In the aftermath of what can only be described as a truly tragic week in the United States, an image of a woman peacefully protesting in Baton Rouge while being grabbed by police ******rs in riot gear is making waves on social media.
The image, taken on Saturday, is a startling juxtaposition. The woman is poised and calm as she stands in a beautiful summer dress. ******rs, decked out in helmets, arm and shin guards, and bulletproof vests approach her.*
Behind them, a squadron of ******rs in SWAT gear stand at the ready, some with rifles drawn.
