-An escalation of aggressive police tactics toward even apparently peaceful protests at the Group of 20 summit meeting led to calls for a review of security activities.
-“Civil liberties are in rough shape today,” said Nathalie Des Rosiers, the general counsel of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, which had two of its observers arrested and detained. “We will have to have some accountability for what is going on.”

Perhaps you guys should watch the footage of vandalism, broken windows, fights, and burning cars. And as a policeman your supposed to quickly and accurately every persons actions and intentions in the blink of an eye amidst chaos? I don't think so, they were doing their job, protesters knew things would get dicey, most of them were hippies with no jobs, angry because they aren't allowed to smoke weed and walk around naked. Give me a break!
