Police Attack May Day Demonstration with Tear Gas and Rubber Bullets.
LOS ANGELES, May 1, 2007 – An otherwise peaceful day of demonstrations throughout the city ended violently when the LAPD attacked [the right word is dispersed] the May Day march and rally in MacArthur Park today. A large rally numbering in the tens of 1,000s was driven from the park and the streets around the park. Families with young children were forced to flee as the police fired hundreds of rounds of rubber bullets and tear gas into the crowd. There are reports of many injuries, including journalists with a TV news crew. Some who have been hospitalized from their injuries. Witnesses report beatings with batons and many injuries from rubber bullets.
The first incident of police violence occurred at Wilshire & Parkview when police drove a row of motorcycles head on into the march. A brief scuffle broke out but the situation was diffused. It was the incident at 7th and Alvarado that sparked the police attack, which resulted in the complete clearing of the park and scattered street fights with police in the neighboring area.

More showing LAPD action was not unprovoked
So it's ok for protesters to throw things at the police???? Maybe in Mexico... not here...
I could see an investigation if someone was killed for crying out loud.. but in my opinion, the LAPD acted with RESTRAINT and in an APPROPRIATE manner as a response to violence initiated by the illegal alien protesters. But don't let the truth get in the way of the propaganda now.
I'd say they did a fine job of breaking up a bunch of illegal alien criminals who were getting out of hand. The only thing missing was a line of ICE buses to take them all home to Mexico.

Poor supervision and bad decisions by the Los Angeles Police Department may have helped facilitate the violence that broke out at an immigration rally on Tuesday. It turns out that the LAPD removed dozens of experienced officers from protest duty shortly before the confrontation that led to violence. The clash began when some protesters threw plastic bottles and rocks at the police, who responded with rubber bullets and batons. The FBI is investigating the matter, so we'll have to wait and see just how badly the LAPD screwed up.
