Los Angeles, Mayday 2007. After a day of peaceful marches for immigrant rights, thousands of people celebrate international workers’ day in MacArthur Park. Kids run around, people eat ice cream and hot dogs, there’s music and dance. The band Fósforo plays the song ‘Guerra,’ and are suddenly cut off as the LAPD brutally attack the crowd. (more)

A rough cut. More to come! Check la.indymedia.org, video.indymedia.org, http://www.miwon.org for evolving news on the immigrant rights movement and the LAPD brutality. For more from Fosforo, check http://www.fosforo.net.

There were minor incidents on behalf of the protesters but nothing that could not be controlled with reasonable effort. I have been collecting video and audio since Tuesday. Thats a lot of megabytes so instead of flooding the beret's server i'll post some additional links. http://la.indymedia.org/ The main page has a lot of information of what took place.

IT WAS ALL LAPD. Although there have been claims that a small group of people began throwing rocks at them, this gives them NO EXCUSE to respond the way they did. I can assure you, though, the WPD would respond the same way if faced with the same circumstances. ALL COPS use the same fascist tactics, ALL AROUND THE WORLD! If you have pictures or video, please post them here. Thanks. The march in LA was peaceful until the LAPD almost triggered a riot with their batons, rubber bullets and tear gas. IT WAS ALL LAPD.
