Content Warning: Includes a video of people getting hit by a fucking truck, of course - no gore or bloodshed or anything else that'd run in violation of the PG-13 rule, luckily.
In addition, after a number of people were directly injured by getting hit by a truck, several more guards arrived and pepper-sprayed the crowd surrounding the truck, which included several of the people who were hit by it.
I think it'd go without saying here, but since NSG OP's are obligated to provide their opinion, it's frankly some sheer bullshit that peaceful protesters are on the receiving end of this much violence - violence which very easily could've escalated into death, in this case, had somebody been crushed by the truck. I guess that's the price to pay for standing up against blatant tyranny, though.
Thoughts, NSG?

Police sat by and did nothing, so it's highly unlikely there's going to be consequences for this attack.

ICE is Gestapoin the making.
Americans must dismantle them before their powers increase. What you see now is ICE testing the waters.
