Police state
The police allowed the cars to be torched and the windows to be broken, presumably because they were instructed to do so. It seems most likely that the so-called black bloc were hired by the state to cause mayhem, so that more draconian measures can be taken in future.
The police follow orders. They arbitrarily detained 200 people who were walking at Spadina and Queen street and arbitrarily released them after five hours. Their explanation does not make any sense. It seems that the police state wanted to intimidate people, terrorizing them, so that they would realize that they have no right to freedom of peaceful speech and assembly. CP 24 reporting of this event was clear on Sunday night. The Star barely mentioned this disturbing incident this morning.
A young woman was interviewed about being held in the detention centre for 33 hrs. in a cage. She was forced to use toilet facilities under the watch of male police. She was demeaned, given little food and the female detainees were referred to as --rats.
The Bilderberg regime trillionnaires are working on wiping out the middle class. That includes millionnaires --they are only middle class. If the Bilderbergs should succeed, we would become human livestock. We would enjoy all the human rights which livestock enjoy.
Nicolas Sarcozy commented that no important decisions were made at the G20. He said that the leaders needed to chat, just as you chat with your family and friends. (We the middle class can pick up the tab.)
