Thanks for filming this. It is important to not look away, to let them know that we protest what is happening, and keep watching their every move. Good on getting the car plates, the only thing identifiable besides their faces.
Who knows what they would’ve done if no-one was looking.
And good on the arrestees, some of the best passive resistance I have ever seen there.
But what gets me most is the amateurishness of the whole thing. The truck is totally unsuitable for what they’re doing there, they obviously wear private clothes, their vests seem to be labeled whatever (POLICE? ORE?) and they’re fucking helpless getting two guys who aren’t cooperating into a truck. A hastily thrown together troupe of willing goons. It’s a travesty, which just adds insult to injury.
And we literally don’t know who they are. Anybody could drive up and start pulling people out of houses.
I can’t express my disgust and anger - and empathy.
