A protester shows his wound after the police shot him with a rubber bullet while he helped carry Scott Olsen.  The bullet had to be removed from his body.

The Oakland police violated their own rules (page 9), and violated the Geneva Convention against targeting wounded combatants or those attempting to render medical aid.

Amnesty International has condemned the use of tear gas as well as the actions of Mayor Jean Quan of Oakland, who said the measures were justified because protesters threw rocks.

The Obama administration and Eric Holder have shown no interest in investigating.
