Then the group splintered with some smaller groups trying to make it to the security fence. All the damage was done by about 300 people that called themselves the "black... something" They were there for one reason only, violence. They give all protestors a bad name and have no interest in real dialogue.

I totally support peaceful demonstrations, but can't stand when the so called anarchists have to destroy things simply for the sake of doing so.

I with you, I have no problem with people who march and demonstrate, it is part of the rights that come with a free nation, but the small group of people you mention are part of a group of "professional agitators" who fly arround the world to stir up people to committ acts of destruction. None of these professionals have done a day of anything productive or meaningful in their lives.

And to all you people who call yourselves Anarchists:

I will be happy to pay to send you on a one way trip to Somalia and see Anarchy in the real world, up close and personal, then come back and tell me how much better the world would be under anarchy. I doubt I will get any takers.
Thanks for this!
