"Their rage and frustration at them can break out uncontrollably even in the historically well-disciplined and polite Berkeley police department." What most upset Chicago police during the Democratic Convention was obscenity from women and disrespect to the flag. When demonstrators blithely pulled down the Stars and Stripes in Grant Park, several...
