In Tiananmen Square they used tanks. In Israel rubber bullets.
However, those who choose to challenge the policies of the United
States government in Lafayette Park will be discouraged in a more

"national security," "aesthetics," and "official immunity," has
effectively created a state where police vigilantism has become
"official" business.
