I've sat back and watched the coverage. Police cars burning. Police harassing seemingly innocent protesters.
Those same protesters destroying public property.
Then I watched videos of real wanna-be "hero's" confront police officers to prove some sort of point. Who knows exactly what they were trying to prove. Then I watched police officers, believe it or not, professionally handle these situations.
Then to make matters worse, I just watched a police chief admit he lied to the public.
There was no 5 metre rule. It was just a tactic used to intimate individuals into complying with searches.
The end result? There were idiots all over downtown Toronto this past weekend - Both Police and Protester.
In my opinion everyone should be ashamed at their behavior. Police should be ashamed at the abuses of power that their police chief apparently sees no issue with. Protesters should be lamenting the horrible damage those that destroyed property did to their cause.
In the middle of this stupidity their were no doubt true innocents not reported by the media who have experienced financial loss or a violation of charter rights.
This past weekend was not a good weekend for Toronto or Canada.
