and at all times.

One woman actually had a seisure after being tasered in the back. And these protesters weren't even the people of New Orleans who were living or wanted to live in the projects.
