Want to see what a police state REALLY looks like? And this will be good for y'all to see what you'll be up against when you decide to go "full militia" on the state. I was in the middle of this NATO summit protest in Chicago in 2012. None of us were armed. But this is what the city of Chicago unleashed on us.

Perspective is everything.
