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) yeah even if it was protesting is peaceful the government still steals a bunch of money the tax in canada is ridiculous. 13%... >< this G20 thing is bullshit. G8 is already too much. we dont need 20 fucking countries. 8 is stupid. everybody should mind there own business. | ||

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. | ||

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... | ||

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'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. | ||

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. | ||
