How 'bout you quit being a lazy fuck and Google it?
rusvik nailed it in his reply to you. It's all well documented. Every time there's a G7 or Gwhatever summit anywhere, these folks come out in droves.

You and rusvik sound as crazy as me saying 9/11 was an inside job (it was, btw). It's not like they're shuttling hundreds or thousands of people around the world for any given event.
You can this an "organized movement" as much as you can call Islamic radicalism an organized movement.

Of course they're busing people in man. Or people are traveling to these events on their own or in small groups to meet like minded people. Protest groups, anarchists and whatnot, come from all over every time an event like this happens. Not by the 100s of thousands, but enough to cause a problem, and of course they are well organized.
And you're an idiot if you don't think radicalized Islam is an organized movement.
*sigh*
So I'm assuming you're ok with the RCMP classifying the "anti-petroleum movement" as a national security threat? It's pretty much along the same lines as this.
*sigh*? You're getting all huffy because I don't buy into your tinfoil hat conspiracies?
I don't know much about the "anti-petroleum movement", but if they have designs on sabotaging drilling or blowing up pipelines, then yeah, they are a threat.
And just to be clear, I have no problem with the majority of protesters, whatever their cause. Freedom to associate, gather, speak... they are the cornerstones of a democratic society. However, if you come to town to assault people and destroy property then I've got no problem with a teargas canister to the face.
Don't change the focus. You were just implying that any time there's a "protest" it's organic and solely based on the issue on hand, well by the time it comes down to squaring off with riot police - and this includes most of that bullshit in Ferguson - it's usually not.
I've seen heaps and heaps of bullshit through the years living near Union Square in NYC, but the worst were the highly organized "anti-war protests" that seemed to be almost daily, where white assholes with dreads would literally weep over pictures of US casualties.
This went on from around 2005 until November 2008 - when they stopped on the dime and I have not seen one since. There's been no shortage of war since 2008 - a lot more in some theatres, even. The "anti-war" movement clearly did not give a fuck about current wars or ending them - totally devoid of principle.
The post is still completely on track. If you assault police, expect repercussions.
I never understood trying to verbally abuse, trying to get physical with cops, and people still do, ass whopping waiting to happen.
I agree with the physical part. But kissing cops asses all the time and having to act like you're a child around a powerful adult when around them only legitimizes their power monopoly in their own minds.
If you put them on a respect pedestal they'll start to believe they're special and deserve that power. They will demand it. When in reality all politicians, cops, etc should keep in mind they work for the fucking people not the other way around.
So I think verbal abuse is great. We need to keep their fucking egos in check especially when they show unnecessary force.
heh, you're the conspiracy theorist on this one, not me.
You believe these are highly organized movements, where "leaders" are shuttling hundreds / thousands of people around from city to city. Whereas I think it's just a bunch of young people with the same ideology finding each other on places like Facebook, and saying, "hey, let's go protest an ABC University!". Then they find their own way there, yell at some cops, then most probably return to their dorms to smoke weed.
Aside from that, as I stated above, I agree with you. If you want to pick a fight with a bunch of well trained, well armed guys in full body armour, by all means go for it, but don't complain when you get hurt.
It's actually the opposite. Police jumped in to block their peaceful protest... but nice try. It's not like they were looting stores or fucking shit up, they were protesting peacefully. Perhaps you've been too far from here for too long so you think all protesters are some kind of fucked up hooligans or whatever the hell you guys have in Europe, but it's not the case here. I am in Quebec right now and have been seeing this whole thing unfold live in front of me.
May I ask, what type of infrastructure are the police protecting? They were holding that line for a reason. What's behind them that they're protecting? Administrative building for the uni or something, I'm assuming?
Cops work for the people in the same manner that a Australian cattle dog works for the cattle.
Politicians work for the people in the same manner a child rapist works for the child he's babysitting.
Nothing. In the image I posted earlier they were just blocking the march. The march was declared illegal so police was sent to stop it. A few students decided to keep going and they got shot in the face.
Now I'm not saying the police had to back off and let them go, but Jesus you'd think these motherfuckers are better trained at this to know that shooting some kids in the face is perhaps a little too much. The tear gas would still work if you shoot near their legs.
The police tells you to stop doing what you are doing, and all of a sudden you decide to do the opposite of what they tell you to do, you are initially breaking the law by disobeying a order, now I understand some people might get offended and pissed off because they think it's wrong, it now becomes a physical confrontation. Now I am not a punk bitch, but I know when to start and when to stop, especially since they are the ones carrying, a gun, a pepper spray, a baton, and OH my favorite, the STUN FUCKING GUN, and few other items I don't have in my pockets.
And if you feel that your right's were abused, then of course follow the proper protocol, contact a lawyer, file proper complaints with the police, and just do it the right way.
