Don't get me wrong. Many of the protested issues are valid. I strongly support the right to protest and it is one of the freedoms we have as Canadians which we should never take for granted.
More power to the peaceful protesters. Having said that, these car burning window breaking ignorant
vapid violent protesters are embarrassing. Obviously without enough synapses at their disposal to make any compelling argument, they rage like the sub peasants they are and belittle the cause of the people. It's likely they don't understand it anyway.
Just like angry children having a tantrum when they are unable to process their emotions, they should be put in a pit of snakes and pissed on ( not that I think angry children should suffer this fate. Only occasionally ).
OK, rant over. Thanks for listening

What is wrong with these people, thought it was to be a non violent one as the papers said.
(Sorry King I beat you to this one)
Protesters hit Yonge between Dundas and College at around 4:00pm, they turned west towards Queens Park.king21 said:Protestors are now marching down Yonge st, some store windows have been smashed

Check the news, there were violent confrontations during the stand-off at Queen's Park.png2 said:Documentation please.
Did not see that incident personally Adelle. Was this at Queen's Park, after 7pm?Adelle St Clair said:I watched this happen. A woman in her mid-40s wearing a green shirt fell down as police charged (probably at some ass who was being unnecessarily provocative). It was a line of riot cops followed by the horses, followed by another line of cops; the first line knocked her down, the second, with horses trampled her while she lay in the fetal position on the ground, and the third group arrested and dragged her off as she couldn't stand up. This woman had done nothing to provoke them and had been caught up in the madness around her: theme of the day. The behaviour of 'rioters' (not peaceful protesters) and 'riot cops' was absolutely disgusting.
Well said, I agree.randygirl said:They completely discredit themselves. They are not protesting anything, but rather taking the opportunity to smash things sans repercussion under the guise of political action. Embarrassing indeed.
Adelle St Clair said:A little bit of empathy, communication, and understanding would go a long way in this world.
Adelle
iceman_dci said:Unfortunately, it's not the police who should be blamed but the few "over stimulated" protestors that caused an otherwise, peaceful protest into a shamble and ruined it for people with the likes of Adelle.
Smells very similar to the OCAP bumbling idiots with their extremist actions.
king21 said:They are from an anarchist group called the Black Bloc, who pretty much show up at any major protest, and do as much violence they can and spoil the peaceful protest.
Police know who they are and have arrested many of them.

If ever I have seen anybody who deserves a beating it is these hooligans.
I mean this is in our backyard for fucks sake.
