CW: Police violence at Save NDIS Rally
It looks like I left before Victoria Police arrested a disabled person, assaulted a 79yr old man (A guy I know called Bob) without any reason, and then punched and pepper sprayed the person that prevented the cops from punching Bob.
You can see the cop rush at Bob at 1:10 in the video from 5m away and push him on to the road.
That level of violence against a 79yr old could be life ending.

In yet another example of the media going beyond even the misleading police framing of numbers, this #ABC piece about neo-nazi and convicted criminal Thomas Sewell crashing and ending the press conference of Victorian Premier #JacintaAllan includes reference to different claimed attendance figures, but in doing so, falsely reports that #VicPolice said 5k at the Melbourne M4A hate march. Vic police said 5k was the combined figure for both the xenophobic gathering led by Sewell *and* the diametrically opposed weekly anti-racist, anti-genocide pro-Palestine march.
