6:04Now PlayingTYT field reporter Nomi Konst was covering recent protests. During a brief interruption in filming, a cop began yelling, “She’s not a reporter!” to his fellow officers. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, hosts of The Young Turks, discuss. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"On Friday, during Inauguration Day protests, D.C. police arrested 230 demonstrators after corralling them at 12th and L streets NW. Defense attorneys and some of those arrested are likening the treatment to the problematic mass arrests at Pershing Park nearly 15 years ago, saying these protesters, too, were “trapped and detained” and then arrested without being given dispersal orders.
But law enforcement authorities say there are key differences.
Unlike the Pershing Park demonstrators, police said Friday’s protesters went on a well-planned, four-square-block rampage through downtown with hammers and crowbars, breaking store and car windows, setting a vehicle on fire and causing destruction estimated to be in excess of $100,000.
Interim D.C. police chief Peter Newsham said that officers strategically maneuvered to get in front of the demonstrators with the goal of trapping them, but only after property had been destroyed. Sgt. Matthew Mahl, the chairman of the police union, said that once violence occurs, “we don’t need to issue dispersal orders.””*
