There are reports of it happening, including eyewitness accounts - something which Christians assert the absolute authority of when it comes to scripture. Why are eyewitness accounts so easily dismissed here, then?

Originally posted by Whateverman View PostNice try, but it's definitely a semantic issue. Although pepper balls are made up of slightly different compounds, they both achieve the exact same thing. Claiming no tear gas was used without mentioning that pepper balls were used is misleading and deceptive. National scientific and regulatory agencies classify pepper balls as tear gas.

The "kidnapping" technique that some are whining about has been used for quite sometime now. The police are faced with two options when arresting a ring leader in rioting. They can either wade into the crowd 50 or so strong with batons and riot shields out to apprehend them -- something that is almost certain to escalate the violence -- or they can keep track of the suspect and wait until he isn't surrounded by a large mob and then move in for the apprehension.
Apparently either way provides you with something to rant and rage about.

The officer's clothing is clearly labeled identifying them as law enforcement as multiple videos and stills have attested.
They aren't being "kidnapped" but are duly and legally apprehended and processed.
There are multiple eyewitnesses that have attested to these facts as well as being recorded in videos and photographs.
Fail better.
