Technically it was stairs, but it was the long, straight way down, at building height, so I used that as shorthand. On J6 they were pushing at least a couple of people over the edge, which looked like a 1.5 or 2 story drop.
It's crazy how much footage we had of the events outside the capitol, that anyone watching could see live, the day of, that got completely memoryholed. I saw people pushed and thrown over, live. I don't see it talked about much at all though.
Oh okay. i think i saw dudes fall, but I don't think I saw a cop toss anyone over. And it was literally fall, as in they were crawling up the wall itself and slipped.
It was a crazy time, so I could be wrong, but I do recall seeing people stopped from climbing up, and tossed back down...which is crazy considering the people coming up the stairs normally were just flowing right on past. They also did seem to shove a few people back over the edge who had already made it up, and were fully on the upper path...just shoved over the edge for a pretty nasty fall. If I'm not misinterpreting, it's completely psychotic. There was no need for that; it was a tiny proportion of the overall crowd, and it was done in the way to potentially cause the most grievous injury.
Climbing like that was retarded in the first place, but that doesn't absolve those thugs of throwing them back down.
Yeah, it's typically the NatSocs that downvote me, regardless.
I don't doubt you either. We have footage of the police just chucking fucking stingball grenades into the crowd who can't move, as well as shooting them in the face with 40 mm rounds.

Also, for the record, I'm not downvoting you.
