An unmarked police truck pulls up right across the street. Protestor approaches peacefully, and when asked what’s inside, the police officer says it is “equipment to handle the situation.” Protestor walks away, hands up, as those of us across the street cry, “Don’t shoot!” The officers begin to unload their guns and ammunition.

A small child joins the group of protestors, grips the megaphone in his tiny hands and cries, “Hands up, don’t shoot!” and “No justice, no peace!”
