Probably almost every one of them. The ones I have read about were all local political/community leaders, veterans and even COPS! The idea that these were the kind of people who were going to deliver savage beatings on uniformed officers is beyond absurd! Not to mention the fact that the protesters were essentially unarmed going up against armed police. As usual, you are completely wrong about the details and facts surrounding this episode, and are instead spewing character assassinations like they are going out of style.
So you can't actually document anyone of the over 100 rioters charged with assault as merely "acting aggressively". As usual, you are left without a leg to stand on. Feel free to paste those sources you read that limited the violence to "acting aggressively"...

The police must have been told not to use deadly force unless absolutely necessary...which is why Babbit was shot...she was climbing through a broken window into a corridor being used to evacuate members of congress.
One Metropolitan Police officer, identified in court documents only as "A.W." said he was pulled into the crowd, kicked, hit with poles and stomped on by several individuals. He emerged from the crowd bleeding from his head, with a laceration that required two staples to close.

Riot defendant and former Green Beret Jeffrey McKellop allegedly assaulted four officers, shoving a flagpole into an officer's face and then throwing it like a "spear," causing a laceration near the officer's left eye, prosecutors said. McKellop has pleaded not guilty to the charges.

I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.

"He said"..."allegededly." You know what would clear this up? The 17,000 hours of surveillance video the feds have in their possession and refuse to release. Why do you suppose they are keeping all that secret, yet have had no problem releasing a few snippits that appear to show the some protesters rioting?

unreal...if video has been released of each of those accused of assault, what might be released that would make them less guilty?

WTF ?

We watched that sh*t live on Television, and it was streamed around the world. Besides most of the video was recorded by the rioters themselves as it is. Nothing is stopping them from posting all the evidence they have to clear their names.

The Right is always right
He was term-limited out and had to hand the reins over to an administration that thought his administration had been "obsessed with terrorism."
Nonsense. Airline and airport security were at all time lows when Clinton left office. Bin Laden was in US military sights multiple times over several years and Clinton did nothing.

Facts matter. Lefty lies and mental illness do not.
 

Mick

The Right is always right
Maybe because it happened AFTER the Clinton admin was over ?

Duh....
Uhh, that makes no sense....you said Clinton knew Bin Laden would use commercial airliners in a terrorist attack. Clinton did ZERO to stop it. He refused to take out Bin Laden and did nothing to increase security. Your claim makes him complicit.

They hijacked the airliners on the day that they used them as missiles.
That was almost 9 months after he left office. Taking out OBL would not have stopped 9/11. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed did the planning for that attack. He's still alive today.

He is not complicit if he warned the people taking over the country before it happened.

When did Clinton learn they were going to do this? Bin Laden and Al Quaeda had been engaging in terrorist attacks against the United States and our interests for YEARS under Clinton. Nothing was done over it. Unless you are going to suggest Clinton wasn't President when he knew this then he's complicit.

Huh ?
Clinton caught and imprisoned the terrorist who attacked America on his watch.

You must have forgotten that 9/11 was the second attack on the World Trade Center, not the first.

I'll ask you again, special needs. Why did Clinton do NOTHING to stop 9/11 if he was POTUS and knew it was going to happen in time? Does that make him complicit or not?

What was he supposed to do? Go back in time and undo Reagan's firing of the air traffic controllers whose institutional knowledge and experience could have given responders many precious extra minutes of foreknowledge the day of the attack?

Yikes. Now you go back almost 20 years and multiple Presidents earlier to some bizarre rant/screed about an air traffic controller strike? ROFL. Half-man.

You ask what Clinton suppose to do? He had the same authority as Bush and was cognizant of an impending attack is your claim. What was Bush suppose to do that Clinton couldn't?

And anyone arrested doing so should be proscecuted. Do you have any evidence that an elected democrat instructed those rioters to go down to the federal building and fight like hell? If so, a federal investigation might be warranted.

Just how many federal buildings are we talking about? Was there an attempt by the rioters to overturn an election?
Maybe you'd better not tell that to the feds. They might go after camel and auntie maxie

All Bush had to do to stop the attack was continue the Clinton policies. But at what cost?
