Serve & Protect?

In "the land of the free" when the People exercise a Constitutionally-guaranteed right to peaceably assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances, how does the government respond?

Once again the police are used as bully-boys, and they seem to enjoy the role.
Serve and Protect.
Yeah.
Serve the rich.
Protect the powerful.

Oakland cops, you're a disgrace.
