Madrid riot police have cleared Plaza de Neptune of protesters, with about 200 officers securing the surrounding blocks. At least 60 people have been injured and 26 arrested as police used batons and rubber bullets to disperse the crowd.
Local emergency services have confirmed that at least 60 people, including eight policemen, were injured in clashes between police and protesters, El Pais reports. One of the wounded is believed to be in critical condition, while one of the injured policemen suffered a severe concussion.
Riot police dispersed the protesters, dragging some who had tried to get through police lines by their arms and legs. An uneasy order was restored and reinforcements were brought in to try and disperse the crowd.
Thirteen of those arrested have been detained after a group of protesters tried to break through the police barrier for the first time. Further arrests were carried out during the following clashes, bringing the total number of arrests to some 60, El Pais reported.
Authorities estimate that about 6,000 people took part in Tuesday’s protest. Over 1,300 riot police officers were deployed in the capital, which is more than a half the country’s riot police force.

These protesters were unarmed.
If somebody wearing a uniform beat me in the fashion that I have viewed via these videos, …. well, somebody is gonna pay!
I’d take my time, I’d choose my place, and I find anybody wearing a uniform and give them a taste of their own medicine.
What I don’t comprehend is why people are not posting the home addresses of every cop in town.

I think its Great! when someone else is doing it…. not me.
I agree with comments from both Calm and prov6yahoo. I have to say though, I don’t think I’d have the ability to make my disgust with austerity meausres known and take it public. 15 cops on one human? As per picture!
As far as banksters go, history appears to repeating itself. When the fraud, waste, and abuse is going the banksters way, everythings cool. But when push comes to shove, and the banks have to look the flucking balance sheets, everyone else has to suffer.
Look at the periods before world war I & II the banks were wetting their pants in an orgasm of spending. And just like now they want us to pay with out own money to bail them out.
Need somemore banksters to start cleaning up the system. Preferably not by committing suicide. Just stop stealing and making the ordinary populace oay for it.
