The police aggression is getting ridiculous.

My university is right next to a soccer stadium holding a Confederation's Cup game. Since the effect of these and other upcoming sporting events on public works is a major cause of vindication, a large group of protesters tried to move near the stadium and ended up clashing with riot troops. I was at one of entrances into campus, when police started throwing tear gas and shooting rubber bullets almost indiscriminately while yelling that anybody who stayed was going to get beaten.
