No... if what I'm seeing is true... a lot of these people will have lost years off their lives and risk permanent illness/disability. They may have been hoping for some short term brutality to show off, but I doubt anyone was hoping for this.

It's clever, short term brutality would get attention and be really noticed and then the protesters would heal and go on their merry way. But this will go below the radar and totally fuck up hundreds of lives.

If there really was a pregnant woman in there, I feel very, very sorry for her.
