LAPD arrests anti-Trump Los Angeles councilman among protesters - CrimsonPhantom - 07-02-2018 06:33 PM
Quote:The LAPD arrested a Democratic Los Angeles councilman on Monday after he and other demonstrators blocked the entrances to a downtown Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center for about an hour.
Dramatic footage showed Mike Bonin, a fierce critic of President Trump, being led away in plastic zip-tie handcuffs shortly before noon, after police informed protesters they were engaged in an unlawful assembly.
Images and videos posted to social media showed dozens of demonstrators waving signs and chanting slogans, with several blocking access to the detention center's driveways and entryways.
Eighteen protesters were arrested in total, according to local reports. Bonin's office acknowledged that the councilman had blocked the entrances to the ICE facility, and said that those arrested by the LAPD, including a local rabbi, were released shortly after they were booked.

The big question is how many Trump supporters did he threaten to kill. Along with their family of course. If you are a loyal Democrat you have to make your quota of death threats or you will get bounced from the party.

It's not "kinder, and gentler" If anything it hurts more than regular cuffs.
But in situations where you are making multiple arrests you are going to run out of metal cuffs, Typically most officers only carry two sets so they tend to carry the plastic flex cuffs because you can stick them in cargo pockets, in the Molle webbing of external body armor vests, or even in your belt.

That hits the nail right on the head.

I've never had metal cuffs, but I have had the plastic cuffs after unknowingly being in the wrong house at the wrong time many years ago. I can attest that a) don't give people rides from work to sketchy parts of town and b) those things do not feel good. Just go get a couple zip ties and put them around your wrist as tight as you can and you'll get an idea

I've had both put on me numerous times in the course of training.
