Sounds like what went down at the Repub convention in Philly in 2000. The police, who in this city are usually fairly sensible about protest groups, were apparently provoked by the Feds to go completely nuts about "invading protesters." Quite a few people were arrested, and the cases then thrown out of court long afterwards.
This kind of suppression of dissent needs to be watched carefully and acted on vigorously.
