Hmm military pulling demonstrators into unmarked vehicles?
Looked like two of the 'soldiers' were packing too.

Holy shit, did they just drag that dude off to Gitmo for being a protesting douchebag? Slightly Gestapo-esque, even if I have a hard time caring about him.
I'm sure they're National Guard though, they're allowed to act as law enforcement aren't they?

Actually, as the YouTube comments say, do you think it might have been faked to get the protesters pissed off?

Looking at the cammie pattern I say USAF, the guys rumored to be the ones that will run the internment camps.
So it seems perfectly plausible that the governor has called in the National Guard for extra security for the G20 does it not? I know that they're pulling in cops from all over the state to help out, why not the National Guard as well?

Fact of the matter is, G20 & WTO-events are like the Olympic Games in China. Protesters must be silenced. It's a disgrace.
But Alex, drawing parallels to Obama is very far fetched, lowingesque even.
I need around tree fiddy.
It isn't exactly detroit riots or some crazy riot shit like that... National Guards usually only act as MP, not as law enforcement... I would say this is some weird shit either way, since if the National Guard is called in, they wouldn't be in unmarked vehicles.ghettoperson wrote:

It looked a little staged, and the guys outfits didn't quite match.
Did seem to be carrying, hard to see.

And if they were dragging people off to concentration camps, as Alex thinks they'd either been plain clothes or in a marked vehicle. I'm calling fake.Cybargs wrote:

If military, they'd be wearing matching uniforms, and they wouldn't be driving a '95 Maxima.Dilbert_X wrote:

So staged.
Edit: OK; so it may be a '97 Taurus. Still.

But the haircuts the HAIRCUTS!!!

Why are they wearing the old style cammies? I thought that the military all switched to digital camo?
1 short youtube video and all the ... never mind ...

I stood in line for four hours. They better give me a Wal-Mart gift card, or something. - Rodney Booker, Job Fair attendee.
Its actually a Crown Victoria, but i agree with assessment as well. Pretty pathetic actually.DBBrinson1 wrote:

And now they've done this the entire of Pittsburgh is going to get destroyed by bandana wearing assholes.
Anyone else notice how the cameraman avoided picking up the license plate?
It would have been the first thing I would have gone for.

Looks kinda fake, particularly since two of them are wearing Multicam which isn't officially used as camo in the US military, apart from special operators that is. I doubt they'd have an unmarked Crown Vic and do it the way they did it either.
I'm sure the polize were letting cars in the area.
It may be fake. It may not be.

No way to be sure, but to me, just doesn't look like it was carried out by enlisted personnel.
looks fake unless its private security.
The guys are in different camo, no hats, no insignia and wearing different boots... its either fake or perhaps private security running in to grab their own infiltrator and to make it look like and arrest to keep his "cover," , perhaps it was time for donuts.
