Apparently the Boston police were jealous of NYC getting so much attention for police brutality so they decided to abuse a 74 year old Vietnam Vet:

If I get a chance I will go in to Boston and take some videos to post.

I am impressed, I could actually watch the video.

First video: Police make an annoucement(couldn't hear if they said disperse or need to move)
They walk over to the person holding the American flag(annoyingly yelling we are veterans of the USA, like that means they can break laws) I do not see anyone pushed, the flag does fall, but I do not see brutality in the video.

Second video; you can see the flags drop, you see people being taken away(dragged but I don't see them trying to walk.)

I see them escorting a frail older man, is this the veteran?
Upon the arrests, some in the crowd become aggressive, possibly looking like it will turn into a riot. At this point police have the threat to their safety to use force. The one man if he did not attack the police, he was trying to incite them.

I do not see brutality, but I cannot view this in full screen either.
I am not saying it didn't happen, but these videos do not capture it.

This. Occupy Boston is doing nothing but spreading propaganda and lies!

Things are very peaceful in Philadelphia. Their occupy group has support from the mayor, and are working very hard to keep everything clean, civil, and in order. They are doing their best to be self sufficient with help from donations. At least, that is the message I am hearing from numerous sources. I have not visited or participated in any way.
