If you watch the video, you can see the flash bang go off...there is a bright flash with sparks, for lack of a better term, so it it's not a camera flash or anything like that. It is definitely the result of an explosive.

It would allow, for example, the Men in Black (or whoever) to a) get rid of youtube and b) redirect traffic searching for oh let's say "occupy wall street" to some other arbitrary site. Hijinks no doubt ensue. Speaking of Youtube, I've just spent a little time looking at a bunch of videos of the Occupy Oakland tear gas incident, and the police had to know the down protester was a vet. First clue, he was wearing camouflage. Second, he was standing right next to the guy in Navy uniform waving the big-ass white "Veterans for Peace" flag. And he got hit in the head at very short range? Not that it's less horrible if it happens to someone else, but I would have thought he had earned a llittle respect, or at least the right to medical assistance without further police attacks. And oh yeah, some of it's TV news coverage, probably copyright, tsk tsk, but that's the one where you see they threw the flash-bang from maybe 10 feet away at most. As someone says in the video, wtf. Possibly Youtube's last hurrah in the arena of citizen journalism though. On Sun, Oct 30, 2011 at 5:30 AM, Dana <[email protected]> wrote: > not sooner than *I* think.
