This is one of the protesters in Cairo, Egypt, where things are much more likely to get worse rather than better.
But don't think this can't happen here. Below is a victim of the people's park protests in 1969 right here at home in Berkeley, California. Below is somebody bleeding to death on a roof in Berkeley after being shot by the Alameda County Sheriffs Department. He might or might not have been throwing rebar down at the cops, but either way, Gerard makes the point that real street battles are serious business, and a little pepper spray in the face is, to him, laughable.
Worth the read.
