Rage!
these days is the issue of Policing of Protesters. In her own
words:
"The
notion
that the police claim their pro-active actions kept the Ottawa G8
Protests
under control really makes me furious. And this while activist groups
let
police in on their plans and made it very clear that we had NO
INTENTION
for violent actions whatsoever. As if we are a bunch of uninformed,
aggressive,
dumb troublemakers!!! Sorry, I cannot find the right words to describe
my frustration." |
