Thousands Protest G20 Summit

[i had intended to put this reply in response to those replying to my post. in my haste (after starting over sicne this crappy pc restarted the page when i was halfway though) i selected the wrong reply button. could an moderator please move this for me? thanks.]

because those who run the world's various governments would benefit from the total collapse of the global economy? get a clue!
oh, and the jackasses who got us into this mess were small banks giving loans to people who they KNEW couldn't afford them. then some jackasses on wall street said, "hey, maybe if we pile all the shitty loans into one pool, we can sell them to investors as A or B loans, instead of of a bunch of D loans!" (if you don't know what A, B, etc. loans are, GET THE HELL OUT OF THIS DEBATE, YA UNINFORMED BUM!!!!!) this worked about as well as taking a bunch of turds and putting them in one pile, therefore declaring them not stinky. THHEEEENNNN, some more jackasses on wallstreet were stupid or delusional enough to BUY those stocks, calling it "innovation" or something else equally positive sounding, equally bullshitty. and the rest is history.
funny, other than deregulation (which though it was somewhat helped by adolf w. bush, it's really been going on for the better part of a half century and therefore cannot be automatically attributed to any current leader), i don't recall any part of that having anything to do with government.
now get your facts straight or shut up. mindless anarchism is about as useful as getting rid of a brain tumor with a shotgun.
and to clarify my statement, there were some demonstators not breaking windows or calling for the end of currency , who actually had legitamate wants and demands (many of those very issues were being discussed by the G20). so as for the rational human beings, i wasn't directing that at you.

Rioting is not Protesting.
They went there to help, and wound up hurting people.

Don't they do this every year?

"Raar! We are -still- anarchists and anti-capitalists!"

Brilliant! Precisely what was called for! A staged opposition. With the protest organizers working for their corporate paymasters, the populist rage can be molded into a force that shall be driven to finalize our new World Government.

One Currency, One Country, One World.

For years all of us who worked and had anything from 1 to hundreds of Shares of company stock and every year when we received our proxies, it was clearly visible and blatant how the CEO's awarded each other hundreds of thousands and of late years millions of dollars in wages plus tens and hundreds of thousands of shares of stock of which produced big dividends and what ever was left over after they robbed the till was for the shareholders. The Bush years pushed the dollar market to its limits. It was like Bush intended to bankrupt America just so they could initialize George Bush senior's "world order program". So junior was an instrument of his dad and intended to destroy America from within. The Bush family has a history of destroying constitutional government. It was Prescott Bush Bush Seniors father who with a group of other big timers, planned a coup of the United States in 1934.Their plan was to install a fascist government in place of our constitutional government. The plot was exposed and Franklin Roosevelt just let it pass. I wonder if the fear of assination did not enter Roosevelts mind at the time. It appears to me that our government has a great fear from some one or some organization that keeps the government from making the changes necessary to recognize the American citizen. President Eisenhaur warned of such possibility. The truth of the kennedy assassination is still not released or known. It is a crazy world from what I learned about when I went to school or was it that I was just a naive patriot. What ever it was, this is a time to assess things and wonder just why the nations leaders refuse to appoint a special prosecutor and a tribunal to look into the crimes of this government. I know its too late but the Korean war was illegal and im moral just as was the Viet Nam war. I still think that Henry Kissinger should be prosecured for that war. These world summits are worthless and useless in view of the fact, who will trust the Americans who talk with forked tongue. Remember the Indians also blamed the US government with talking with a forked tongue and any treaties from the past were'nt worth the paper theymade the money from. So to bring myself up to date I wouldnt trust Obama any more. Instead of following through on his promise to reduce the troops he is increasing them. I just caint understand the brains or logic in Washington. I remember that the French Foreign legion one of the worlds toughest fighting units could not win in Viet Nam but for some reaason the American Advisors who eventially became a fighting unit were increased in number and many thousands of young Americans and vietnamese died and we left Vietnam with our tail between oour legs. We lost. In Afghanistan the Russians could not win even with 500,000 men and we still moved in. Now Obama is sending trrainers????? they called them adviswers in Viet nam now they are trainers. Does anyone really believe we are going to leave that part of the world??? I dont. Its Eurasia stupid.

yup... this sure helps get us out of a mess. protest all you want, but without a coordinated effort things really can't get much better. sure, these large economic powers got us into this mess, but they also have gotten you into school, a job, or what have you that allowed you to be somewhere jabbing on the internet on something called a computer. it's hypocritical to benefit from these countries and then get pissed when it costs you. i am all for peaceful protests, but if you are protesting you aren't solving a problem and if you're not allowing people to meet who could probably solve the problem, then you're making matters worse. the g20 isn't even this big of a deal. it's the g7 that matters. and before anyone tries to correct me on this, figure out the difference.

I'd love to go to one of those protests. Maybe yell "Riot!" then run away. XD

man i wish i was there........

From a friend of mine's twitter feed.

@luciobuffone:
3 Protesters have superglued themselves to a Tesco in old street

I honestly can not disagree with protesting. They have a right to protest much like we do all over the world for million's of different causes.

so they're mad that the fuckers that got them into the mess did with impunity. that's reasonable.
sooooo...why are they protesting the G20? the 20 greatest economic powers in the the world working to solve a global economic crisis? GOD!!! THAT'S HOOORRRRRIBLE!!!! give me a break, ya vandals!
i do like the fact that the writer of the article felt the need to inform us that the lightsaber one demonstrator was waving was "fake."

we should have millions protesting

sounds like a wicked good time
