How about all the property damage to people's cell phones, cameras, etc? What if there were elderly people there (which I'm pretty sure there were)?

This is not about the rain dude. It is about the fact the Police thought it is ok to hold all these people for 2.5 hours and get away with it. Like Graham says we dont know the conditions of those people, there could have been kids and old people with nowhere to go.

I just cant believe poeple find nothing wrong with this picture.

cp24 gives the whole scoop on that! they knew most of them were innocent but had to keep them held up to find the baddies lol

it's not ok to vandalize and create riots either man you're like the most negative person ever all you do is complain about all these conspiracy theories, not saying you're all wrong but your approach is so discrediting

that's what I was saying too
both him and Jay are so biased and skewed one way that it seems there is no way out of this argument, it's going in circles

if it was the "Reds" in the power I still would have been condemning them too.

Where on any of my posts I said that I support the violents? I fully support the protests but do not put words in my mouth. I'm all for the freedom of speach and when that is taken away from the citizens I have BIG issues with that. Stop looking at the protestors in a negative way since cleerly you dont understand their nature.

conspiracy theories? such as? I may be very opinionated but not negative and I actually do care for our freedom and our freedom of speech and just because I care it doesn�t make me a negative person on bit.

The biggest police beatdown in Toronto history is about to end ... thank dear Lord. The madness is finally over.

Now the question is - will the government foot the bill for the cleanup / repairs to damaged property, or will City of Toronto foot the bill? The debate is on.

one could say the same about your arguments.

Its called having a consistent point of view

You can have a consistent point of view and still be narrow-minded.

thats true and its possible not to be that way.

If you are accusing me of being narrow minded you obviously dont know me very well.

The federal government won't be paying for any damages resulting from the protests.. I guess the City of Toronto will have to end up paying. Pretty shitty. I was wondering.. are businesses usually insured against rioting / vandalism damages, or are these sort of damages seen as one-offs?

Of all the police brutality stories I've read on this G20/G8 thing, this had to be the worst one of them all. The way police have handled this event is truly appalling, especially the way they allowed so much carnage to happen and then they arrested many innocent people like this gentleman in violation of whatever-the-laws-and-common-sense that you can think of.

Police state it was, for this event. Sad that there is little criticism of the way police have handled things with Israeli-style brutality.

Kinda puts a dent on Canada Day celebrations, the ugly stories like this really put a damper on the already chilly day.

TTC worker caught in G20 police sweep

quote:

July 01, 2010 Carola Vyhnak A TTC fare collector spent a �terrifying� 36 hours in custody after being arrested in uniform on his way to work during Saturday�s G20 summit protests. Benjamin Elroy Yau, 37, said he was walking along College St. to the Queen�s Park subway station before his 6 p.m. shift when two police officers �tackled� him to the ground and yelled at him to stop resisting arrest. �I told them I wasn�t resisting arrest, that I was on my way to work. I was in full uniform with TTC shirt, pants, full ID, my employee card, everything,� Yau said on Wednesday. �They said, �Really? Well, you�re a prisoner today.� � Moments before, another man had run into him but kept going, Yau said, adding that man was also arrested. There was no protest in sight and not many people in the street, he said. Berating Yau and swearing at him for being an �embarrassment� to the TTC, officers dragged him half a block in handcuffs and shackles and threw him into a paddy wagon, he said. After a TTC supervisor arrived to vouch for him, he thought he�d be released but was sent to the Eastern Ave. detention centre instead. �I was petrified, I was shocked. I was essentially arrested for going to work,� said Yau, who is still traumatized by the experience. �It was just martial law. I had no rights.� In custody, he went through �sheer terror� as he listened to other prisoners screaming and tried to sleep on a bloodied concrete floor. He was denied a phone call and fed only a �disgusting� cheese sandwich that he used for a pillow, Yau recalled. His hands were cuffed the whole time. Four charges that included resisting arrest and obstructing justice were dropped before he was released at 2 a.m. on Monday, a day after the start of a week�s vacation, he said. The booking sergeant told him he was in the �wrong place at the wrong time,� said Yau, who�s worked for the TTC for three years and never been in trouble with the law TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
