In this instance the police do not spray dancers but a man standing on the sidewalk at least six feet away from the officer and stepping back from the officer. This beautiful tableau is done under the banner of the LGBT Rainbow flag amidst the revelers of Pride in Seattle. Perhaps the Pride attendee was using GAYDAR to ensnare the officer and he was in fear of protecting his Heterosexuality. What we do know according to the
you tube site this was found on is:
Man pepper-sprayed to be released without charges! Judge found no probable cause.
There is a solidarity demonstration planned for Friday, June 29, starting at 8pm at Seattle Central Community College (Broadway and Pine in Capitol Hill). The colors of the day are pink and black. Remember Stonewall! See you there!
Update more info:
Initial police reports said officers were forced to use pepper spray because some in the crowd were threatening property destruction and refused orders to clear the streets. One demonstrator reportedly kicked a police commander in the knee.
So the police lie again. No wonder they arrest livestreamers and the press now.
