The video that my camera accidentally took after we were maced. The visuals aren’t too good because I dropped my camera to the ground and wasn’t aware that it was on; however, the audio gives a pretty clear idea of what is happening.
This is incredibly fucking disturbing. My heart goes out to these girls. And as if matters couldn’t be worse, they were all arrested afterwards.
My name is Kelly Schomburg, I’m the girl with the red hair in these pictures. I was protesting at the Occupy Wall Street march yesterday when I and several other women were sprayed with mace and subsequently arrested. Many have already seen the video, which has been spreading like wildfire over twitter, Facebook, tumblr, and other video feeds, along with hundreds of other photos and videos. This is my recount of what happened.
