Wow seems things are really heating up in the first day of talks at the G20.

This could potentially get really bad, I figured some violence would ensue, however it is the protestors or disinfo agents attempting to start violence?

The police are boxing protestors in order to keep them from escalating the situation. Clever trick to remove protesters from the general areas.

Just how many G20 scuffle threads do we need.

I think one one "hippie with a brick" thread is enough for this handbags at 20 paces kind of malarky.
