Yeah its such a shame but violent outbursts like this are the exact reason security is necessary for the Worlds leaders. If only it were peaceful I'm sure it wouldn't cost a ton. Blame the violent protesters for the costs of security rising imho (And the taxes paid to replace said police cars) - not the G-20.

I just feel sorry for all the business owners, and other people who got their possessions/property damaged. There are ways, and ways to show your opposition to something - trashing the things of people who aren't even directly involved, and just happen to live near to where it was being held just makes this minority seem totally immature and cheapens anything they might be trying to communicate with their protests in the first place. No one is going to take that kind of person seriously.

I think the police are being WAYYYY too easy on the idiots who are vandalizing and destroying both public and private property.

I know they're being careful not to overreact to something in a way that would encourage more protests but I personally feel violated when a bunch of shit head hippies who don't know the first thing about life cause such havoc and destroy the streets of my city.

Makes me want to drive downtown and beat the shit out of some hippies... you know the cops would thank me for it too rather than arrest me lol.

these protesters are stupid. if you want to raise awareness about an issue you''re against, destroying local businesses and private property is NOT the way to go about it.

Its difficult for people in their situation to get any sort of rise out of the higher-ups, so this is probably how they deal with it because they can't think of anything else. Peaceful protests and political pressure don't do shit these days. The dominating powers have enough influence in enough areas that they can just continue to ignore your wishes. As much as movies might make it look like small militant groups exist all over and can work in collaboration to make huge changes happen via targeted violence and strategic destruction, that doesn't actually happen. So people in mass with no such organization do the only thing that they feel they can do. Find where the big guys are and go try their best to fuck them up.

Before anyone not smart enough to realize what I just said posts, let me clarify so I can just quote myself later if need be.

I'm not saying what they're doing is right, especially not their methods. I am, however, advocating and sympathizing with their feelings of helplessness in a system that almost always forgets about the "regular people".

I am also afraid for what might happen to Seoul when this disgraceful convention shows up here...

I'm OK with breaking shit to protest, say, war. Your government wants to enslave you and send you to kill civilians in Vietnam? Break shit.

Economic summit? Do not break shit.
My strategy is to fork people.

Isnt it always like this when they host g8/g20? As far as I can remember it happends to some extent pretty much during every major interational summit.

That being said - I wouldnt mind them using live ammo vs these guys since Im 100% sure its the same guys traveling around the world looking for a fight. I think theyve been trying hard enough and its time for them to give them a beating.

Economic summit? Do not break shit? I mean. I wouldn't break shit. I don't like the people who do. However keep in mind that our dollars pay for the tanks, helicopters and all sorts of goodies that make the manufacturers rich, and all because the upper-level government decides there's a "good reason" to go to war. I think the idea behind the vandalism is flawed, and it's really just a petty crime. It also shifts attention to negative aspects of people instead of the idea that "we the people matter".
