NEW — NYPD cops get into verbal confrontation with protester and then violently arrest him by throwing him to the ground. I tried to get closer but cops wouldn’t let me. One cop (large man) violently shoved a protester (small woman) in front of me.

Didn't think of it that way, but you're right. In 90s was mishandled by police in my small town. I went after them to get trained how to work with public. Just short of going to media, they relented, got training.
Not everyone can/will do this. I want accountability and will fight.
A crisis of masculinity is when dudes do not realize that the nerdy, nebbish guy in a sensible jacket, earpods and a pair of glasses looks way cooler than the juiced-up, tattooed, heavily armed, uniformed tough guy.
I’d more impressed by this if dude was confronting a White Sergeant, Lieutenant, or Captain…not a cop ordered to stand there & take it or lose their job, unlike protesters who can take PTO, a sick day, or WFH to have time join the others
Also, maybe it's best to tell protesters to avoid the parade. He doesn't need more attention, and bigger protests elsewhere means his ratings are lower.
I wonder if the Charlatan in Chief will be sending the military there as well. I’m in L.A. This was an invented problem, there was zero problem until ICE raided the Fashion District and Home Depot’s. We are sadly no longer a democracy anymore 😢
Employee /guest safety concerns at Hilton Glendale since ICE/DHS is staying here. Please do a review, call, or show up on the sidewalk for a peaceful protest.

The officer in the white shirt is an on-scene commander, an Inspector / Deputy Inspector. Photo below is a DI spraying bystanders at an Occupy# action (remember Occupy?) with pepper spray. Even though it was one of multiple incidents by the officer, he only received a transfer. Typical NYPD.

Also, dear NYPD: you don’t need press credentials to record what’s happening on a public street.
No excuse for pushing, shoving and throwing to the ground by the police when dealing with peaceful protesters trying to be heard.
And Andrew Tate.
They can't NOT push limits. It's the culture we've all allowed to fester since MTV started *championing* that behavior style in 1991 on Real World.
It's a high for them to "out-man" another person, that isn't their Mama.

Solidarity! 💙
I hope she sues them.
Would be a 10/10 photo, but he left his AirPod in and might be listening to the Newsom podcast, we just don't know
Thank you for all of it, Marisa. Thank you for phrasing ‘kidnapped immigrants.’ ✊🏼
