| Description: | New Yorkers Demonstrate And Riot When one observes this footage one can only guess that there is definitely a split between cultural and political sides. The mounted police are trying to control the outbreak of this crowd. People are pushed and shoved, and in one case a man climbs a lamp post and as he hangs on another man is standing on top of his shoulders, kicking and jumping on his back. One man is pushed down to the street and as he is lying in the prenatal position men are kicking him. A policeman is leading a student or young man away into a paddy wagon. | |
