Last night was a big night in Providence.
They were pushed 10 blocks from the police HQ, harassed by cops and even a police dog was used to menace citizens.
They endured and returned to the HQ and finished on their terms. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318705635962220544

The police thought it was just another night for protesters.
They are reclassifying their attempted murder that landed Jhamal, a local rider on the last ride of the year, in a coma. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318711131469271041?s=20

The crowd is undeterred. This is one of their own. A vague "they" aren't trying to kill a nebulous "us." Providence PD tried to kill Jhamal. This is personal. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318711834942164993?s=19
It appears personal for police as well, watch them run and attack this man who is calmly walking away.
They hit him, throw him to the ground and knee his head/neck area before arresting him. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318723628049989632?s=19

Here's the cops kicking an ignited firework under an unrelated car that is turning around. The driver is an old person who is not protesting. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318731985272020992?s=19
No additional comment but this was wild to see! 
Bit of a miscalculation, almost cost them a van. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318732533350068225?s=19

In this clip, you can see a large cop in riot gear walk up and push a young protester to the ground.
The rest attack, restrain and arrest afterwards. Also needlessly violent. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318740334541590529?s=19

Finally, the cops chase protesters and press at a sprint into traffic.
A department being protested for running a scooter into a wall: here they are running protesters into traffic.
If nothing else, this makes the case that they're here to hurt people. https://twitter.com/AFriendlyDad/status/1318741865420656640?s=19
