On the Front Lines of Dissent

The footage bellow was made available by I-Witness Video. The video was recorded outside the final presidential debate, where Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW) conducted a pre-announced peaceful protest. In the clip bellow, former Army Reserve Sergeant Nick Morgan can be seen getting knocked to the ground and trampled under the horse of a mounted police officer.  According to the report at I-Witness Video, there was “a delay in which Nassau County police refused to take Morgan to the hospital, he was finally taken to Nassau County Medical Center, handcuffed to a gurney, given Motrin and a prescription for antibiotics, and sent on to jail.”
