@surgephilly: Police officers pushed and threatened me with arrest at a protest in Philadelphia. After a Civil Affairs Officer demanded I exit a public sidewalk, I asked why. It seemed unfair considering that Palestine protesters were blocking the flow of traffic just feet away. The officers responded by using force so I complied and attempted to walk in the direction they originally pointed me in but they blocked me again and even threatened arrest. I eventually walked away from the officers and continued my work documenting the civil unrest unfolding at Rittenhouse Square. The Philadelphia Police Department usually does an amazing job in protecting Philadelphia residents but it seems some Civil Affairs Officers have a bias against me. Why do you think that is?
