She (the TiF) doesn't seem very bright. And I'm sure the whole experience was terrifying for her.

The police are sometimes aggressive towards protestors - I saw it firsthand when I protested Iraq War II. They would scream at us to get on the sidewalk when we were already on the sidewalk. And the protestors at the anti-war rallies I went to were mostly well-dressed professionals on their lunch hour, and middle-class moms pushing strollers, so not exactly a fearsome mob.

And that was years ago, before the police got all the US military equipment and started training in Israel, which seems to have convinced them that we are all insurgents.
