Rational adults realize that cops are violent, dangerous and unsavory thugs, far worse than any other gang in the nation. Many college kids still believe the silly myth which whitewashes the enemy as if they were some how "good." The cops themselves have taught the college kids about reality.
Hundreds of heavily armed, club wielding cops (some reports say as many as 400 of the hoodlums) descended like drunken motorcycle gangs on students at Bucknell and nearby Dickenson. The cops did what cops do; beat, abuse, bully, victimize and otherwise brutalize the kids. The raid was a pay back for a minor traffic accident, but cops don't have enough sense or decency to know how to behave.
The thugs beat up a lot of the "dangerous" kids. They arrested two on felony charges in the hope that they could ruin a couple young lives. Cops like to do harm. About two dozen other kids were charged with lesser offenses.
The most important thing, however, is the valuable lesson that the kids learned: Cops are the enemy! Cops are BAD!
What we really need is cops to police the cops.
