Supposedly the policeman who pepper sprayed Occupy Wall Street protesters over the weekend was an isolated incident, but here is video of protester being punched in the face by NYPD.

This video comes to us from Alexander Higgins:

:snip:

In his YouTube description, Alexander provided some context for the video he shot and uploaded, “In yet another show of the rampant police brutality being waged against the peaceful non-violent Occupy Wall Street protestors, this video captures a NYC police officer grabbing a man by the back of his neck and then punching him in the face for no apparent reason. The man was then arrested and hauled off in a police van, presumably charged with some frivolous crime to cover up the unprovoked assault he suffered.”

The keywords are yet another show of police brutality. Any American who relies only upon television to get their news may be only just now becoming aware of the fact that there is a protest going on. (In a week or two, maybe the MSM will get around to telling them that the protests have spread to places like Chicago and Los Angeles, and it is getting bigger every day).

There have been more than a few instances of police getting rough with the protesters. Here are a few more examples:

3. It looks like he made the first move

Hard to see, because he's blocked by a body. But it appears the protester made some aggressive physical contact with the officer before the officer swung at him.
