| 951 | Sam Feldman | Excessive use of force by police officers in the field is a legally condoned political means to abusing people. Unfortunately, someone gets hurt every once in a while.
This type of abuse will continue until the Nassau County City Council stops condoning it. |

| 954 | Major Robert L. Hanafin, USAF-Retired | Military times newspapers that included Army Times, Air Force Times, Navy Times, and Marine Times, ran a survey of active duty and reserve troops that reflect disappointment in just how OUR ISSUES and CONCERNS have been manipulated, avoided, and downplayed by the media and politicians. When such incidents of blatant police brutality and undue force are used against Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans - it serves only to UNITE Veterans against those forces of evil in our society as HATE, INTOLERANCE, and OPPRESSION OF DISSENT. Beware the backlash when OUR TROOPS come home. Will there be enough police horses to trample thousands of pissed off Veterans? Including Guard members - I do not think so! |

| 961 | Robin Dale | The First Ammendment to the Constitution is ignored by most police departments until they are made aware of it through civil lawsuits. Here in Portland, Oregon the police finally backed off a little after costing the City several hundred thousand dollars in settlements! |

| 970 | Cynthia Whitman-Bradley | How truly shameful that this was going on outside of an event that was supposed to represent democracy in this country. This kind of brutalization needs to be exposed and ended. |
| 971 | Greg Giorgio | The hypocrisy of attacking soldiers who are asking
for redress of grievances with their government is
astounding and despicable. All charges must be dropped and a complete review of police procedures should be made to punish those who
gave the orders to attack peaceful protesters. |
| 972 | Anonymous | This is now exemplary of, first, of what can happen if one attends any mass political event, which is partly why we don`t go much anymore, and second, how, along with VA issues, how vets are treated.
This is obscene. |

| 979 | carol hirsch | This was a totally inappropriate response by the police and justice is not being done by proceeding with this case. Fee Nick Morgan now. |

| 983 | Alan Gerrard | It is frightening that somebody not acting in any way violently should be treated in this way for a perfectly legitimate protest, indeed a protest that most people in democratic countries would support.
At the least a public apology should be given by Police and Mayor and steps taken to prevent it happening again. |
| 984 | Michele Selene | |
| 985 | Nancy Mattice | Supporting the Troops includes ALL troops, even those who oppose the war, as Nice Maoran does.
The right to protest peacefully is an essential freedom that our troops have served to protect. |

| 992 | Naomi Feldheim | These young men and women are true patriots. They volunteered to give their lives for us. in service to their country. In response, they were being denied their constitutional right to assemble and to speak out. Shame on all of us if we remain silent. |

| 994 | Lois Roberts | when people demonstrate non-violently, the non-violence should be maintained by the police sometimes called the officers of the "peace". |
| 995 | JOHN ANDRUS | The actions of Nassau Co. police were a violation of the IVAW protestors constitutional rights. These people did not put their lives on the line to support a Fascist state as exhibited by this police action. We cannot have freedom without Justice. |
